FIRE SAFETY TIPS
Follow safety rules and prevent hazardous situations: 1) Use smoking 
materials properly. Never smoke in bed. 2) Keep matches or lighters  
away from children; 3) Store flammable materials in proper containers;  
4) Keep electrical appliances in good condition and don’t overload 
electrical circuits; 5) Keep stoves, barbecue grills, fireplaces and 
chimneys grease- and debris-free; 6) Never leave anything cooking 
on the stove unattended; 7) Keep portable heaters and open flames, 
like candles, away from flammable materials; 8) Don’t let rubbish 
accumulate.
Keep alarms clean, and test them weekly. Replace alarms immediately 
if they are not working properly. Smoke Alarms that do not work cannot 
alert you to a fire. Keep at least one working fire extinguisher on every 
floor, and an additional one in the kitchen. Have fire escape ladders or 
other reliable means of escape from an upper floor in case stairs are 
blocked.
BEFORE YOU INSTALL THIS SMOKE ALARM
Important! Read “Recommended Locations for Smoke Alarms”  
and “Locations to Avoid for Smoke Alarms” before beginning. This  
unit monitors the air, and when smoke reaches its sensing chamber,  
it alarms. It can give you more time to escape before fire spreads.  
This unit can ONLY give an early warning of developing fires if it is 
installed, maintained and located where smoke can reach it, and where 
all residents can hear it, as described in this manual. This unit will not 
sense gas, heat, or flame. It cannot prevent or extinguish fires.
Understand The Different Type of Smoke Alarms
Battery powered or electrical? Different Smoke Alarms provide  
different types of protection. See “About Smoke Alarms” for details.
Know Where To Install Your Smoke Alarms
Fire Safety Professionals recommend at least one Smoke Alarm on 
every level of your home, in every bedroom, and in every bedroom 
hallway or separate sleeping area. See “Recommended Locations 
For Smoke Alarms” and “Locations To Avoid For Smoke Alarms” for 
details.
Know What Smoke Alarms Can and Can’t Do
A Smoke Alarm can help alert you to fire, giving you precious time to 
escape. It can only sound an alarm once smoke reaches the sensor. 
See “Limitations of Smoke Alarms” for details.
Check Your Local Building Codes
This Smoke Alarm is designed to be used in a typical single-family 
home. It alone will not meet requirements for boarding houses, 
apartment buildings, hotels or motels. See “Special Compliance 
Considerations” for details.
*All First Alert® Smoke Alarms conform to regulatory requirements, 
including UL217 and are designed to detect particles of combustion. 
Smoke particles of varying number and size are produced in all fires.
Ionization technology is generally more sensitive than photoelectric 
technology at detecting small particles, which tend to be produced 
in greater amounts by flaming fires, which consume combustible 
materials rapidly and spread quickly. Sources of these fires may include 
paper burning in a wastebasket, or a grease fire in the kitchen.
Photoelectric technology is generally more sensitive than ionization 
technology at detecting large particles, which tend to be produced 
in greater amounts by smoldering fires, which may smolder for 
hours before bursting into flame. Sources of these fires may include cig-
arettes burning in couches or bedding.
For maximum protection, use both types of Smoke Alarms on each 
level and in every bedroom of your home.

It is recommended that you install special units which use 
devices like flashing strobe lights to alert hearing impaired

IF YOU SUSPECT A PROBLEM
Smoke Alarms may not operate properly because of dead, missing or 
weak batteries, a build-up of dirt, dust or grease on the Smoke Alarm 
cover, or installation in an improper location. Clean the Smoke Alarm as 
described in “Regular Maintenance,” and install a fresh battery, then test 
the Smoke Alarm again. If it fails to test properly when you use the test 
button, or if the problem persists, replace the Smoke Alarm immediately.

