Manual Test Button
It is recommended to test your alarm weekly by pressing and holding the test/silence button until the alarm sounds. This verifies the alarm's operation.
To silence a nuisance alarm (e.g., from cooking smoke), press the test/silence button. The alarm will temporarily hush for a period, then reset.
Manteniment
Your Kidde 30CUD10 detector requires minimal maintenance due to its 10-year sealed battery.
- Proves setmanals: As mentioned, press the test/silence button weekly to ensure the alarm is functioning correctly.

- Bateria: The 10-year sealed lithium battery is designed to power the alarm for its entire lifespan. No battery replacement is needed.
- End-of-Life Notification: After approximately 10 years of operation, the alarm will emit an end-of-life signal (a series of chirps) to indicate it's time for replacement. Replace the unit immediately upon receiving this notification.
Resolució de problemes
| Problema | Causa possible | Solució |

Informació important de seguretat
Carbon monoxide (CO) is an invisible, odorless, and tasteless gas that can be fatal. Smoke alarms provide early warning of fire. Neither smoke nor CO alarms are substitutes for property insurance. Always ensure all occupants know the alarm sounds and have an escape plan.
Descripció de la imatge: A map of the United States indicating state-level requirements for carbon monoxide (CO) and smoke alarms. States are color-coded to show if they have CO alarm requirements (blue), CO and smoke alarm requirements (red), or no specific requirements (grey). It also notes cities with 10-year smoke alarm requirements. This highlights the legal aspect of alarm installation.
