1. RECOMMENDED LOCATIONS FOR ALARMS

• Locate the first alarm in the immediate area of the bedrooms. Try to monitor

the exit path as the bedrooms are usually farthest from the exit. If more than

one sleeping area exists, locate additional alarms in each sleeping area.

• Locate additional alarms to monitor any stairway as stairways act like chim-

neys for smoke and heat.

• Locate at least one alarm on every floor level.

• Locate an alarm in every bedroom.

FIGURE 1

FIGURE 2FIGURE 3

• Locate an alarm in every room where electrical appliances are operated (i.e.

portable heaters or humidifiers).

• Locate an alarm in every room where someone sleeps with the door closed. The

closed door may prevent an alarm not in that room from waking the sleeper.

• Smoke, heat, and combustion products rise to the ceiling and spread horizon-

tally. Mounting the smoke alarm on the ceiling in the center of the room

places it closest to all points in the room. Ceiling mounting is preferred in

ordinary residential construction.

• For mobile home installation, select locations carefully to avoid thermal barri-

ers that may form at the ceiling. For more details, see MOBILE HOME INSTAL-

LATION below.

• When mounting an alarm on the ceiling, locate it at a minimum of 4” (10 cm)

from the side wall (see Figure 1).

• When mounting the alarm on the wall, use an inside wall with the top edge

of the alarm at a minimum of 4” (10 cm) and a maximum of 12” (30.5 cm)

below the ceiling (see Figure 1).

• Put smoke alarms at both ends of a bedroom hallway or large room if the

hallway or room is more than 30 feet (9.1 m) long.

•Install Smoke Alarms on sloped, peaked or cathedral ceilings at or within 3ft

(0.9m) of the highest point (measured horizontally). NFPA 72 states: “Smoke

alarms in rooms with ceiling slopes greater than 1 foot in 8 feet (.3m in 2.4

m) horizontally shall be located on the high side of the room.” NFPA 72

states: “A row of detectors shall be spaced and located within 3 ft (0.9m) of

the peak of the ceiling measured horizontally” (see Figure 3).

MOBILE HOME INSTALLATION

Modern mobile homes have been designed and built to be energy efficient.

Install smoke alarms as recommended above (refer to RECOMMENDED LOCA-

TIONS and Figures 1 and 2).

In older mobile homes that are not well insulated compared to present stan-

dards, extreme heat or cold can be transferred from the outside to the inside

through poorly insulated walls and roof. This may create a thermal barrier

which can prevent the smoke from reaching an alarm mounted on the ceiling.

In such units, install the smoke alarm on an inside wall with the top edge of the

alarm at a minimum of 4” (10 cm) and a maximum of 12” (30.5 cm) below the

ceiling (see Figure 1).

If you are not sure about the insulation in your mobile home, or if you notice

that the outer walls and ceiling are either hot or cold, install the alarm on an

inside wall. For minimum protection, install at least one alarm close to the bed-

rooms. For additional protection, see SINGLE FLOOR PLAN in Figure 2.

WARNING: TEST YOUR SMOKE ALARM OPERATION AFTER R.V. OR

MOBILE HOME VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN STORAGE, BEFORE EACH TRIP AND

AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK DURING USE.

2. LOCATIONS TO AVOID

• In the garage. Products of combustion are present when you start your auto-

mobile.

• Less than 4” (10cm) from the peak of an “A” frame type ceiling.

• In an area where the temperature may fall below 40ºF or rise above 100ºF,

such as garages and unfinished attics.

• In dusty areas. Dust particles may cause nuisance alarms or failure to alarm.

• In very humid areas. Moisture or steam can cause nuisance alarms.

• In insect-infested areas.

• Smoke alarms should not be installed within 3 ft (.9m) of the following: the

door to a kitchen, the door to a bathroom containing a tub or shower, forced

air supply registers used for heating or cooling, ceiling or whole house ventilat-

ing fans, or other high air flow areas.

• Kitchens. Normal cooking may cause nuisance alarms. If a kitchen alarm is

desired, it should have an alarm silence feature or be a photoelectric type.

• Near fluorescent lights. Electronic “noise” may cause nuisance alarms.

• Smoke alarms are not to be used with detector guards unless the combination

(alarm and detector guard) have been evaluated and found suitable for that

purpose.

3. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

WIRING REQUIREMENTS

• This smoke alarm should be installed on a U.L. listed or recognized junction

box. All connections should be made by a qualified electrician and all wiring

used shall be in accordance with articles 210 and 300.3(B) of the U.S. National

Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70, NFPA 72 and/or any other codes having jurisdic-

tion in your area. The multiple station interconnect wiring to the alarms must

be run in the same raceway or cable as the AC power wiring. In addition, the

resistance of the interconnect wiring shall be a maximum of 10 ohms.

• The appropriate power source is 120 Volt A.C. Single Phase supplied from a

non-switchable circuit which is not protected by a ground fault interrupter.

•WARNING: This alarm cannot be operated from power derived from a square

wave, modified square wave or modified sine wave inverter. These types of

inverters are sometimes used to supply power to the structure in off grid

installations, such as solar or wind derived power sources. These power

sources produce high peak voltages that will damage the alarm.

