Installation Guide
How to Install
1. Remove all your new Kidde wireless interconnect devices from
their respective packages and place them in front of you.
2. Find the eight-position DIP switch located inside the battery
compartment (see Figure 1).
3. Select one of the units. You will define the ID pattern of your
system by positioning the switches of the DIP switch in a random
pattern. The ID pattern will need to be the same for each alarm.
This ID pattern will differentiate your alarm system from similar
systems nearby. Do not use the default ID pattern that your units
are shipped with.
4. Use a pen or pencil to change the switches in each of the Kidde
wireless devices to match the pattern you selected in Step 3.
Ensure that the pattern sequence is not reversed.
5. Power each unit after setting the ID pattern by installing the
batteries (see the Installing Batteries section). The alarms only
read the ID that has been set when they are first supplied power.
