Use and Care Manual

4. Installation Instructions
Mounting
• Remove the mounting plate from the back of the alarm by holding
the mounting plate and twisting the alarm in the direction indicated
by the “OFF” arrow on the alarm cover.
• After selecting the proper location for your CO Alarm and wiring the
AC Quick-Connector harness, attach the mounting plate to the elec-
trical box. To ensure aesthetic alignment of the alarm with the hall-
way, or wall, the “A” line on the mounting plate must be parallel with
the hallway when ceiling mounted or horizontal when wall mounted.
• Pull the AC Quick-Connector through the center hole in the mounting
plate and secure the bracket, making sure that the mounting screws
are positioned in the small ends of the
keyholes before tightening.
• Plug the AC Quick-Connector into the
back of the alarm, making sure that the
locks on the connector snap into the
unit. Push the excess wire back into the
electrical box through the hole in the
center of the mounting plate.
• Install the alarm on the mounting plate
and twist the alarm in the direction of
the “ON” arrow on the cover until the
alarm ratchets into place (this ratcheting
function allows for aesthetic alignment).
Note: The alarm will mount to the
bracket in 4 positions (every 90 degrees).
• Turn on the AC power. The green AC
Power On Indicator should be lit when
the alarm is operating from AC power.
• For alarms equipped with 9V battery
backup: Pull the Battery Pull Tab (yellow
tab protruding from unit) completely out
of unit. This will automatically connect
the battery.
