The Model 0918 Smoke Alarm uses two (2) 9 volt batteries. This
smoke alarm is powered by a 9V lithium battery (carbon zinc and
alkaline batteries may also be used). A fresh battery should last
for one year under normal operating conditions. This alarm has a
low battery monitor circuit which will cause the alarm to "chirp"
approximately every 30 - 40 seconds for a minimum of seven (7)
days when the smoke alarm battery gets low. The chirp will be
accompanied by a flash of the Safety Light. Replace both batteries
when this condition occurs.
USE ONLY THE FOLLOWING 9 VOLT BATTERIES FOR SMOKE
