DC Powered in Battery Backup Operation
If at any time you test the alarm and it does not perform as described, have it replaced immediately.
Handling
• Do not use the battery for a purpose other than for the alarm it is
specified.
• Do not recharge the battery using any charging circuit other than the
one provided in the alarm. A recharging operation under non-
conforming recharging conditions can cause electrolyte leakage,
overheating, smoke emission, bulging/bursting and/or ignition.
• Do not discard the battery into fire or heat it under any circumstances.
Otherwise, it may cause the battery to explode. Do not connect
the battery to an electrical outlet.
• Do not connect the positive and negative terminals of the bat-
tery with any conductor such as metal wires. Do not store the
battery or transport it together with any metal objects.
