FIRE SAFETY DEVICE MANUFACTURER KIDDE division of United Technologies has announced a recall to replace two of its Dual Sensor Smoke Alarms. This announcement was made March 21 in a joint statement by Kidde and the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
The two units in question are Models PI2010 and PI9010. While both of these units have all their components in place, a yellow “cap” 
that should have been removed during the manufacturing process was left in place in some of them, rendering them ineffective.
Consumers are asked to inspect any such units installed in their homes or places of business to determine whether they can see a yellow cap inside. If so, they should call Kidde at (833) 551-773 for further instructions. Under no circumstances should they detach the units until they receive a free replacement from Kidde.

This is the second time in six months that Kidde has issued recalls of fire safety products.
