INSPECTION TESTING AND MAINTENANCE
The 1168 is designed for easy field service and maintenance. When installed and used
properly, the 1168 requires minimal maintenance. The device should be functionally tested
per NFPA 72 for system type smoke detectors. When a smoke detector requires
maintenance, the red LED blinks every 5 seconds.

smoking in bed or other furniture, ignition of flammable liquids, vapors and gases,
children playing with matches or lighters.
