Your RadioShack Smoke and Fire Alarm is
a simple-to-install warning device. The
alarm’s loud tone helps warn you if there is
smoke present, and its low-battery indica-
tor lets you know when it is time to change
the battery.

You can set the alarm so it sounds a re-
duced tone when there is smoke from a
known source (such as cooking) in the ar-
ea, to reduce false alarms.

• Sale and use of alarms for mobile ap-

plications is prohibited in California
and certain other states. Check local
regulations before installing this
alarm.

• Your alarm contains less than 1 micro-

curie (37 kilobecquerel) of Americium
241, a radioactive material. To avoid
exposure to this substance, do not
tamper with the sealed radioactive
source inside the alarm.

• To dispose of the alarm safely, return it

to your local RadioShack store or your
local Health Department. Do not dis-
pose of your alarm in any other way. 

This alarm complies with State of Califor-
nia regulations requiring that temporal au-
dible fire alarm signals be provided when a
fire alarm system is used for total evacua-
tion of occupants.

All fire alarm systems installed in the State
of California must comply with these regu-
lations. If you are not sure if your state re-
quires that your fire alarm system comply
with these regulations, consult your state’s
fire regulatory authority.

If you are installing a single alarm, install it as
close as possible to bedrooms. Since bed-
rooms are usually farthest from the exit, in-
stall the alarm in the hallway outside the
bedrooms.

Depending on the layout of your home or of-
fice, you might need to install more than one
alarm. Install additional alarms in the follow-
ing places:

• in each bedroom

• on each floor level

• stairways

• in sleeping areas where electrical appli-

ances are operated

Never install your alarm:

• in a garage (combustion products are

present when you start your automobile)

• in front of forced air ducts used for heat-

ing and air conditioning

• at the peak of an A-frame type of ceiling

• in areas where the temperature might

fall below 40°F (4.4°C) or rise above
100°F (37.8°C).

During a fire, smoke, heat, and other com-
bustion products rise to the ceiling and
spread horizontally. In standard residential
structures, install the alarm on the ceiling in
the center of a room. (This places it closest
to all points in the room).
