User's Manual

Remove the back cover from the unit by prying it up at the bottom in the center. If you are setting the unit up for the first time, set the

WIRING REQUIREMENTS

• The appropriate power source is 120 Volt A.C. Single Phase outlet supplied from a non-switchable circuit that is not protected

by a ground fault interrupter.

WARNING: The Sound Module cannot be operated on power derived from a square wave or modified square 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 device.

MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS

The Kidde Sound Module is equipped with a removable power-supply that allows for the unit to be wall mounted, plugged directly

into an electrical outlet or placed on a table top.

• The Sound Module is shipped ready to use in most homes as a direct plug unit. Complete the setup and plug into an outlet

using the recommend location section.

• For outlets that are installed horizontally (sideways), remove the back cover and pull the power-supply out while moving the

latch to the side. Rotate the plug and insert it back into the unit. Replace the back cover and plug the unit into an outlet

using the recommendations give in sections 1 and 2.

• The Sound Module can be mounted on the wall using the included screw and anchor kit. Remove the back cover and the

power-supply. Unwind the cord and route it through the cord path near the bottom of the unit. Mount the back cover using

the recommended locations in sections 1 and 2. To install on plaster board or dry wall, drill a 3/16”

hole, insert the plastic anchor provided and install the screw so that the head is 1/8” from the wall.

Hang the unit from the back cover and plug in the power-supply.

• To use the Sound Module on a tabletop or shelf, remove the back cover and the power-supply. Unwind

the cord and route it through the cord path near the bottom of the unit. Replace the back cover and

plug the power-supply in an outlet near one of the recommended locations.

CAUTION: THIS UNIT IS SEALED. THE COVER IS NOT REMOVABLE!

After installation TEST your Sound Module by following the test procedure outlined in section 4.
