AND BRK® WIRING HARNESS
This smoke alarm adapter allows the installation of new Kidde alarm to existing
First Alert® and BRK® wiring harnesses. When using this adapter, the power
harness supplied with your new Kidde alarm is not used. You will need to remove
the existing First Alert® and BRK
®
mounting plate and install the mounting plate
supplied with your new Kidde alarm. Connect the KA-B adapter to the First
Alert® and BRK® wiring harness. To install the adapter, pinch the tabs on the
side and insert into the opening of your Kidde unit (FIGURE 2). Secure the
Kidde alarm to the mounting plate.
After installation, be sure that the AC power indicator is operating and test
all your alarms following the instructions supplied by the alarm manufacturer
for your specific alarm model. If the alarms are interconnected push the
test button on each alarm and verify that all the interconnected alarms
sound when any alarm is activated. The interconnect system should not
exceed the NFPA interconnect limit of 12 smoke alarms