RECOMMENDED LOCATIONS FOR  
SMOKE ALARMS
Installing Smoke Alarms in Single-Family Residences
The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), recommends one 
Smoke Alarm on every floor, in every sleeping area, and in every 
bedroom. In new construction, the Smoke Alarms must be AC powered 
and interconnected. See “Agency Placement Recommendations” for 
details. For additional coverage, it is recommended that you install 
a Smoke Alarm in all rooms, halls, storage areas, finished attics, and 
basements, where temperatures normally remain between 40˚ F (4.4˚ C) 
and 100˚ F (37.8˚ C). Make sure no door or other obstruction could keep 
smoke from reaching the Smoke Alarms.
More specifically, install Smoke Alarms:
• 
On every level of your home, including finished attics and basements.
•  Inside every bedroom, especially if people sleep with doors closed.
•  In the hall near every sleeping area. If your home has multiple 
sleeping areas, install a unit in each. If a hall is over 40 feet (12 
meters) long, install an alarm at each end.
•  At the top of the first-to-second floor stairway, and at bottom of 
basement stairway.
Specific requirements for Smoke Alarm installation vary from state to 
state and from region to region. Check with your local Fire Department 
for current requirements in your area. It is recommended AC or AC/DC 
units be interconnected for added protection.
See “Recommended Locations For Smoke Alarms” diagram on the 
following page.
LOCATIONS TO AVOID FOR SMOKE ALARMS
For best performance, it is recommended you AVOID installing 
Smoke Alarms in these areas:
•  Where combustion particles are produced. Combustion particles 
form when something burns. Areas to avoid include poorly ventilated 
kitchens, garages, and furnace rooms. Keep units at least 20 feet  
(6 meters) from the sources of combustion particles (stove, furnace, 
water heater, space heater) if possible. In areas where a 20-foot  
(6-meter) distance is not possible – in modular, mobile, or smaller 
homes, for example – it is recommended the Smoke Alarm be 
placed as far from these fuel-burning sources as possible. The  
placement recommendations are intended to keep these Alarms at  
a reasonable distance from a fuel-burning source, and thus reduce 
“unwanted” alarms. Unwanted alarms can occur if a Smoke Alarm is 
placed directly next to a fuel-burning source. Ventilate these areas 
as much as possible.
•  In air streams near kitchens. Air currents can draw cooking smoke 
into the sensing chamber of a Smoke Alarm near the kitchen.
•  In very damp, humid or steamy areas, or directly near bathrooms 
with showers. Keep units at least 10 feet (3 meters) away from 
showers, saunas, dishwashers, etc.
•  Where the temperatures are regularly below 40˚ F (4.4˚ C) or above  
100˚ F (37.8˚ C), including unheated buildings, outdoor rooms,  
porches, or unfinished attics or basements.
•  In very dusty, dirty, or greasy areas. Do not install a Smoke Alarm 
directly over the stove or range. Keep laundry room Smoke Alarms 
free of dust or lint.
•  Near fresh air vents, ceiling fans, or in very drafty areas. Drafts can 
blow smoke away from the unit, preventing it from reaching the  
sensing chamber.
•  In insect infested areas. Insects can clog openings to the sensing 
chamber and cause unwanted alarms.
•  Less than 12 inches (305mm) away from fluorescent lights. Electrical 
“noise” can interfere with the sensor.
•  In “dead air” spaces. “Dead air” spaces may prevent smoke from 
reaching the Smoke Alarm.
Avoiding Dead Air Spaces
“Dead air” spaces may prevent smoke from reaching the Smoke Alarm. 
To avoid dead air spaces, follow the installation recommendations below.
On ceilings, install Smoke Alarms as close to the center of the ceiling 
as possible. If this is not possible, install the Smoke Alarm at least 4 
inches (102 mm) from the wall or corner.
For wall mounting (if allowed by building codes), the top edge of 
Smoke Alarms should be placed between 4 and 12 inches (102 and 305 
mm) from the wall/ceiling line, below typical “dead air” spaces.
On a peaked, gabled, or cathedral ceiling, install the first Smoke 
Alarm within 3 feet (0.9 meters) of the peak of the ceiling, measured 
horizontally. Additional Smoke Alarms may be required depending on the 
length, angle, etc. of the ceiling’s slope. Refer to NFPA 72 for details on 
requirements for sloped or peaked ceilings.
SPECIAL COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS
This Smoke Alarm is suitable for use in apartments, condominiums, 
townhouses, hospitals, day care facilities, health care facilities, boarding 
houses, group homes and dormitories provided a primary fire detection 
system already exists to meet fire detection requirements in common 
areas like lobbies, hallways, or porches. Using this Smoke Alarm in 
common areas may not provide sufficient warning to all residents or 
meet local fire protection ordinances/regulations.
This Smoke Alarm alone is not a suitable substitute for complete fire 
detection systems in places housing many people—like apartment 
buildings, condominiums, hotels, motels, dormitories, hospitals, health 
care facilities, nursing homes, day care facilities, or group homes of any 
kind. It is not a suitable substitute for complete fire detection systems 
