WIRELESS OPERATION
First Alert®ONELINK®Technology is the easy, cost-effective way to
provide your family with whole-home safety. All ONELINK®Alarms
communicate with each other without wires or connectors. When one
Alarm sounds, they all sound. This provides your family with an earlier
warning of potential danger, and gives you more time to react.
The communication distance (range) between any two ONELINK
®Alarms
is typically 50 feet (15 meters) inside of a home. Some features of a
home, such as the number of floors, number/size of rooms, furniture and
types of building materials used may reduce the range of the Alarms.
Examples include: suspended ceilings, ductwork, large metallic appli-
ances (refrigerators) and metal studs. A feature of ONELINK
®Alarms is
that they operate as a mesh network. All Alarms will repeat any alarm
signal that is received to all other ONELINK®Alarms. Interference from
structural conditions can be overcome by adding additional Alarms to
route the wireless signal around obstructions.
The range and proper operation of any wireless device will
vary depending on its surroundings. It is very important that
each Alarm is tested individually before and after installation
to make sure that all Alarms respond properly.
The ONELINK®Alarms are not to be used outdoors or to
transmit between buildings. The Alarms will not communicate
properly under these conditions.
Metal objects and metallic wallpaper may interfere with
signals from wireless Alarms. Alarms should be tested after
changes to your home such as remodeling, moving furniture,
and with metal doors opened and closed.
Your First Alert®ONELINK®Smoke/CO Alarm will automatically commu-
nicate both potential fires and carbon monoxide presence with all other
First Alert®ONELINK®Smoke/CO Alarms.
FCC NOTICE: This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may
not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference received, including interference that may cause undesired
operation. FCC ID: M7U5001L
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by BRK Brands,
Inc. could void the users authority to operate the equipment.
INTRODUCTION
Thank you for choosing First Alert
®for your Smoke and Carbon
Monoxide Alarm needs. You have purchased a state-of-the-art Smoke &
Carbon Monoxide Alarm designed to provide you with early warning of a
smoke and/or Carbon Monoxide danger. Key features include:
Smoke & Carbon Monoxide Combination Alarm. One alarm protects
against two deadly household threats.
ONELINK
®
Enabled. Alarm automatically communicates with other
ONELINK
®
enabled alarms when installed.
Exclusive Voice Warning with Location will tell you the preprogrammed
location of the initiating unit and danger detected. Programmable up to
11 locations (ex. "basement"). When alarms sounds, if programmed for
basement it will say "Warning, evacuate, smoke in basement" along with
all other installed ONELINK®Voice alarms.
Spread Spectrum Horn Tone. Lower and varying horn frequency
makes it easier for elderly with normal age related hearing loss to hear
horn. Sweeps through the 2200 3400 Hz range.
RF Interconnect. Reliable and secure radio frequency communication
between alarms. 915 MHz frequency with 65,000 security codes and 3
channel frequency hopping.
Single Button Test/Silence eliminates confusion. Depending on what
mode the alarm is in, pushing the button provides different functions
such as testing the alarm, silencing the alarm, re-testing the alarm when
in silence and clearing the Latching features.
Two Silence Features. Temporarily silence low battery chirp for up to
eight hours before replacing low battery or silence an unwanted alarm
for several minutes.
Two Latching Features. Alarm Latch: Easily identifies initiating alarm
even after alarm condition has subsided. Low Battery Latch: Identifies
which unit is in low battery condition.
Perfect Mount System includes a gasketless base for easy installation
and a mounting bracket that keeps the alarm secure over a wide
rotation range to allow for perfect alignment.
6 Year End of Life Timer. Every 24 hours of operation a counter stored
in memory is updated. When the count equals 6 years of true operation,
meaning actually powered-up, a malfunction chirp (triple chirp) will
sound once a minute at the time of the 45 second Power-LED flash.
All First Alert®Smoke Alarms conform to regulatory requirements,
including UL217 and are designed to detect particles of combustion.
Smoke particles of varying number and size are produced in all fires.
Ionization technology is generally more sensitive than photoelectric
technology at detecting small particles, which tend to be produced
in greater amounts by flaming fires, which consume combustible
materials rapidly and spread quickly. Sources of these fires may include
paper burning in a wastebasket, or a grease fire in the kitchen.
