    Our technician at firealarm.com recommends following these steps for proper installation of the Kidde P4010ACS smoke alarm:

    Begin by turning off the power to the circuit where you’ll be installing the smoke alarm.
    Remove the existing smoke alarm, if applicable, and disconnect the wires from the old unit.
    Connect the interconnect wire from the Kidde P4010ACS to the interconnect wire in the electrical box.
    Mount the mounting bracket provided with the smoke alarm onto the electrical box, ensuring it’s securely fastened.
    Connect the hot (black), neutral (white), and interconnect (orange) wires from the smoke alarm to the corresponding wires in the electrical box.
    Align the smoke alarm with the mounting bracket and twist it into place until it clicks securely.
    Turn the power back on to the circuit and test the smoke alarm to ensure proper functionality.
    Finally, press the test button on the smoke alarm to verify that it triggers the interconnected alarms throughout your home.
    Following these steps will ensure a proper installation of the Kidde P4010ACS smoke alarm, providing you and your family with reliable fire detection and safety.
