Answer 1

To test a hard-wired smoke detector, locate the test button on the device and press and hold it until the alarm sounds. This tests the alarm sound and verifies that the detector is receiving power. It's recommended to test smoke detectors at least once a month and replace batteries or the entire unit as needed.

Answer 2

Press and hold the test button on the smoke detector. It can take a few seconds to begin, but a loud, ear-piercing siren should emanate from the smoke detector while the button is pressed. If the sound is weak or non-existent, replace your batteries.

Answer 3
