the mounting bracket to the ceiling as shown in images 2A. For wall mounting see
images 3A. Place the mounting plate on the wall; be sure the “A” line is

3. This alarm has a battery permanently sealed inside the alarm no battery installation
or maintenance is necessary.
Note: Extensive cycling between high and low temperatures will significantly
reduce battery life. Long term exposure to high temperatures will degrade
the battery over time. Chubb recommends locating this alarm in a
controlled temperature environment (20-30ºC) for optimum life.

Once activated, the battery will supply power to the alarm for the life of the
alarm (10 years). Be sure that the mounting bracket is mounted correctly
before installing the alarm on the mounting bracket.
1. To activate the alarm, install the alarm on the mounting bracket (images 3C) and
rotate the alarm clockwise (as indicated on the alarm cover) until the alarm snaps
into place .
The alarm is now activated!
WARNING: Alarm will not operate if it is not fixed on mounting plate.
