                     Should your smoke alarm enter a low battery
                     condition, the unit will emit an audible ‘chirp’
                     once every 40 seconds. When this occurs you
                     must replace the battery immediately. Your
                     smoke alarm will continue to warn of this low
                     battery condition for at least 7 days, however,
                     failure to change the battery after this time
                     would mean your smoke alarm has insufficient
                     power to alert you in a real fire situation.
