Battery changed
2006-11-03 08:15:28 · update #1
A smoke alarm beeps when the battery needs to be replaced. You should not wait for the beeping but should replace the battery each year. A good way to remember is do it on the switch from daylight savings time.

some times they need the battery changed and will take a minite to stop beeping. if new battery is low then it will continue to beep. if the smoke alarm is plug due to too much smoke then it needs to be replaced

First don't smoke(Ha Ha)!! Theres a small red button on the top or inside the smoke detector. All you have to do is push the red button to reset your smoke alarm. If you have a hard wire smoke detector you have to punch in your security code, and call the fire department to let them know if you have a problem or not.

Put a new battery in it. The battery is low.

Have you vacuumed it? Most of the time, that's all it needs. Dust particles get into them and interfere with the electrical componits. This is also true for battery chargers,i.e. chargers for power tools,etc. So, once in a while vacuum them.