WIRING INSTRUCTIONS FOR A.C. QUICK CONNECT HARNESS

CAUTION! TURN OFF THE MAIN POWER TO THE CIRCUIT BEFORE WIRING

THE ALARM.

• For alarms that are used as single station, DO NOT CONNECT THE RED WIRE

TO ANYTHING. Leave the red wire insulating cap in place to make certain that

the red wire cannot contact any metal parts or the electrical box.

• When alarms are interconnected, all interconnected units must be powered

from a single circuit.

• A maximum of 24 Kidde devices may be interconnected in a multiple station

arrangement. The interconnect system should not exceed the NFPA intercon-

nect limit of 12 smoke alarms and/or 18 alarms total (smoke, heat, carbon

monoxide, etc.). With 18 alarms interconnected, it is still possible to intercon-

nect up to a total of 6 remote signaling devices and/or relay modules.

• When mixing models which have battery backup with models without battery

backup, be advised that the models without battery backup will not respond

during an AC power failure.

• The maximum wire run distance between the first and last unit in an intercon-

nected system is 1000 feet.

• Figure 4 illustrates interconnection wiring. Improper connection will result in

damage to the alarm, failure to operate, or a shock hazard.

• Make certain alarms are wired to a continuous (non-switched) power line.

NOTE: Use standard UL listed household wire (as required by local codes) avail-

able at all electrical supply stores and most hardware stores.

After installation, TEST your alarm by pressing and holding the test button for

several seconds. This should sound the alarm.

4. OPERATION AND TESTING

OPERATION: The smoke alarm is operating once A.C. power is applied, fresh

batteries are installed and testing is complete. When the smoke alarm ionization

chamber senses products of combustion, the horn will sound a loud (85db) tem-

poral alarm until the sensing chamber is cleared of smoke particles.

LED INDICATORS: This smoke alarm is equipped with red and green LED indica-

tors. The green LED is located under test button "B" and will be illuminated

when AC power is present. The red LED is located under test button “A”.

Standby: The red LED will flash briefly approximately every 30- 40 seconds to

indicate that smoke alarm is operating properly.

Alarm When the unit senses products of combustion and goes into alarm,

mode: the red LED will flash rapidly (one flash per second). The rapid

flashing LED and temporal alarm will continue until the air is

cleared.

WHEN UNITS ARE INTERCONNECTED, only the red LED of the alarm, which

senses the smoke or is being tested (the originating unit) will flash rapidly. All

other units in the interconnect system will sound an alarm but their red LED's

will NOT flash rapidly.

Sensitivity The red LED will be on while Test "B" button is being pressed.

test:

Alarm This smoke alarm is equipped with an alarm memory, which

Memory: provides a visual indication when an alarm has been activated.

The red LED will illuminate for about 1.5 seconds every 16 seconds

to indicate the memory condition. The memory will remain activated

until pushing the test button resets it. The memory will also reset if

the battery voltage drops to 8 volts.

In an interconnected installation only the memory of the originating alarm will

be activated.

TESTING: Weekly testing is required: This alarm is equipped with two test but-

tons, which will verify the alarm calibration limits. Test button "A" should be

used for the normal weekly testing. Push and hold test button "A" on the cover

for a minimum of 10 seconds. This will sound the alarm if all the electronic cir-

cuitry, horn, and battery are working. If the alarm does not sound, the battery is

fresh and the green LED is on then the alarm must be replaced.

If the green LED is not on, check the fuse or circuit breaker supplying power to

the alarm circuit and verify the alarm is receiving AC power.

Alarm sensitivity verification test: Where required this test must be conducted as

specified in NFPA 72 chapter 10.

• Complete the normal weekly testing procedure as outlined. The alarms will

sound when test button "A" is pushed.

• Push and hold test button "B" for 10 seconds. The red LED will illuminate but

the alarm MUST NOT SOUND. If the alarm sounds during this test, it means

the alarms sensitivity has increased, which could result in nuisance alarms.

Increased sensitivity is typically a result of dust build up in the alarm. Follow

the cleaning instructions outlined in section 6 of the manual to clean your

alarm.

• To check for proper smoke entry into the alarm, Kidde recommends using

aerosol smoke manufactured by Home Safeguard Industries. Follow the test-

ing instructions supplied by Home Safeguard Industries. The spray should be

sprayed (towards the alarm) parallel to the wall or ceiling on which the alarm

is mounted. This will insure that the smoke enters the alarm through the

perimeter openings between the alarm base and cover. Excessive use of

aerosol test sprays at close range may permanently alter the alarm sensitivity.

NEVER USE an open flame or combustible materials to test your alarm, you

could damage the alarm or ignite nearby materials and start a structure fire.

TEST THE ALARM WEEKLY TO ENSURE PROPER OPERATION. Erratic or low sound

coming from your alarm may indicate a defective alarm, and it should be

returned for service (see Section 12).

5. NUISANCE ALARMS

Smoke alarms are designed to minimize nuisance alarms. Cigarette smoke will

not normally set off the alarm, unless the smoke is blown directly into the alarm.

Combustion particles from cooking may set off the alarm if the alarm is located

close to the cooking area. Large quantities of combustible particles are generat-

ed from spills or when broiling. Using the fan on a range hood which vents to
