QUICK QUIET™ FALSE ALARM CONTROL™
Smoke Alarm
• Alarm(s) stop sounding within 10 seconds.
• RED light blinks once every 10 seconds on
all trigger alarms.
• Quiets the smoke alarm for up to 15 minutes
(unless smoke present indicates an emer-
gency condition).
CO Alarm (CO Reset)
• Alarm(s) stop sounding within 10 seconds.
• BLUE light blinks once every 10 seconds on
all trigger alarms.
• Quiets the CO alarm for up to 6 minutes
(unless the CO levels present indicate an
emergency condition).

ORANGE or BLUE light will flash only on the
trigger alarm(s).
SMART QUIET™
Smoke or CO Alarm
• The alarm(s) on any non-triggering units
(those not actually sensing smoke or CO)
stop sounding within 10 seconds. Trigger
alarms will continue to sound.
• Non-triggering alarms remain silent for
approximately one minute to allow you time
to listen for and identify the location of the
triggering alarm(s) that actually detected the
dangerous condition. MOVE AWAY from
areas where you hear trigger alarms
sounding if at all possible.
WARNING
If at any time smoke or CO is heavy enough to indicate a dangerous situation, the alarm may
not silence, or may start sounding again quickly. DO NOT ignore the alarm!
TAKE EMERGENCY ACTION IMMEDIATELY!
• After one minute, if a dangerous condition
persists, all units will go back into alarm.
DO NOT IGNORE the trigger alarm(s), and be
aware that an extremely dangerous situation
exists at that location(s) in your home.
In an interconnected series, the RED-YELLOW-
ORANGE or BLUE light will only flash on the
trigger alarm(s).
LATCHING LED ALARM INDICATOR
The Latching LED Alarm Indicator activates
automatically. It helps you identify the original
trigger alarm(s) in an interconnected series after
a smoke or CO event.
NOTE: If the unit is operating on battery power
only (GREEN light is OFF), the latching lights will
blink approximately once per minute.
Smoke Alarm - after a smoke alarm condition,
the triggering alarm’s RED light blinks 3 times
every 10 seconds until manually reset.
CO Alarm - after a CO alarm condition, the
triggering alarm’s BLUE light blinks 4 times every
10 seconds until manually reset.
SMART QUIET™ FOR LOW BATTERY ALERT
You can silence the Low Battery Alert for up to 8
hours by pressing and releasing the Smart
Button. The sensor remains active.
This allows family members to go back to sleep
or gives you time to purchase a replacement bat-
tery. It is important that you replace the battery
as soon as possible to continue your protection!
