SINGLE STATION
SMOKE ALARM
For alarm models: 0945CA and 0946CA
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. Home fires develop in different ways and are
often unpredictable. For maximum protection, Kidde
recommends that both Ionization and Photoelectric
alarms be installed.

Recommended Locations
• 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 (Image 1A).
• Locate additional alarms to monitor any stairway as
stairways act like chimneys for smoke and heat.
• Locate at least one alarm on every floor level (Image
1B).
• Locate an alarm in every bedroom.
• 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
alarmlocated outside from waking the sleeper.
•Smoke,heat, and combustion products rise to the
ceiling and spread horizontally. Mounting the smoke
alarm on the ceiling in the centre of the room places it
closest to all points in the room. Ceiling mounting is
preferred in ordinary residential construction.
• When mounting an alarm on the ceiling, locate it at a
minimum of 10 cm (4") from the side wall (Image 2A).
• When mounting the alarm on the wall, use an inside
wall with the top edge of the alarm at a minimum of 10
cm (4") and a maximum of 30.5 cm (12") below the
ceiling (Image 2A).
• Put smoke alarms at both ends of a bedroom hallway
or large room if the hallway or room is more than 9.1 m
(30') long.
3
Installation
• Install smoke alarms on sloped, peaked or cathedral
ceilings at or within 0.9 m (3') of the highest point
(measured horizontally). NFPA Standard 72 states: “Smoke
alarms in rooms with ceiling slopes greater than 0.3 m in
2.4 m (1 foot in 8 feet) horizontally shall be located on the
high side of the room.” NFPA Standard 72 states: “A row of
detectors shall be spaced and located within 0.9 m (3') of
the peak of the ceiling measured horizontally” (Image 2B).

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.
Locations to Avoid
• Do not install within 0.9 m (3') of the following: The
door to a kitchen, or a bathroom that contains a tub or
shower, forced air supply ducts used for heating or
cooling, ceiling or whole house ventilating fans, or other
high air-flow areas.
• Do not place the alarm where drapes or other objects
will block the sensor. Smoke must be able to reach the
sensor to accurately detect conditions.
• Do not install in peaks of vaulted ceilings, “A” frame
ceilings or gabled roofs. (Less than 10 cm (4") from the
peak of an “A” frame type ceiling.)
• Install at least 30.5 cm (12") away from fluorescent
lights as electronic noise maycause nuisance alarms.
• Keep out of insect infested areas. Avoid excessively
dusty,dirty or greasy areas. Dust particles maycause
nuisance alarms or failure to alarm.
• Extreme temperatures may effect the sensitivity of the
alarm. Do not install in areas where the temperature is
colder than 4.4°C (40°F) or hotter than 37.8°C (100°F),
such as garages and unfinished attics.
• Do not install in areas where the relativehumidity (RH)
is greater than 85%. Very humid areas, with moisture
or steam, can cause nuisance alarms.
• Avoid placing smoke alarms in kitchen areas. Normal
cooking maycause nuisance alarms. If a kitchen alarm
is desired, it should have an alarm silencer feature or
be a photoelectric type.
• Do not place in the garage. Particles of combustion are
present when you startyour automobile.
• Smoke alarms are not to be used with detector guards
unless the combination (alarmand guard) has been
evaluated and found suitable for that purpose.

indicated by the “OFF” arrow on the alarm cover.
• After selecting the proper smoke alarm location as
described previously, hold the mounting plate against
the selected installation location (wall or ceiling) and
mark the centre of the holes with a pencil. To ensure
aesthetic alignment of the alarm with the hallway, or
wall, the “A” line on the mounting plate should be
parallel with the hallway when ceiling mounted, or
horizontal when wall mounted (Image 3A and 3B). Drill
ahole through the pencil marks and use the enclosed
screws and anchors to secure the mounting plate. Use
a3/16" drill bit for the screw anchor holes.

Alarm Tamper-Resist Feature
• To make the smoke alarm tamper-resistant, a tamper
resist means has been provided. To activate this
feature you must break out the tamper-resist blocks on
the mounting plate (Image 4A). Use a small
screwdriver.
• Using this feature will help deter children and others from
removing the alarm from the mounting plate. With the
blocks removed, the tamper-resist feature will be
activated when the alarm is installed on the mounting
plate.
• The tamper-resist tab will have to be released in order
to change the battery. Using a tool (small screwdriver)
push the tab away from the mounting plate (Image 4B)
and rotate the alarm in the “OFF” direction.
• After installation, test the alarm by depressing and
holding down the Test button for several seconds. This
should sound the alarm.
