    great instructions! well done. For those who still have the detector chirping after you installed the battery, make sure that you remove the detector from the wall/ceiling before replacing the battery. I simply inserted a new battery while the detector was still attached and it kept on chirping. Remove the detector, insert battery, and re-install the detector

It was a very frustrating experience, and some bad words were said. We checked the company website, but that was not helpful. Then, we watched this video and were finally able to get our smoke alarm to stop chirping. Thank you very, very much!!!

    Your instructions are clear and easy to follow. Thanks for taking the time to show us how it’s done. However, I tried countless times to completely remove the smoke detector, identical to the one you have. It’s was installed at the time the house was built in 2015 and there’s no paint or any other small object stuck in there preventing it from turning counter clockwise. Do you have any tip on how to remove it? I have been able to remove others throughout the house (same model) but that one seems impossible. Thanks in advanced to you or who ever takes the time to reply.

    @cathynakayama470 3 роки тому +4

    I went through all this yesterday there was no way I could get it off the ceiling but I changed several batteries and it still would not work. I went online and found that I had to press the button to discharge something which made it beep a bunch of times. This still did not work when I reinstalled the battery so i turned off the fuse to this room and then pressed the button to discharge the detector, put the battery back in, turned on the power again and it finally stopped beeping. Mine are hardwired into the ceiling also. But in this video you are not turning the power off, is that because you disconnect the detector from the ceiling?
