If you are interconnecting more than one Smoke Alarm, you MUST read “Special Requirements For Interconnected Smoke Alarms” below before you begin installation. ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD. Turn off power to the area where you will install this unit at the circuit breaker or fuse box before beginning installation. Failure to turn off the power before installation may result in serious electrical shock, injury or death. 1. Using wire nuts, connect the power connector to the household wiring. Improper wiring of the power connector or the wiring leading to the power connector will cause damage to the Alarm and may lead to a non-functioning Alarm. 2. Remove the mounting bracket from the base, and attach it to the junction box. 3. Plug the power connector into the back of the Smoke Alarm. 4. Position the base of the Smoke Alarm over the mounting bracket and turn. The Alarm will remain secure over a wide rotation range to allow for perfect alignment. When wall mounting, this will allow fine-tuning on the positioning to compensate for misaligned wall studs and to keep the wording level. The Alarm can be positioned over the bracket every 120°. Rotate the Alarm until aligned properly. 5. Check all connections. ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD. Do not restore power until all Smoke Alarms are completely installed. Restoring power before installation is complete may result in serious electrical shock, injury or death. 6. Make sure the Smoke Alarm is receiving AC power. Under normal operation, the Green power indicator light will shine continuously. 7. If the Green power indicator light does not light, TURN OFF POWER TO THE JUNCTION BOX and recheck all connections. If all connections are correct and the Green power indicator still does not light when you restore the power, the unit should be replaced immediately. 8. Single Station Alarms: Test each Smoke Alarm. Press and hold the Test/Silence button until the unit alarms. Interconnected Alarms: Press and hold the Test/Silence button until the unit alarms. All interconnected Alarms should sound. The other Alarms sounding only tests the interconnect signal between Alarms. It does not test each Alarm’s operation. You must test each Alarm individually to check if the Alarm is functioning properly. If any unit in the series does not alarm, TURN OFF POWER and recheck connections. If it does not alarm when you restore power, replace it immediately. SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR INTERCONNECTED SMOKE ALARMS • Failure to meet any of the above requirements could damage the units and cause them to malfunction, removing your protection. • AC and AC/DC Smoke Alarms can be interconnected. Under AC power, all units will alarm when one senses smoke. When power is interrupted, only the AC/DC units in the series will continue to send and receive signals. AC powered Smoke Alarms will not operate. Interconnected units can provide earlier warning of fire than stand-alone units, especially if a fire starts in a remote area of the dwelling. If any unit in the series senses smoke, all units will alarm. To determine which Smoke Alarm initiated an alarm, see table: During an Alarm: On Initiating Alarm(s) Red LED(s) flashes (flash) rapidly On All Other Alarms Red LED is Off After an Alarm (Latching): On Initiating Alarm(s) Green LED(s) On for 2 seconds/Off for 2 seconds On All Other Alarms Green LED(s) On, Red LED(s) is Off Compatible Interconnected Units Interconnect units within a single family residence only. Otherwise all households will experience unwanted alarms when you test any unit in the series. Interconnected units will only work if they are wired to compatible units and all requirements are met. This unit is designed to be compatible with: First Alert® Smoke Alarm Models SA4120, SA4121B, SA100B and BRK Electronics® Smoke Alarm Models 9120, 9120B, SC6120B, SC9120B, 7010, 7010B, 100S, 4120, 4120B, 4120SB, RM3 (Relay Module); BRK Electronics® CO Alarm Models CO5120BN, CO5120PDBN; BRK Electronics® Heat Alarm Models HD6135F and HD6135FB. Interconnected units must meet ALL of the following requirements: • A maximum of 18 compatible units may be interconnected (Maximum of 12 Smoke Alarms). • The same fuse or circuit breaker must power all interconnected units. • The total length of wire interconnecting the units should be less than 1000 feet (300 meters). The interconnect wire should be #18 gauge or larger, rated at least 300V. If an interconnect wire is not already part of your household wiring, you will need to install one. Thi...
