Replace the battery at least once a year, or immediately when the alarm chirps approximately once a minute (indicating a low battery).

Clean your smoke alarm at least once a month to remove dust and debris. Use a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush attachment to clean the exterior of the alarm and the openings. Do not paint the alarm.
