Silicone bathtub caulk works well.  Put a
small dab into the hole where the wire
enters the detector from the back.
Also seal around the edge of the lens.

After they've been installed and tested,
draw a small bead of silicone around the
perimeter where the cover meets the
back.  Don't use much or you'll never
get it to open again.

One installer said he uses plumber's
putty.  He places a small amount on the
edge of the back, then snaps the cover
in place and wipes off the residue.  I
never tried it but I suppose it would work.