in warehouses, industrial facilities, commercial buildings, and special-
purpose non-residential buildings which require special fire detection 
and alarm systems. Depending on the building codes in your area, this 
Smoke Alarm may be used to provide additional protection in these 
facilities.
In new construction, most building codes require the use of AC or AC/
DC powered Smoke Alarms only. In existing construction, AC, AC/DC, or 
DC powered Smoke Alarms can be used as specified by local building 
codes. Refer to NFPA 72 (National Fire Alarm and Signaling Code) and 
NFPA 101 (Life Safety Code), local building codes, or consult your Fire 
Department for detailed fire protection requirements in buildings not 
defined as “households”.
HUD MAP Program
Certain HUD battery powered Smoke Alarm applications, especially 
those that fall under HUD 223(f) MAP (Multi-family Accelerated 
Processing), may require a 10 Year sealed tamper resistant battery. This 
alarm does not meet that requirement. Substitute First Alert SA340B.
LIMITATIONS OF SMOKE ALARMS
Smoke Alarms have played a key role in reducing deaths resulting from 
home fires worldwide. However, like any warning device, Smoke Alarms 
can only work if they are properly located, installed, and maintained, and 
if smoke reaches them. They are not foolproof.
Smoke alarms may not waken all individuals. Practice the escape 
plan at least twice a year, making sure that everyone is involved – from 
kids to grandparents. Allow children to master fire escape planning and 
practice before holding a fire drill at night when they are sleeping.  
If children or others do not readily waken to the sound of the smoke 
alarm, or if there are infants or family members with mobility limitations, 
make sure that someone is assigned to assist them in fire drill and in 
the event of an emergency. It is recommended that you hold a fire drill 
while family members are sleeping in order to determine their response 
to the sound of the smoke alarm while sleeping and to determine 
whether they may need assistance in the event of an emergency.
Smoke Alarms cannot work without power. Battery operated units 
cannot work if the batteries are missing, disconnected or dead, if the 
wrong type of batteries are used, or if the batteries are not installed  
correctly. AC units cannot work if the AC power is cut off for any reason 
(open fuse or circuit breaker, failure along a power line or at a power  
station, electrical fire that burns the electrical wires, etc.). If you are  
concerned about the limitations of battery or AC power, install both  
types of units.
Smoke Alarms cannot detect fires if the smoke does not reach 
them. Smoke from fires in chimneys or walls, on roofs, or on the other 
side of closed doors may not reach the sensing chamber and set off the 
alarm. That is why one unit should be installed inside each bedroom or 
sleeping area—especially if bedroom or sleeping area doors are closed 
at night—and in the hallway between them.
Smoke Alarms may not detect fire on another floor or area of the 
home. For example, a stand-alone unit on the second floor may not 
detect smoke from a basement fire until the fire spreads. This may not 
give you enough time to escape safely. That is why recommended  
minimum protection is at least one unit in every sleeping area, and every 
bedroom on every level of your home. Even with a unit on every floor, 
stand-alone units may not provide as much protection as interconnected 
units, especially if the fire starts in a remote area. Some safety experts 
recommend installing interconnected AC powered units with battery 
back-up (see “About Smoke Alarms”) or professional fire detection 
systems, so if one unit senses smoke, all units alarm. Interconnected 
units may provide earlier warning than stand-alone  
units since all units alarm when one detects smoke.
Smoke Alarms may not be heard. Though the alarm horn in this unit 
meets or exceeds current standards, it may not be heard if: 1) the unit 
is located outside a closed or partially closed door, 2) residents recently 
consumed alcohol or drugs, 3) the alarm is drowned out by noise from 
stereo, TV, traffic, air conditioner or other appliances, 4) residents are 
hearing impaired or sound sleepers. Special purpose units, like those 
with visual and audible alarms, should be installed for hearing impaired 
residents.
Smoke Alarms may not have time to alarm before the fire itself 
causesdamage,injury,ordeath,sincesmokefromsomefiresmay
not reach the unit immediately. Examples of this include persons 
smoking in bed, children playing with matches, or fires caused by 
violent explosions resulting from escaping gas.
Smoke Alarms are not foolproof. Like any electronic device, Smoke 
Alarms are made of components that can wear out or fail at any time.  
You must test the unit weekly to ensure your continued protection. 
Smoke Alarms cannot prevent or extinguish fires. They are not a  
substitute for property or life insurance.
Smoke Alarms have a limited life. The unit should be replaced  
immediately if it is not operating properly. You should always replace a 
Smoke Alarm after 10 years from date of purchase. Write the purchase 
date on the space provided on back of unit.

