LED Indicator Operation
Red LED
The red LED will flash in conjunction with the alarm
sounder. Therefore, the red LED will flash during a smoke
alarm, a CO alarm, a low battery mode chirp and a unit
error mode chirp.

Green LED

T

he green LED will flash as described below under the fol-

lowing conditions:

– Standby Condition: The LED will flash every 30 sec-

onds.

– Alarm Condition: The LED will flash every second sig-

nifying that the alarm sensed a smoke or CO hazard.

– HUSH MODE Condition: The LED will flash every 2

seconds while the alarm is in HUSH mode.

– Alarm Memory: The LED blinks once every 16 seconds

to indicate a hazardous condition was previously
detected.

Tamper Resist Features

To make your smoke/CO alarm tamper resistant, two tamp-
er resist features have been provided. The first is used to
discourage removal of the alarm while the second is for the
battery. To activate the mounting bracket tamper resist fea-
ture break off the four posts in the square holes in the trim
ring (see figure 5A). When the posts are broken off, the
tamper resist tab on the base is allowed to engage the
mounting bracket. Rotate the alarm onto the mounting
bracket until you hear the tamper resist tab snap into place,
locking the alarm on the mounting bracket. Using the
tamper resist feature will help deter children and others
from removing the alarm from bracket.

NOTE: To remove the alarm when the tamper resist tab is

engaged, press down on the tamper resist tab, and rotate

the alarm off of the bracket (see figure 5B).
