(2.4GHz) Wi-Fi )

WARNING: The 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.

NOTE: This model is equipped with a feature that automatically activates the battery backup when the

alarm is plugged into an AC outlet for the first time. The battery activation is a one-time feature. After

activation, the battery cannot be turned off and can only be discharged at the end of unit life. If the

alarm is removed from the wall outlet, the backup battery will remain active. See Permanently Disable

Alarm / Discharge Battery section.

WARNING: Failure to properly install and activate this alarm will prevent proper operation of this

alarm and will prevent its response to CO hazards.

IMPORTANT: These alarms are not hardwire interconnected. They do not communicate with other

AC hardwire or AC plug-in alarms. Wi-Fi functionality is only between alarms and a mobile device.

NOTE: The IAQ product takes a minimum of 5 minutes to warm up before air quality information is

available. However the device can take up to 4 days to achieve full accuracy.