Photoelectric technology is generally more sensitive than ionization
technology at detecting large particles, which tend to be produced
in greater amounts by smoldering fires, which may smolder for hours
before bursting into flame. Sources of these fires may include cigarettes
burning in couches or bedding.
For maximum protection, use both types of Smoke Alarms on
each level and in every bedroom of your home.
IMPORTANT! PLEASE READ CAREFULLY AND SAVE.
This users manual contains important information about your
Combination Carbon Monoxide & Smoke Alarm’s operation. If you are
installing this Alarm for use by others, you must leave this manual—or
a copy of it—with the end user.
FIRE SAFETY TIPS
Follow safety rules and prevent hazardous situations: 1) Use smoking
materials properly. Never smoke in bed. 2) Keep matches or lighters
away from children; 3) Store flammable materials in proper containers;
4) Keep electrical appliances in good condition and don’t overload
electrical circuits; 5) Keep stoves, barbecue grills, fireplaces and
chimneys grease- and debris-free; 6) Never leave anything cooking on
the stove unattended; 7) Keep portable heaters and open flames, like
candles, away from flammable materials;8) Don’t let rubbish accumulate.
Keep alarms clean, and test them weekly. Replace alarms immediately
if they are not working properly. Smoke Alarms that do not work cannot
alert you to a fire. Keep at least one working fire extinguisher on every
floor, and an additional one in the kitchen. Have fire escape ladders or
other reliable means of escape from an upper floor in case stairs are
blocked.
BASIC SAFETY INFORMATION
Dangers, Warnings, and Cautions alert you to important
operating instructions or to potentially hazardous situations.
Pay special attention to these items.
This Smoke/CO Alarm is approved for use in single-family
residences.
This combination Smoke/Carbon Monoxide Alarm has two
separate alarms. The CO Alarm is not designed to detect fire
or any other gas. It will only indicate the presence of carbon
monoxide gas at the sensor. Carbon monoxide gas may be
present in other areas. The Smoke Alarm will only indicate the
presence of smoke that reaches the sensor. The Smoke Alarm
is not designed to sense gas, heat or flames.
This Smoke/CO Alarm cannot operate without working
batteries. Removing the batteries for any reason, or failing to
replace the batteries at the end of their service life, removes
your protection.
NEVER ignore any alarm. See If Your Smoke/CO Alarm
Sounds” for more information on how to respond to an alarm.
Failure to respond can result in injury or death.
The Silence Features are for your convenience only and will
not correct a problem. See "Using the Silence Features" for
details. Always check your home for a potential problem after
any alarm. Failure to do so can result in injury or death.
Test this Smoke/CO Alarm once a week. If the Alarm ever fails
to test correctly, have it replaced immediately! If the Alarm is
not working properly, it cannot alert you to a problem.
This product is intended for use in ordinary indoor locations
of family living units. It is not designed to measure CO levels
in compliance with Occupational Safety and Health
Administration (OSHA) commer ds.cial or industrial standar
Individuals with medical conditions that may make them more
sensitive to carbon monoxide may consider using warning
devices which provide audible and visual signals for carbon
monoxide concentrations under 30 ppm. For additional
information on carbon monoxide and your medical condition
contact your physician.

INSTALLATION
WHERE TO INSTALL THIS ALARM
Minimum coverage for Smoke Alarms, as recommended by the
National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), is one Smoke Alarm on
every floor, in every sleeping area, and in every bedroom (See
“Regulatory Information For Smoke Alarms” for details on the NFPA
recommendations).
For CO Alarms, the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA)
recommends that a CO Alarm should be centrally located outside of
each separate sleeping area in the immediate vicinity of the bedrooms.
For added protection, install additional CO Alarms in each separate
bedroom, and on every level of your home.
NOTE: For added protection, install an additional Smoke/CO Alarm at least
15 feet (4.6 meters) away from the furnace or fuel burning heat source
where possible. In smaller homes or in manufactured homes where this
distance cannot be maintained, install the Alarm as far away as possible
from the furnace or other fuel burning source. Installing the Alarm closer
than 15 feet (4.6 meters) will not harm the Alarm, but may increase the
frequency of unwanted alarms.
