13. Permanently Disable Alarm / Discharge Battery
WARNING: FAILURE TO DISCHARGE ALARM BATTERY AS INSTRUCTED PRIOR TO
DISPOSAL MAY CREATE POTENTIAL FOR LITHIUM BATTERY RELATED FIRE OR HAZARD.
WARNING: DISCHARGING THE ALARM BATTERY IS PERMANENT
• Once the alarm battery has been discharged, it cannot be reactivated!
• Once discharged, the alarm will NO LONGER DETECT SMOKE OR CO.
• Once the alarm battery is discharged, the battery is depleted and the alarm will no longer function.
• Once the alarm battery has been discharged, the alarm cannot be mounted onto the mounting plate or reactivated.
To Permanently Disable Alarm / Discharge Battery:
• Rotate the alarm counterclockwise to remove it from the mounting
plate.
• Disconnect AC wiring harness.
• Push in the dashed area with a screwdriver to break tab (Figure 13-A).
• After the tab is broken, use the screwdriver to turn the red slotted
arrow to the "Permanently Disable Alarm / Discharge Battery" loca-
tion. This will disable the alarm, stop the low battery or end of unit
life “chirps” and render the alarm safe for disposal by draining the
battery (Figure 13-B).
