BATTERY INSTALLATION
CAUTION! THIS UNIT WILL NOT FUNCTION WITHOUT A PROPERLY
INSTALLED BATTERY, AND IS EQUIPPED WITH A BATTERY LOCKOUT

If your unit was supplied with a yellow pull tab, gently pull the tab out to acti-
vate the battery backup once the unit has been connected to AC power and
mounted to the electrical box with the included trim ring. See MOUNTING

To install a battery for the first time, remove the alarm from the mounting
bracket and open the battery door. Battery installation instructions are provided
on the inside of the battery door. When installing, use the battery to press the