ABOUT SMOKE ALARMS
Battery (DC) operated Smoke Alarms: Provide protection even when 
electricity fails, provided the batteries are fresh and correctly installed. 
Units are easy to install, and do not require professional installation. 
However, they do not provide interconnected functionality.
AC powered Smoke Alarms: Can be interconnected so if one unit 
senses smoke, all units alarm. They do not operate if electricity fails. AC 
with battery (DC) back-up: will operate if electricity fails, provided the 
batteries are fresh and correctly installed. AC and AC/DC units must be 
installed by a qualified electrician.
Wireless Interconnected Alarms: Offer the same interconnected  
functionality as with hardwired alarms, without wires. Units are easy  
to install and do not require professional installation. They provide  
protection even when electricity fails, provided the batteries are fresh 
and correctly installed.
Smoke Alarms for Solar or Wind Energy users and battery backup 
power systems: AC powered Smoke Alarms should only be operated 
with true or pure sine wave inverters. Operating this Smoke Alarm with 
most battery-powered UPS (uninterruptible power supply) products or 
square wave or “quasi sine wave” inverters will damage the Alarm.  
If you are not sure about your inverter or UPS type, please consult with 
the manufacturer to verify.

RECOMMENDED LOCATIONS FOR SMOKE ALARMS
WHAT TO DO IN CASE OF FIRE
•  Don’t panic; stay calm. Follow your family escape plan.
•  Get out of the house as quickly as possible. Don’t stop to get 
dressed or collect anything.
•  Feel doors with the back of your hand before opening them.  
If a door is cool, open it slowly. Don’t open a hot door. Keep doors  
and windows closed, unless you must escape through them.
•  Cover your nose and mouth with a cloth (preferably damp).  
Take short, shallow breaths.
•  Meet at your planned meeting place outside your home,  
and do a head count to make sure everybody got out safely.
•  Call the Fire Department as soon as possible from outside.  
Give your address, then your name.
•  Never go back inside a burning building for any reason.
•  Contact your Fire Department for ideas on making your home safer.
Alarms have various limitations. See “Limitations of Smoke Alarms” 
for details.
USING THE SILENCE FEATURE
The Silence Feature can temporarily quiet an unwanted alarm for up 
to 15 minutes. To use this feature, press the Test/Silence button on the 
cover. If the unit will not silence and no heavy smoke is present,  
or if it stays in silence mode continuously, it should be replaced 
immediately. The LED will flash every 10 seconds while in silence.
The Silence Feature does not disable the unit—it makes it  
temporarily less sensitive to smoke. For your safety, if smoke 
around the unit is dense enough to suggest a potentially dangerous 
situation, the unit will stay in alarm or may re-alarm quickly. If you 
do not know the source of the smoke, do not assume it is an 
unwanted alarm. Not responding to an alarm can result in property 
loss,injury,ordeath.

