Description
The Kidde i9010 is a 10-year, sealed battery, ionization, smoke alarm
with Alarm Memory and Hush
TM
feature. The innovative design of
this alarm’s automatic activation is unlike any other smoke alarm.
The i9010 alarm will automatically activate when it is attached to the
mounting bracket; there are no pull-tabs, no switches, everything is
automatic. At the end of the alarm life, the unit will chirp, indicating
the alarm is in need of replacement. The customer can use a simple
tool such as a screwdriver to deactivate the unit, stopping the low
battery chirp and making it safe for disposal.
The sealed-in board-mounted battery will power the i9010 unit
for its complete 10-year life. No replacement battery will ever be
needed.
This alarm uses ionization sensing technology. Ionization sensing
alarms may detect invisible fire particles (associated with flaming
fires) sooner than photoelectric alarms. Photoelectric sensing alarms
may detect visible particles (associated with smoldering fires) sooner
than ionization alarms.
Kidde strongly recommends that both ionization and
photoelectric smoke alarms be installed to help insure
maximum detection of the various types of fire that can
occur within the home
The Kidde i9010 sealed battery operated smoke alarm
features a self-activation mechanism making installation simple
and easy. It also features Hush
TM
feature allowing consumers to
temporarily silence nuisance alarms and an End of Life Alert
indicating it is time to replace the alarm.
At the end of the alarm’s 10-year life, deactivation of the alarm is
just as easy. Using a tool such as a small screwdriver, a deactivation
switch removes power from the alarm and renders the battery safe
for disposal. The alarm lockout feature mechanically prevents a deac-
tivated unit from being mounted back on the mounting bracket.
