From the information on the detector, it seems that it takes two 9v PP3 batteries - the rectangular ones that are used in smoke alarms etc.
There should be a diagram inside the battery compartment to show how they fit.
Buy some cheap ones from somewhere like Poundland to try it with, and if it works buy some good ones.

The ones that fit your model, which you don't state.