ABOUT SMOKE ALARMS, Continued
Smoke Alarms for the hearing impaired: Special purpose Smoke 
Alarms should be installed for the hearing impaired. They include a 
visual alarm and an audible alarm horn, and meet the requirements of 
the Americans With Disabilities Act. These units can be interconnected 
so if one unit senses smoke, all units alarm.
Smoke alarms are not to be used with detector guards unless the 
combination has been evaluated and found suitable for that purpose.
All these Smoke Alarms are designed to provide early warning of fires  
if located, installed and cared for as described in the user’s manual, 
and if smoke reaches the Alarm. If you are unsure which type of unit to 
install, refer to NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) 72 (National 
Fire Alarm and Signaling Code) and NFPA 101 (Life Safety Code).

Early warning detection is best achieved by the installation of fire 
detection equipment in all rooms and areas of the household as follows: 
A Smoke Alarm installed in each separate sleeping area (in the vicinity, 
but outside bedrooms), and Heat or Smoke Alarms in the living rooms, 
dining rooms, bedrooms, kitchens, hallways, finished attics, furnace 
rooms, closets, utility and storage rooms, basements, and attached 
garages.
REGULAR MAINTENANCE
This unit has been designed to be as maintenance free as possible, but 
there are a few simple things you must do to keep it working properly. 
•  Test it at least once a week.
•  Clean the Smoke Alarm at least once a month; gently vacuum off 
any dust using your household vacuum’s soft brush attachment, and 
test the Smoke Alarm after cleaning. Never use water, cleaners or 
solvents since they may damage the unit.
•  If the Smoke Alarm becomes contaminated by excessive dirt, dust 
and/or grime, and cannot be cleaned to avoid unwanted alarms, 
replace the unit immediately.
•  Relocate the unit if it sounds frequent unwanted alarms. See 
“Locations to Avoid For Smoke Alarms” for details.
•  When the battery becomes weak, the Smoke Alarm unit will “chirp” 
approximately once a minute (the low battery warning). This low  
battery warning should last for up to 7 days, but you should replace 
the battery immediately to continue your protection.
Choosing a replacement battery:
Your Smoke Alarm requires one standard 9V battery. The following  
batteries are acceptable as replacements: Eveready 1222, Duracell 
MN1604, (Ultra) MX1604; Energizer 522. You may also use a Lithium 
battery like the Duracell DL1604 for longer service life between battery 
changes. These batteries are available at many local retail stores.
• AlwaysusetheexactbatteriesspecifiedbythisUser’sManual. 
DO NOT use rechargeable batteries. Clean the battery contacts 
and also those of the device prior to battery installation. Install 
batteries correctly with regard to polarity (+ and -).
• Pleasedisposeoforrecycleusedbatteriesproperly,following
any local regulations. Consult your local waste management 
authority or recycling organization to find an electronics  
recycling facility in your area. DO NOT DISPOSE OF BATTERIES 
IN FIRE. BATTERIES MAY EXPLODE OR LEAK.
• Keepbatteryoutofreachofchildren.Intheeventabattery

your physician, or the National Battery Ingestion hotline at  
202-625-3333asseriousinjurymayoccur.
Actual service life depends on the Smoke Alarm and the environment  
in which it is installed. All the batteries specified above are acceptable 
replacement batteries for this unit. Regardless of the manufacturer’s  
suggested battery life, you MUST replace the battery immediately once 
the unit starts “chirping” (the “low battery warning”).
• NEVERuseanopenflameofanykindtotestthisunit.You
might accidentally damage or set fire to the unit or to your 
home. The built-in test switch accurately tests the unit’s  
operation as required by Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. (UL).

