<p>The Kidde Firex i4618 Smoke Alarm is an ionization 120V AC smoke alarm with battery back-up for single or multiple station use. It includes a False Alarm Control feature which allows the user to quiet an unwanted alarm for up to 15 minutes. The i4618 has a front loading battery door, 85 decibel horn, test switch and dual purpose LED indicator; constant green power on LED confirms AC power is present and the flashing red displays alarm/battery status. The unique PowerLink Tab is designed to allow the smoke alarm to be shipped with the battery already installed. It keeps the door from closing until installation, which prevents the battery from draining prematurely. The installer simply removes the PowerLink Tab, closes the door and tests the unit. This results in a faster installation time.</p>
<p>The latching LED feature clearly identifies the smoke alarm that initiated an alarm in an interconnected system with a constantly illuminated red LED. The LED will remain lit until the test button is depressed on that unit.</p>
<p>This smoke alarm mounts to any single or 4 octagon junction box or square-to-round drywall ring and has 8 long pigtails with a Quick Connect harness for permanent connection. The i4618 is interconnectable with up to 11 other compatible Firex smoke alarms and as many as 6 Firex heat alarms for a total of not more than 18 interconnected devices. This Firex unit should be placed in single-family households or in each individual living unit of multiple-family buildings.</p>
<p><strong>Features:<br />
• Latching LED: A red LED flashes until reset for quick, clear identification of the initiating smoke alarm in an interconnected system<br />
• Visible Low Battery Indicator: Helps locate chirping unit<br />
• Front loading battery door: Makes battery changing simple<br />
• PowerLink Tab: Makes installation faster and easier<br />
• False Alarm Control: Quiets unwanted alarms for up to 15 minutes<br />
• Interconnects with other Firex smoke alarms and heat alarms<br />
• Compatible with other contractor preferred Firex products<br />
• Factory sealed housing: Prevents tampering and provides outstanding durability<br />
