Thanks for this video. It woke me up at 440 am. I had no idea what was going on. Living alone and being short, I struggled a little and got them both down. Thanks again.

this video helped me to the point of success. I read the paper manual no help, I called the company, they were very very helpful and respectful, Kidde👍, so between the two helps this 72yr old guy found out about how to stop the chirping, change the batts as well as the need to change every year. So thank you. 👌🏻

[@zai205]

Thank you so much it was giving me a headache at 4 in the morning

[@schmeerical]

Reminder: If it beeps twice it means the whole alarm is over 10 years old and needs to be replaced. Even with new batteries it will continue to beep.

[@YaMa1850]

Thank you for your comment, this $&@? started beeping at 5:20 am, we changed the battery and continued beeping . That noise made us crazy at that time; 30 minutes latter started beeping another one.

This helped me Soooo much!! Thank you!! I had two going off at the same time. One was in my hall upstairs and one was in my living room. I was in hell!!

[@moviestudioland]

Haha yep. I guess you could take a hammer to it. But that would make a mess. Hammer and wire cutters. But twisting it off and removing the plug is civilized.

[@tjeastcoast1556]

Is it safe to remove with the power still on?

[@RJARRRPCGP]

Is the time to EOL 10 years or 8 years? Been told that it's 10, so I dunno. Looks like it was "expired" contrary to the date printed! Was August 14, 2012 the time of manufacture? I do agree that it looked like it was possibly made before 2011, until I saw the back.

How do you stop making say "fire, fire, fire" every 20 minutes when it's a false alarm? I tried a new battery, shut the power off and on twice and it's fine for half an hour. Any ideas what I should do?

[@soccermommyNPC]

You could have some kind of electrical wiring that is burning if it’s still detecting something...

I have exact same model and changed the battery once it start beeping but it still beeps . Doesn’t help with changing battery .😢

[@moviestudioland]

get a new one. that one has expired

[@chrisgonzalez2078]

I think when you hear the alarm chirp twice it means it's time to replace the old Smoke alarm to a New Smoke Alarm.

[@moviestudioland]

Agree. Into electronics recycle it goes

[@EternalDestiny48]

Thank you! Why do they make them so poorly designed? And like everyone else it went off at 5 a.m.

[@UnionPacificBigBoy-of8xy]

Actually it's not changing the battery one chirp means replace battery but two chirps mean end of life

[@yonniehan]

Thank you so much for this detailed explanation! The kiddie manufacturers video was not very informative.

[@95victorian]

what the heck did people do before youtube?!

[@Sam-hq2kv]

I did that and it still beeps

[@moviestudioland]

baseball bat to it then

[@212Elevators]

The two chirps meant that the unit had REACHED THE END OF ITS LIFE! If it chirped _once_ every minute followed by "Low Battery", then you would've had to replace the battery! Just replace the damn alarm!

[@SofiaRiccardi]

Dont you have to turn off the power first

[@moviestudioland]

Turning off power first always best if you can... Good idea

[@adamn78]

Mine won't come down no matter what. Wtf do they make these damn frustrating things. Battery on the outside is far better!

2 beeps means end of life change the detector

[@firealrm213]

It Reach it’s End of Life

[@dabitzz]

2 beeps like that means replace alarm

[@RJARRRPCGP]

I'm wondering if it means the same thing as "defective", like the issue that my father reported with one of the First Alert LF combo alarms, where he had to have to sent away. Where at least once, if not multiple times, had an incident where it would literally say "Defective!".

[@212Elevators]

@@RJARRRPCGP if defective it's one chirp every 30 seconds NOT followed by "Low battery".