testing, step away when horn starts sounding.
It is important to test this unit every week to make sure it is working 
properly. Using the test/silence button is the recommended way to test 
this Smoke Alarm. Press and hold the test/silence button on the cover of 
the unit until the alarm sounds (the unit may continue to alarm for a few 
seconds after you release the button). If it does not alarm, make sure 
the unit is receiving power (LED will flash approximately once a minute 
indicating it has power); and test it again. If it still does not alarm, replace 
it immediately. During testing you will hear a loud, repeating horn pattern: 
3 beeps, pause, 3 beeps, pause.

1.  Hold base firmly and twist the mounting bracket clockwise to 
separate it from the base.
2.  Hold the mounting bracket against 
the ceiling (or wall) so the two  
clusters of universal mounting 
holes are aligned approximately  
at the 9:00 and 3:00 o’clock  
positions. See image. Choose one 
of the three sets of holes shown,  
A, B or C (see image) and trace 
around one of the sets. Be sure to 
choose a top and bottom slot on 
opposite sides so you can rotate 
the universal mounting bracket  
into position later. This will make  
it easier in the future to remove  
the mounting bracket without  
completely removing the screws.  
WARNING! Do not install this Smoke Alarm over an existing  
electrical box. Only AC powered units are intended for  
installation over electrical boxes.
3.  Put the unit where it won’t get covered with dust when you drill the 
mounting holes.
4.  Using a 3/16” (5 mm) drill bit, drill a hole through the center of the 
oval outlines you traced.
5.  Insert the plastic screw anchors (in the plastic bag with screws) 
into the holes. Tap the screw anchors gently with a hammer, if 
necessary, until they are flush with the ceiling or wall.
6.  Install the screws but do not tighten completely. Attach the 
mounting bracket by aligning the screws in the open portion of 
the universal mounting slots and rotating the bracket into place. 
Tighten the screws until they are snug to secure the bracket.  
Do not over tighten.
7.   Install the battery (included). Match the terminals on the ends  
of the battery with the terminals on the unit. Match “+” to “+” and 
“-” to “-.” Push the battery in until it snaps securely and cannot 
be shaken loose. If the battery is not snapped in completely, the 
unit cannot receive battery power. Fold warning label (“WARNING! 
INSTALL BATTERY & DOOR PRIOR TO MOUNTING UNIT.”) over 
battery, attach and close battery door.
NOTE: After you install the battery, the power indicator light may 
flash. (If the unit alarms, the light will blink rapidly, and the horn  
will repeatedly sound 3 beeps, pause, 3 beeps.)
8.  Position the base of the Alarm over the mounting bracket and turn. 
Turn the Alarm clockwise until the unit is in place.
9.  Test the Smoke Alarm. See “Weekly Testing.”

The feature uses a locking pin which is molded into the mounting bracket.  Remove locking pin by using needle-nose 
pliers or a utility knife. 
To permanently remove the locking pin, insert a flathead screwdriver between the locking pin and the lock and pry the pin out of the lock.  
OPTIONAL LOCKING FEATURE
TO LOCK THE MOUNTING BRACKET 
1. Using needle-nose pliers, detach the pin from 
the mounting bracket.
2. Insert the locking pin through the 
hole on the back of the smoke alarm as 
shown in the diagram.
3. When you attach the alarm to the 
mounting bracket the locking pin’s head 
will fit into a notch on the bracket.  
TO UNLOCK THE MOUNTING BRACKET 
1. Insert a flathead screwdriver 
in between the mounting 
bracket and the locking pin.
2. Pry the alarm away from the bracket by pushing up the screwdriver 
and turning the alarm counterclockwise (left) at the same time.
