WARNING: Turn off AC power before attempting to connect wire harnesses or adapters.
This smoke alarm adapter allows the installation of new Kidde alarms to existing “legacy” Kidde wiring harnesses. When using this adapter, the power harness supplied with your new Kidde alarm is not used. Connect the 20-9003 adapter to the legacy (existing) Kidde wiring harness. To install the adapter, push the large end of the adapter into the existing wired Kidde harness and confirm it snaps into position. Give a small tug to make sure the adapter is snapped into place. Then insert the opposite end of the adapter into the back of the new unit.
After installation, turn on AC power and be sure that the AC power indicator is operating and test all your alarms following the instructions supplied by the alarm manufacturer for your specific alarm model. If the alarms are interconnected push the test button on each alarm and verify that all the interconnected alarms sound when any alarm is activated. The interconnect system should not exceed the NFPA interconnect limit of 12 smoke alarms.
