The Mounting Bracket: To remove the mounting bracket from the Heat Alarm base, hold the Heat Alarm base firmly and twist the mounting bracket counterclockwise. The mounting bracket installs onto the junction box. It has a variety of screw slots to fit most boxes. The Power Connector: The power connector plugs into a power input block on the Heat Alarm. It supplies the unit with AC power. • The black wire is “hot.” • The white wire is neutral. • The orange wire is used for interconnect. If you need to remove the power connector, disconnect AC power at the electrical panel; insert a flat screwdriver blade between the power connector and the security tab inside the power input block. Gently pry back the tab and pull the connector free. 1 2 3 2 9 8 7 3 5 6 4 The Parts of This Unit 1 Mounting Bracket 2 Mounting Slots and Screws 3 Locking Pins (break out of bracket) 4 Hot (Black) AC Wire 5 Neutral (White) AC Wire 6 Interconnect (Orange) Wire 7 Latch to Open Battery Compartment 8 Swing-Out Battery Compartment 9 Quick-Connect Power Connector HOW TO INSTALL THIS HEAT ALARM THE PARTS OF THIS HEAT ALARM This Heat Alarm is designed to be mounted on any standard wiring junction box to a 4-inch (10 cm) size, on either the ceiling or wall (if allowed by local codes). Read “Recommended Locations For Heat Alarms” and “Locations to Avoid For Heat Alarms” before you begin installation. Tools you will need: • Needle-nose pliers or utility knife •Standard Flathead screwdriver. Fixed Temperature and Rate-of-Rise. This Heat Alarm monitors the air and when heat reaches the sensor, it alarms. The unit will alarm either when the temperature reaches a fixed 135º F (57º C) or the microprocessor detects a 15º F (8.3º C) per minute rate of rise temperature change. This allows the unit to sense a heat rise and alarm prior to reaching the fixed temperature of 135º F (57º C), providing quicker response to a potential fire. Heat Alarms are intended for use as supplemental safety devices with Smoke Alarms. Heat Alarms are designed for use in areas where Smoke Alarms cannot be installed due to temperature and environmental conditions, as in unheated garages and crawl spaces. A Heat Alarm can only give early warn- ing of a developing fire if it is properly installed and maintained and located where heat can reach it. The unit will not sense gas, smoke or flame. Heat Alarms cannot prevent or extinguish fires. This Heat Alarm is approved for use in single-family residences. It is NOT designed for marine or RV use. THE COVER OF YOUR HEAT ALARM 1.
