THE COVER IS NOT REMOVABLE! 1. Remove the trim ring from the back of the alarm by holding the trim ring and twisting the alarm in the direction indicated by the “OFF” arrow on the alarm cover. 2. After selecting the proper smoke alarm location as described in Section 1 and wiring the A.C. QUICK CONNECT harness as described in the WIRING INSTRUCTIONS, attach the trim ring to the electrical box (see Figure 2). 3. Use a screwdriver to punch out only the pair of holes in the trim ring that match your type of electrical box or plaster ring. Mount the trim ring to the electrical box, using the appropriate holes. NOTE: Use the circle, square and octagon markings near each mounting hole in the trim ring to help you select the correct mounting holes (see Figure 2). 4. Pull the A.C. QUICK CONNECTOR through the center hole in the trim ring and mount the ring, making sure that the mounting screws are positioned in the small ends of the keyholes before tightening the screws (see Figure 2). 5. Plug the A.C. QUICK CONNECTOR into the back of the alarm (see Figure 3), 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 trim ring. 6. If you have finished all the WIRING, BATTERY INSTALLATION AND TRIM RING MOUNTING STEPS, you can install the alarm on the trim ring. Alignment marks are provided on the side of the alarm and on the trim ring (see Figure 4). 7. Install the alarm on the trim ring with the indicating marks aligned and rotate the alarm in the direction of the “ON” arrow on the cover until the alarm snaps in place (see Figure 4). 8. Turn on the A.C. power. The green A.C. Power On Indicator should be lit when the alarm is operating from A.C. power. FIGURE 2. SELECT CORRECT MOUNTING HOLES ON TRIM RING Rectangular Plaster Ring Circular Plaster Ring Octagonal Electrical Box TAMPER RESIST LOCKING PIN: To make your smoke alarm somewhat tamper resistant, a locking pin has been provided with your alarm. Using this pin will deter children and others from removing the alarm from trim ring. To use the pin, insert it into the hole in the side of the alarm after the alarm has been installed on the trim ring (see Figure 5). NOTE: The tamper resist pin will have to be removed in order to change the batteries. Use a long nose pliers to pull the pin out of the hole. It is now possible to remove the alarm from the trim ring. After installation, TEST your alarm by pressing and holding the test button for several seconds. This should sound the alarm and activate the Safety Light. Alignment marksTo remove A.C. connector, squeeze Tamper resistant locking arms locking pin and pull Install Remove FIGURE 3. FIGURE 4. FIGURE 5. 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. SAFETY LIGHT: The model 1285 has a Safety Light feature. When the smoke alarm ionization chamber senses smoke, the 85 db horn will sound and the Safety Light will illuminate until the sensing chamber is cleared of smoke particles. NOTE: THE SAFETY LIGHT IS NOT INTENDED TO SATISFY THE REQUIREMENTS FOR APPROVED ILLUMINATION UNDER VARIOUS LOCAL CODES. VERY THICK AND/OR DENSE SMOKE MAY OBSCURE THE LIGHT. LED INDICATORS: This smoke alarm is equipped with a red and green LED indicators. The red LED is located under the test button and has two modes of operation. Standby Condition The red LED will flash every 30-40 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 rapidly (one flash per second). The rapid flashing LED and temporal 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 rapidly. All other units in the interconnect system will sound an alarm but their red LED’s will NOT flash rapidly. The green LED has two modes of operation. Standby Condition The green LED will be steady on, indicating the presence of AC power. Alarm Memory This smoke alarm is equipped with an alarm memory which provides a visual indication when an alarm has been activated. A flashing green LED indicates the memory condition. The memory will remain activated until it is reset by pushing the test button. In an interconnected installation only the memory of the originating alarm will be activated. TESTING: Test by pushing the test button on the cover and hold it down for a minimum of 2 seconds. This will sound the alarm if the electronic circuitry and horn and battery are working. When the alarm sounds, the Safety Light will illuminate. If no alarm sounds,and the Safety Light does not i...
