POSITIONING THE SMOKE
Recommended locations:
Minimum protection:
A smoke detector on each floor.
Maximum protection:
- Smoke detector in all rooms (with the exception
of bathrooms, kitchen, garages, etc.)
- Heat detectors can be installed in bathrooms,
kitchens, airing cupboards, utility rooms, etc.
within 5 metres of a potential source of fire.
•
should preferably
be installed in the
middle of the cei-
ling, at least 50 cm
from the wall.
•
is not possible to
mount the detector
on the wall.
minimum of 30 and
maximum of 50 cm
from the ceiling.
(See Figure 3)
•
pitched roofs, install
the smoke detector
on the sloping wall,
at least 90 cm
(measured vertically)
from the ridge of the roof.
• See minimum and
maximum protection
(figures 1 & 2)
• Ensure that the detector
can always be reached
for testing and cleaning.
Never fit a smoke detector:
•
etc. Places where a smoke detector may go off
needlessly due to condensation, normal smoke or
gases. A smoke detector should be fitted at least 5
metres from such sources of smoke.
• Places where the temperature may exceed 55°
or fall below 0°
place, etc.
•
doors, sockets, lights, fittings, windows, wall
ventilators, etc. which could mean that smoke
does not reach the smoke detector. Minimum
50cm away.
•
the rest of the room. Differences in temperature
can prevent smoke from reaching the detector.
•
•
it hard to reach the detector to test or clean it.

• In very dusty or dirty places. Accumulation of dust
will prevent smoke from reaching the smoke cham-
ber and in time will lead to a false alarm.
•
Some dimmer switches can trigger a fault in the
detector.
•
impulses can adversely affect the functioning of
the detector.
• Outdoors and in spaces where a large number of
insects are found. Small insects in the unit’s detec-
tion chamber can disrupt the functioning of the
detector.
The labels on the rear side of the detector
contain important information.
INSTALLATION
1.
described in: Positioning the smoke detector.
2.
the base plate anticlockwise (to the left).
3.
in the base plate and
drill the holes (use a 6 mm
drill). If you do not use
the dowels, then use a 3
mm drill. Screw the base
plate securely onto the
ceiling. Make sure that
the base plate is tight
against the ceiling so
that no air circulation
above the smoke alarm
is possible, which could
impede smoke detection.
If the opening is too large, this must be remedied
by the use of a filler.
4.
ner into the smoke alarm, pay attention to the +
and -. When activated, the alarm will sound a
tune.
5.
turn it until the smoke detector clicks into the
base plate. Turn the smoke detector clockwise
until you hear a click.
6.
properly and that the battery has been activated
by pressing the test button. A beeping noise that
stops once the test button is released indicates
that the smoke detector has been activated and
is working properly.
ATTENTION:The smoke alarm should be covered
or temporarily removed during renovation work or
structural alterations. Clean the smoke detector
with the soft brush from a vacuum cleaner once the
day’s work is complete, and then replace the
detector, always testing it by pressing the test
button once it has been reinstalled.
WARNING: the smoke alarm loses its functionality
when covered.
FUNCTION TEST
T
lation, monthly and after a period of absence.
•
every 0,5 sec., this will stop once the test button
has been released.
REPLACING THE BATTERIES
• Remove the batteries from the smoke alarm
• Place the new batteries in the correct way into
the smoke alarm. Pay attention to
the + and the -.
• Place the smoke alarm back on the base plate
and test the smoke alarm, see chapter Function
Test.
FUNCTION AND MEANING
AND SOUND SIGNALS
Normal situation: The red LED light will flash once
every 320 seconds.
Alarm: Whenever the detector detects smoke, it will
emit a loud pulsing alarm and the red LED light will
flash continuously (every 0,5 sec.) until the smoke
has cleared.
Low battery signal: A beeping signal every 40
seconds means that the batteries are nearly flat
and need to be replaced immediately. This signal
will sound for 30 days.
See for the recommended batteries chapter
SPECIFICATIONS
Always do the function test when batteries are
replaced.
Test Button: Check that the smoke detector is
working and that the batteries have been activated
by pressing the test button for at least 2-3 seconds.
The smoke detector will give alarm and stop when
you release the test button. Test the function of the
smoke detector once per month. When the alarm
does not sound, have your smoke alarm inspected
by the service point or when the smoke alarm is
more than 10 years old discard the alarm.
HUSH Button: Your detector is fitted with a pause
button (see figure 5). This is the same button as
the test button. Press the pause/test button shortly.
Your smoke detector will then go into a so-called
reduced sensitivity mode for + 10 minutes. The red
LED light will flash every 10 seconds to indicate
that the Hush button has been activated. The
detector will nonetheless sound the alarm if the
smoke is dense or increasing in quantity.
False Alarm: Press the test- hush button to stop
the alarm. (See Hush button)
Pre-alarm status: The red LED light flashes every
second to indicate that the smoke chamber has
been abruptly contaminated and needs to be
cleaned. If thorough vacuuming does not help, then
the contamination is so serious that the detector
must be returned to the factory.
DUST WARNING: 3 short beep signals every 40
seconds means dust in the smoke chamber.
Remove the batteries and clean the smoke detec-
tor by using the soft brush from a vacuum cleaner.
CAUSES OF FALSE ALARM
The smoke detector can be activated by steam,
condensation, dust, smoke and small insects.
These are to be prevented as far as possible. See
section: Never fit a smoke detector. If a detector is
frequently giving a false alarm, it might be necessa-
ry to install the detector in another location.
Maintenance:
•
fluids.
• Clean the detector regularly (once a month) using
the soft brush from a vacuum cleaner. In addition
the smoke alarm can also be cleaned using a
moist cloth.
• Repairs must be carried out by the manufacturer.
The detector must never come into contact with
liquids.
CAUTION: Do not paint to the detector and do not
cover it.
LIMITATIONS OF SMOKE
In countries where they are commonly in use,
smoke detectors have contributed to reducing
deaths and injuries. Independent bodies have esta-
blished that they were insufficient in around 35% of
fires, namely in the following situations:
•
not working. For that reason, you should test the
unit regularly.
•
the event of a fire, meaning the unit cannot be set
off. Examples include a fire on another floor
where there is no smoke detector, a fire behind
closed doors, a fire in a chimney or smoke being
blown away from the detector. For that reason,
smoke detectors are recommended in all rooms,
or at any rate on every floor.
•
be woken by the alarm if that person had consu-
med excess alcohol and/or drugs.
•
smoking in bed, if there is no smoke detector in
the bedroom. In the case of escaping from gas or
violent explosions, improperly storing explosive
products and flammable liquids (petrol, paint,
methylated spirit, etc.), electrical faults, acids,
children playing with matches (fire).
