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 sleeping room.

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

portable heaters or humidifiers).

FIGURE 2 FIGURE 3

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

The closed door may prevent an alarm not located 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

barriers that may form at the ceiling. For more details, see MOBILE HOME

INSTALLATION.

• 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).

1260-7205-01(820-0394G-EN)_v1.qxd:_ 2011.5.16 10:15 AM Page 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 (4.4˚C) or rise above

100ºF (37.8˚C), such as garages and unfinished attics.

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

• In very humid areas (greater than 85% R.H.). 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 ducts used for heating or cooling, ceiling or whole house ventilating

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 guard) has 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 inverters. 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 (i12040, i12040A, i12060,

i12060A, i12080, i12080A, i12090A, i4618, i4618A, 1275, 1276, 1285,

OF WALL MOUNTED SMOKE ALARMS WILL DECREASE OPERATIONAL

EFFECTIVENESS.

1. Remove the trim ring from the back of the alarm by holding the trim ring and

twisting the alarm counter-clockwise.

2. After selecting the proper smoke alarm location as described in Section 1 and

wiring the AC Quick Connector as described in the WIRING INSTRUCTIONS,

attach the trim ring to the electrical box (see Figure 6). To ensure aesthetic align-

ment of the alarm with the hallway or wall, the “A” line on the mounting

bracket must be parallel with the hallway when ceiling mounted, or horizontal

when wall mounted.

3. Pull the AC QUICK CONNECTOR through the center hole in the mounting

bracket and secure the bracket, making sure that the mounting screws are posi-

tioned in the small ends of the keyholes before tightening the screws.

4. Plug the AC QUICK CONNECTOR into the back of the alarm (see Figure 7), making

sure that the locks on the connector snap into place. Then

push the excess wire back into the electrical box through

the hole in the center of the mounting bracket.

5. Install the alarm on the mounting bracket and rotate the

alarm clockwise until the alarm ratchets into place (this

ratcheting function allows for aesthetic alignment). NOTE:

CAUTION: Due to the loudness (85 decibels) of the alarm, always stand

an arms length away from the unit when testing.

8. Turn on the AC power. The green Power On Indicator should be lit when the

alarm is operating from AC power. Confirm unit operation by pressing the

Test/Hush button.

TAMPER RESIST FEATURES

Smoke Alarm Tamper Resist Feature

This alarm has a tamper resist feature, which helps prevent someone from

removing the unit from the mounting bracket. When used in conjunction with

the Battery Carrier Tamper Resist Feature, it can be very effective in preventing

smoke alarm tampering and battery removal.

Activate the smoke alarm tamper resist feature by breaking off the four posts in

the square holes in the mounting bracket (see Figure 8A). When the posts are

broken off, the tamper resist tab on the base is allowed to engage the mounting

bracket. Rotate the alarm onto the mounting bracket until you hear the tamper

resist tab snap into place, locking the alarm on the mounting bracket. Using the

tamper resist feature will help deter children and others from removing the

alarm from the bracket. NOTE: To remove the alarm when the tamper resist tab

is engaged, press down on the tamper resist tab, and rotate the alarm off the

bracket (see Figure 8B).

Battery Carrier Tamper Resist Feature

This alarm has a battery carrier tamper resist feature, which helps prevent the

battery carrier from being opened. This feature is effective in preventing the

removal of the battery from this device (which will render the unit inoperable

during the loss of AC power).

To activate the battery carrier tamper resist feature, remove the unit from the

trim plate, disconnect the AC quick connector and locate the small cut-out in

the middle of the product label on the back of the unit. With a small screwdriv-

er, or similar tool, move the slider towards the lock position as indicated by the

FIGURE 8B

Locations

arrow. (see Figure 9) The tamper resist feature is now active and the battery

carrier can not be opened until the tamper resist feature is deactivated.

NOTE: Before activating the battery carrier tamper resist

feature, make sure a fresh battery is installed in the

unit and that the battery carrier is properly closed. If

the battery carrier tamper resist feature is activated

while the battery carrier is open, the battery carrier will

not close and the unit will be inoperable during the

loss of AC power.

To deactivate the battery carrier tamper resist, in order to

change the smoke alarm battery, remove the unit from the trim plate (see Smoke

Alarm Tamper Resist Feature if activated), disconnect the AC quick connector and

locate the small cut-out in the middle of the product label. Using a screwdriver, or

similar tool, move the slider away from the lock position (opposite the direction

indicated by the arrow). The battery carrier can now be opened and the battery

changed.

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)

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

HUSHTM CONTROL: The “HUSH” feature has the capability of temporarily

desensitizing the alarm circuit for up to 8 minutes. This feature is to be used

only when a known alarm condition, such as smoke from cooking, activates the

alarm.The smoke alarm is desensitized by pushing the “TEST/HUSH” button on

the smoke alarm cover. If the smoke is not too dense, the alarm will silence

immediately. The red LED will illuminate for 1.5 seconds every 8-10 seconds

while in hush. This indicates that the alarm is in a temporarily desensitized condi-

tion. The smoke alarm will automatically reset after approximately 8 minutes and

sound the alarm if particles of combustion are still present. The “HUSH” feature

can be used repeatedly until the air has been cleared of the condition causing the

alarm. Pushing the Test/Hush button on the alarm will end the hush period.

This alarm has a low battery HUSH feature. If the alarm is sounding a low

battery warning chirp, you can silence this chirp for approximately 13 hours by

pressing the Test/Hush button.

NOTE: DENSE SMOKE WILL OVERRIDE THE HUSH CONTROL FEATURE AND

SOUND A CONTINUOUS ALARM.

CAUTION: BEFORE USING THE ALARM HUSH FEATURE, IDENTIFY THE

SOURCE OF THE SMOKE AND BE CERTAIN A SAFE CONDITION EXISTS.

FIGURE 9

1260-7205-01(820-0394G-EN)_v1.qxd:_ 2011.5.16 10:15 AM Page 9

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

tors. The green LED (when illuminated) indicates the presence of AC power.

The red LED has four modes of operation:

Standby Condition: The red LED will flash every 40 seconds to indicate

that the smoke alarm is operating properly.

Alarm Condition: When the alarm senses products of combustion and

goes into alarm, the red LED will flash one flash per

second. The flashing LED and pulsating 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. All other units in the

interconnect system will sound an alarm but their red

LED’s will NOT be flashing.

Alarm Memory: This smoke alarm is equipped with an alarm memory,

which provides a visual indication when an alarm has

been activated. The red LED will illuminate for about 1.5

seconds every 20 seconds to indicate the memory

condition. The memory will remain activated until

pushing the Test/Hush Button resets it or will time-out

between 11 to 13 hours. In an interconnected installation

only the memory of the originating alarm will be activated.

Hush®mode: The red LED will illuminate for 1.5 seconds every 10

seconds, indicating the smoke alarm is in the Hush®

mode.

TESTING: Test by pushing the Test/Hush button on the cover and hold it down

for a minimum of 5 seconds. This will sound the alarm if all the electronic cir-

cuitry, horn and battery are working. In an interconnected installation all inter-

connected alarms should sound when the test feature on any one of the inter-

connected alarms is activated. If no alarm sounds, check the fuse or circuit

breaker supplying power to the alarm circuit. If the alarm still does not sound,

the unit has defective batteries or other failure. DO NOT use an open flame to

test your alarm, you could damage the alarm or ignite combustible 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).
