Use and Care Manual

DO NOT POWER-UP THE DEVICES.

Locate the 8-position dipswitch on the back

of each of your Kidde Wireless devices.

Choose a random sequence of OFF and

ON positions and set all your devices to this pattern. The devices

only read the sequence when they are first powered up. DO NOT

USE THE DEFAULT CODE THE DEVICES WERE SHIPPED WITH!

Power each device up, push and hold the test button for 5 sec-

onds and verify all the devices produce an alarm signal. If all the

units do not respond, disconnect power, remove the batteries, verify

the dipswitches on all units are the same and wait 30 seconds.

Power the units back up and try again. If the units do not respond

refer to the user’s guide for more information

CAUTION: Due to the loudness of the alarm, always stand an

arms length away from the unit when testing.

Install your units using the guidelines in the User’s Guide and then

test again.

Test your Kidde wireless devices weekly to ensure changes in your

home, such as the location of furniture, have not interfered with

the reception and transmission capabilities of your system.

If your Wireless smoke alarms enter alarm mode, first check to

see if there is a fire. If a fire does not exist, and the test button

has not been activated on any of the units, it is likely that you

are receiving interference from a similar system nearby. In this

case, repeat the above steps and select a different dipswitch

pattern, making sure to disconnect the power and remove the

batteries before changing the switch positions.
