1. RECOMMENDED LOCATIONS FOR SMOKE ALARMS

• Locate the first alarm in the immediate area of the sleeping rooms.

Try to monitor the exit path as the sleeping rooms are usually far-

thest from the exit. If more than one sleeping area exists, locate

additional alarms in each sleeping area (See figure 3).

• 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.

• Locate an alarm in every sleeping room.

• 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 alarm not located in that

room 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 center of the room places it closest

to all points in the room. Ceiling mount-

ing is preferred in ordinary residential

construction.

• For mobile home installation, select loca-

tions carefully to avoid thermal barriers

that may form at the ceiling. For more

details, see MOBILE HOME INSTALLATION

below.

• 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 hall-

way or large room if the hallway or room

is more than 30 ft (9.1 m) long. For large

rooms, one smoke alarm is recommended

for every 500 square feet of floor space.

• In homes that are not well insulated,

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 pre-

vent the smoke from reaching an alarm

mounted on the ceiling. If you are not

sure about the insulation in your home,

or if you notice that the outer walls and

ceiling are either hot or cold, install the

alarm on an inside wall. In such homes,

install the smoke alarm 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).

• 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 ft in 8 ft (.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 2).

• Install Smoke Alarms on tray-shaped ceilings (coffered ceilings) on

the highest portion of the ceiling or on the sloped portion of the ceil-

ing within 12” (305mm) vertically down from the highest point (see

figure 4).

Mobile Home Installation

Modern mobile homes have been designed and built to be energy

efficient. Install smoke alarms as recommended above (refer to

RECOMMENDED LOCATIONS and Figures 1 and 2). In older mobile

homes that are not well insulated compared to present standards,

extreme heat or cold can be transferred from the outside to the inside

through poorly insulated walls and roof. This may create a thermal bar-

rier 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” (10cm) and a maximum

of 12” (30.5cm) 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 sleeping rooms. For additional protection, see

SINGLE FLOOR PLAN in figure 2.

WARNING: TEST YOUR SMOKE ALARM OPERATION AFTER

RV 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 automobile.

• Less than 4” (10cm) from the peak of an “A” frame type ceiling.

• In an area where the temperature may fall below 40ºF or rise above

100ºF, such as garages and unfinished attics; this should also include

electrical boxes exposed to these environments.

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

alarm.

• In very humid areas (greater than 95% RH, non-condensing).

Moisture or steam can cause nuisance alarms.

• In insect-infested areas.

• Smoke alarms should not be installed within 3 ft (.9m) of the follow-

ing: 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 pho-

toelectric 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 suit-

able for that purpose.

3. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION: THIS UNIT IS SEALED. THE COVER IS NOT

REMOVABLE!

1.Remove the mounting plate from the back of the alarm by hold-

ing the mounting plate and twisting the alarm in the direction

indicated by the “OFF” arrow on the alarm cover.

2.To insure 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 mounting or horizontal when wall

mounting

3.After selecting the proper smoke alarm location as described in

section 1, attach the mounting plate to the ceiling as shown in

figure 4. For wall mounting see figure 4. Place mounting plate

on the wall. Be sure the “A” line is horizontal. Use the screws

and anchors provided to secure the mounting plate (use 3/16”

drill bit for anchor holes).

4.Battery installation instructions are provided on the inside of the

battery door.

To ensure proper installation of the smoke alarm battery, follow

the instructions.

5.When installing the battery, press the battery reminder finger

down into the battery compartment and install the battery (see

figure 5).

CAUTION! IF THE BATTERY REMINDER FINGER IS NOT

HELD DOWN IN THE BATTERY COMPARTMENT BY THE

BATTERY, THE BATTERY DOOR WILL NOT CLOSE AND THE

UNIT WILL NOT ATTACH TO THE MOUNTING BRACKET.

6.Install the alarm on the trim ring and rotate 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).

TAMPER RESIST FEATURE: To make your smoke alarm tamper

resistant, a tamper resist feature has been provided. Activate the

tamper resist feature by breaking off the four posts in the square

holes in the trim ring (see figure 6). 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 trim ring until you

hear the tamper resist tab snap into place, locking the alarm on

the trim ring. Using the tamper resist feature will help deter chil-

dren and others from removing the alarm from trim ring. NOTE:

To remove the alarm when the tamper resist tab is engaged, press

down on the tamper resist tab, and rotate the alarm off of the

trim ring (see figure 6).

After installation, test your alarm by depressing and holding down

the test button for at least 5 seconds. This should sound the alarm.

OPERATION: The smoke alarm is operating once a fresh battery is

installed and testing is complete. When products of combustion

are sensed, the unit sounds a loud 85db pulsating alarm until the

air is cleared.

4. OPERATION AND TESTING

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

temporarily desensitizing the alarm circuit for approximately 10

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 “HUSH” button on the

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

silence immediately and the red LED will flash every 10 seconds

for approximately 10 minutes. This indicates that the alarm is in a

temporarily desensitized condition. The smoke alarm will automati-

cally reset after approximately 10 minutes, and sound the alarm if

smoke is still present. The “HUSH” feature can be used repeatedly

until the air has been cleared of the condition causing the alarm.

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.

LED INDICATOR: This smoke alarm is equipped with a red LED

indicator. The red LED is located under the test button and has

several modes of operation.