In general, install combination Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Alarms:
In the hall near every sleeping area. If your home has multiple
sleeping areas, install a unit in each. If a hall is more than 40 feet
(12 meters) long, install a unit at each end.
On every level of your home, including finished attics and basements.
Inside every bedroom, especially if people sleep with the door partly
or completely closed.
At the top of first-to-second floor stairs.
At the bottom of the basement stairs.
For additional coverage, install Alarms in all rooms, halls, and storage
areas, where temperatures normally remain between 40˚ F and 100˚F
(4˚ C and 38˚ C).
Recommended Placement
When installing on the wall, the top edge of Smoke Alarms should
be placed between 4 inches (102 mm) and 12 inches (305 mm) from
the wall/ceiling line.
When installing on the ceiling, place the Alarm as close to the center
as possible.
In either case, install at least 4 inches (102 mm) from where the
wall and ceiling meet. See “Avoiding Dead Air Spaces” for more
information.
NOTE: For any location, make sure no door or other obstruction could
keep carbon monoxide or smoke from reaching the Alarm.
Installing Smoke/CO Alarms in Mobile Homes
For minimum security install one Smoke/CO Alarm as close to each
sleeping area as possible. For more security, put one unit in each room.
Many older mobile homes (especially those built before 1978) have little
or no insulation. If your mobile home is not well insulated, or if you are
unsure of the amount of insulation, it is important to install units on
inside walls only.

WHERE THIS ALARM SHOULD NOT BE INST ALLED
Do NOT locate this Smoke/CO Alarm:
In garages, furnace rooms, crawl spaces and unfinished attics. Avoid
extremely dusty, dirty or greasy areas.
Where combustion particles are produced. Combustion particles
form when something burns. Areas to avoid include poorly ventilated
kitchens, garages, and furnace rooms. Keep units at least 20 feet
(6 meters) from the sources of combustion particles (stove, furnace,
water heater, space heater) if possible. In areas where a 20-foot
(6 meter) distance is not possible – in modular, mobile, or smaller
homes, for example it is recommended the Smoke Alarm be
placed as far from these fuel-burning sources as possible. The
placement recommendations are intended to keep these Alarms at
a reasonable distance from a fuel-burning source, and thus reduce
“unwanted” alarms. Unwanted alarms can occur if a Smoke Alarm is
placed directly next to a fuel-burning source. Ventilate these areas
as much as possible.
Within 5 feet (1.5 meters) of any cooking appliance. In air streams
near kitchens. Air currents can draw cooking smoke into the smoke
sensor and cause unwanted alarms.
In extremely humid areas. This Alarm should be at least 10 feet
(3 meters) from a shower, sauna, humidifier, vaporizer, dishwasher,
laundry room, utility room, or other source of high humidity.
In direct sunlight.
In turbulent air, like near ceiling fans or open windows. Blowing air
may prevent CO or smoke from reaching the sensors.
In areas where temperature is colder than 40˚ F (4˚ C) or hotter than
100˚ F (38˚ C). These areas include non-airconditioned crawl spaces,
unfinished attics, uninsulated or poorly insulated ceilings, porches,
and garages.
In insect infested areas. Insects can clog the openings to the sensing
chamber.
Less than 12 inches (305 mm) away from fluorescent lights.
Electrical “noise” can interfere with the sensor.
In “dead air” spaces. See “Avoiding Dead Air Spaces”.
AVOIDING DEAD AIR SPACES
“Dead air” spaces may prevent smoke from reaching the Smoke/CO
Alarm. To avoid dead air spaces, follow installation recommendations
below.
On ceilings, install Smoke/CO Alarms as close to the center of the
ceiling as possible. If this is not possible, install the Smoke/CO Alarm at
least 4 inches (102 mm) from the wall or corner.
For wall mounting (if allowed by building codes), the top edge of
Smoke/CO Alarms should be placed between 4 inches (102 mm) and
12 inches (305 mm) from the wall/ceiling line, below typical “dead air”
spaces.
On a peaked, gabled, or cathedral ceiling, install first Smoke/CO
Alarm within 3 feet (0.9 meters) of the peak of the ceiling, measured
horizontally. Additional Smoke/CO Alarms may be required depending
on the length, angle, etc. of the ceiling's slope. Refer to NFPA 72 for
details on r ements for sloped or peaked ceilings.equir
