Fire: The red LED will flash in sync with the alarm pattern (3 long beeps).
The alarm will repeat this pattern until the unit is reset or smoke is eliminated.
Carbon Monoxide: The red LED will flash in sync with the alarm pattern
(4 quick beeps). This continues until the unit is reset or the CO is eliminated.
End of Unit Life: Two chirps and amber LED flashes per minute.
Alarm Memory: Alerts a user if smoke or CO has been detected in the last

Installation of Alarm
This model meets the latest residential smoke alarm standards, which
includes enhanced resistance to nuisance alarms from cooking. Industry
experts recommend that both ionization and photoelectric smoke alarms be
installed to help ensure optimal detection of the various types of fires that
can occur within the home. Ionization sensing alarms may detect invisible fire
particles (associated with fast flaming fires) sooner than photoelectric alarms.
Photoelectric sensing alarms may detect visible fire particles (associated
with slow smoldering fires) sooner than ionization alarms. Industry experts
†10-year limited warranty on alarm. Not a battery performance claim.*Self-testing is not a
substitute for a manual push test of the alarm. Perform a button test once per week to verify
proper alarm operation.
