خطوات التثبيت:

  1. فصل الطاقة: Turn off the power to the circuit at your main electrical panel before starting any work.
  2. Remove Old Detector (if applicable): Unscrew and remove your existing smoke or CO detector from its mounting bracket. Disconnect the wiring harness.
  3. Install New Mounting Bracket: If your existing mounting bracket is not compatible, install the new twist-and-click mounting bracket provided with your Kidde detector. Secure it to the ceiling or wall using the included hardware.
  4. اتصال السلك:
    • Connect the new wiring harness (pigtail) to your home's electrical wiring. Match black to black (hot), white to white (neutral), and red to red (interconnect, if applicable). Use wire nuts to secure connections.
    • Plug the wiring harness into the back of the new Kidde detector.
  5. إرفاق الكاشف: Push any excess wiring back into the electrical box. Align the detector with the mounting bracket and twist clockwise until it clicks securely into place.
  6. استعادة الطاقة والاختبار: Restore power at the circuit breaker. Press and hold the Test/Hush button on the detector until the alarm sounds to confirm proper operation.

4. تعليمات التشغيل

Your Kidde 30CUA10-V detector provides clear indications of its status and any detected hazards through voice alerts and LED lights.

التنبيهات الصوتية:

The detector uses distinct voice messages to inform you of specific dangers:

  • "Fire!": Indicates smoke detection.
  • "Warning! Carbon Monoxide!": Indicates carbon monoxide detection.
  • Other alerts may include "Replace Alarm" or "Smoke Sensor Defective" for maintenance or troubleshooting.

إشعارات LED:

A multi-color LED light on the detector provides visual status updates:

  • الصمام الأخضر: Indicates normal operation and AC power.
  • العنبر LED: Indicates a fault or error condition. Blinks 1-4 times with 3 chirps every 60 seconds for fault, or twice with 2 chirps every 60 seconds for low battery (though this model has a sealed 10-year battery, this may signify end-of-life or a specific internal fault).
  • الصمام الأحمر: Indicates smoke or carbon monoxide detection, accompanied by a loud 85-decibel alarm.

Interconnect Capability:

When one interconnected alarm detects a hazard, all connected alarms will sound, providing early warning throughout your home. This feature is particularly beneficial in larger homes or those with multiple levels.

5. Maintenance and Testing

Regular maintenance and testing ensure your Kidde detector remains fully functional and provides reliable protection.

Weekly Push Test:

Perform a manual push test once per week to verify the alarm's operation. Press and hold the Test/Hush button until the alarm sounds. This confirms the electronics, battery, and horn are working correctly.

تنظيف:

Clean your detector annually to prevent dust and debris from interfering with its sensors. Use a soft brush attachment on your vacuum cleaner to gently remove dust from the vents. Do not paint the alarm.

البطارية النسخ الاحتياطي:

The 30CUA10-V model features a sealed 10-year lithium battery backup, meaning you will not need to replace batteries for the life of the detector. This eliminates the common issue of low battery chirps.

6. استكشاف الأخطاء وإصلاحها

If your Kidde detector is not functioning as expected, refer to the following common issues and solutions:

  • الإنذارات الكاذبة: The detector features enhanced sensing technology to reduce false alarms from cooking. If false alarms persist, ensure the detector is not placed too close to cooking appliances or in areas with high humidity.
  • Amber LED Blinking with Chirps:
    • 1-4 blinks with 3 chirps every 60 seconds: Indicates a fault condition.
    • 2 blinks with 2 chirps every 60 seconds: Indicates end of unit life or low battery (for models with replaceable batteries; for this sealed unit, it typically signifies end-of-life).
    If a fault persists after cleaning and testing, the unit may need replacement.
  • "Smoke Sensor Defective" Voice Alert: If you hear this specific voice alert, the smoke sensor may be faulty. Perform a manual test. If the issue continues, contact Kidde customer support for assistance or consider replacing the unit.
  • No Power (Green LED Off): Ensure the circuit breaker is on and the detector is properly connected to the 120V AC wiring.

For persistent issues, consult the full user manual or contact Kidde customer support.

8. الضمان والدعم

The Kidde 30CUA10-V detector comes with a 10-year limited warranty. This warranty begins when the alarm is powered on. If the power-on date is unknown, it is recommended to assume the alarm should be replaced after 10 years from the manufacturing date. This warranty applies to the alarm unit itself and is not a battery performance claim, as the battery is sealed for the life of the unit.