FIGURE 6

Posts

Standby Condition: The red LED will flash every 45

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 rapidly (once every

second). The rapid flashing LED

and temporal alarm will continue

until the air is cleared.

Hush Condition: The red LED will flash every 10 seconds

as long as the alarm is in Hush mode.

Low Battery Condition: The red LED flash will be accompanied

by an audible chirp. Replace the battery

when this condition occurs.

SMOKE SENSING CHAMBER OPERATION: This alarm will “chirp”

if any of the components in the smoke sensing chamber fail. This

chirp will occur between the flashes of the red LED indicator light.

(If the chirp occurs at the same time as the red LED flash, see sec-

tion 6 for low battery information).

TESTING: Test by pushing the test button on the cover and hold

it down for a minimum of 5 seconds. This will sound the alarm

if the electronic circuitry and horn and battery are working. If no

alarm sounds, 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).

NOTE: WEEKLY TESTING IS REQUIRED.

5. NUISANCE ALARMS

Smoke alarms are designed to minimize nuisance alarms.

Cigarette smoke will not normally set off the alarm, unless the

smoke is blown directly into the alarm. Combustion particles from

cooking may set off the alarm if the alarm is located close to the

cooking area. Large quantities of combustible particles are gener-

ated from spills or when broiling. Using the fan on a range hood

which vents to the outside (non-recirculating type) will also help

remove these combustible products from the kitchen.

If the alarm does sound, check for fires first. If a fire is discovered,

get out and call the fire department. If no fire is present, check to

see if one of the reasons listed in section 2 may have caused the

alarm.

The model PI9010 has a “HUSH” control that is extremely use-

ful in a kitchen area or other areas prone to nuisance alarms. For

more information refer to section 4, OPERATION AND TESTING.

6. MAINTENANCE

BATTERY REPLACEMENT

If tamper resist feature has been used, refer to TAMPER RESIST

FEATURE in section 3 for removal instructions.

To replace the battery, remove the alarm from the mounting plate

by rotating the alarm in the direction of the “OFF” arrow on the

cover (see section 3, figure 4).

The Model PI9010 Smoke Alarm is powered by a 9V alkaline

battery . A fresh battery should last for one year under normal

operating conditions. This alarm has a low battery monitor circuit

which will cause the alarm to “chirp” approximately every 45 sec-

onds for a minimum of seven (7) days when the battery gets low.

Replace the battery when this condition occurs.

USE ONLY THE FOLLOWING 9 VOLT BATTERIES FOR SMOKE

ALARM REPLACEMENT.

Alkaline Type: ENERGIZER 522; DURACELL MN1604,

MX1604; GOLD PEAK 1604A; PANASONIC

6AM6, 6AM-6, 6AM-6PI, 6AM6X, and

6LR61(GA)

NOTE: WEEKLY TESTING IS REQUIRED.

WARNING!! USE ONLY THE BATTERIES SPECIFIED. USE OF

DIFFERENT BATTERIES MAY HAVE A DETRIMENTAL EFFECT

ON THE SMOKE ALARM.

NOTE: DO NOT USE LITHIUM BATTERIES IN THIS UNIT.

CLEANING YOUR ALARM

YOUR ALARM SHOULD BE CLEANED AT LEAST ONCE A YEAR

To clean your alarm, remove it from the mounting bracket as

outlined in the beginning of this section. You can clean the inte-

rior of your alarm (sensing chamber) by using compressed air or

a vacuum cleaner hose and blowing or vacuuming through the

openings around the perimeter of the alarm. The outside of the

alarm can be wiped with a damp cloth. After cleaning, reinstall

your alarm and test your alarm by using the test button. If clean-

ing does not restore the alarm to normal operation the alarm

should be replaced.

7. LIMITATIONS OF SMOKE ALARMS

WARNING: PLEASE READ CAREFULLY AND THOROUGHLY

• NFPA 72 states: Life safety from fire in residential occupancies

is based primarily on early notification to occupants of the need

to escape, followed by the appropriate egress actions by those

occupants. Fire warning systems for dwelling units are capable

of protecting about half of the occupants in potentially fatal

fires. Victims are often intimate with the fire, too old or young,

or physically or mentally impaired such that they cannot escape

even when warned early enough that escape should be possible.

For these people, other strategies such as protection-in-place or

assisted escape or rescue are necessary.

• Leading authorities recommend that both ionization and photo-

electric smoke alarms be installed to help insure maximum detec-

tion of the various types of fires that can occur within the home.

Ionization sensing alarms may detect invisible fire particles (asso-

ciated with fast flaming fires) sooner than photoelectric alarms.

Photoelectric sensing alarms may detect visible fire particles (asso-

ciated with slow smoldering fires) sooner than ionization alarms.

• A battery powered alarm must have a battery of the specified type,

in good condition and installed properly.

• AC powered alarms (without battery backup) will not operate if

the AC power has been cut off, such as by an electrical fire or

an open fuse.

• Smoke alarms must be tested regularly to make sure the batter-

ies and the alarm circuits are in good operating condition.

• Smoke alarms cannot provide an alarm if smoke does not reach

the alarm. Therefore, smoke alarms may not sense fires starting

in chimneys, walls, on roofs, on the other side of a closed door

or on a different floor.

• If the alarm is located outside the bedroom or on a different

floor, it may not wake up a sound sleeper.
