LOCATING ALARMS
SMOKE ALARMS
Sufficient smoke must enter the Smoke Alarm before it will re­spond. The Smoke Alarm needs tobewithin7.5 metres (25 ft) of the fire to respond quickly. It alsoneedstobein a position where its alarm canbe heard throughout your home, so it can wake the occupants in time for all to escape. A single give some protection if it is properly installed, but most homes will require two given. For maximum protection you should put individual Smoke Alarms in all the rooms where fire is most likely to break out, (apart from kitchens etc. see Locations to Avoid).
A Smoke Alarm should be located between the sleeping area and the most likely sources of fire (living room or kitchen for ex ample), But itshould not be more than 7.5metres (25ft) from the door to any room where a fire might start, and the escape route from the house.
Important: This Smoke Alarm is designed for a single occu pancy in a residential type environment.

HEAT ALARMS
The Heat Alarm gives a fire warning when the temperature at
the unit reaches 58° C. It is ideal for kitchens, garages, boiler
houses and other areas where there are normally high levels of fumes, smoke or dust i.e. places where Smoke Alarms cannot

be installed without the risk of excessive nuisance alarms. A Heat Alarm should only be used in a room adjoining an escape route, in conjunction with Smoke Alarms on the escape routes.
All the Heat Alarms and Smoke Alarms should be intercon­nected to ensure the early warning will be heard, particularly by somebody sleeping. A properly designed early warning fire sys­tem ensures the alarm is given before the escape routes be come blocked with smoke. Therefore there must be Smoke Alarms along the escape routes as Heat Alarms would not give sufficient warning. However, a fire in a closed room (e.g. kitchen) adjoining the escape route, can eventually cause the corridor to become smoke-logged due to smoke leaking out from around the door before adequate warning can be given by detectors in the corridor. (Smoke leaking out from a room is of ten cool and slow moving so it can take a long time to rise to the ceiling, and travel to a detector which could be some distance away). A Heat Alarm in the closed room will give early warning of fire in that roomand help overcome this problem.
Figure 1 illustrates where Heat Alarms and Smoke Alarms should be located in a typical two storey house. Note the spac ings in “Recommended Protection” which ensure the early de tection of fire and that warning will be heard.
Locate Heat Alarms in rooms adjoining or on escape routes ­kitchens, garages, boiler houses etc. where Smoke Alarms are unsuitable. Install within 5.3m (17 feet) of potential sources of fire.
Multi Storey Dwelling with Recommended Protection
Figure 1
Single Storey Dwelling.
If the Home is on one level (a bungalow or mobile home for ex­ample) you shouldput the first Smoke Alarm in a corridor or hall­way between the sleeping and living areas. Place it as near to the living area as possible, but make sure you can hear it loudly enough to wake a person in the bedrooms. (for example, see fig­ure 2)
-
Single Storey Dwelling with Recommended Protection
BEDROOM
KITCHEN
Figure 2
-
BEDROOM BEDROOM
If the bungalow is very large and the corridor or hallway is more
­than say 15 metres (50ft)long, one Smoke Alarm will not be suf
­ficient. This is because no matter where it is located it will be
more than 7.5 metres from potential fires.
In houses with more than one sleeping area, Smoke Alarms should be placed between each sleeping area and the living area.
DINING
Multi Storey Dwellings
If the home is on more than one level the best place for the first Smoke Alarm is in the downstairs hallway nearthe stairs. This is because smoke is likely to be detectable in the hallway before it reaches the upstairs landing and bedrooms. The second Smoke Alarm should be upstairs, because the downstairs Smoke Alarm is unlikely to detect the smoke from a fire in a bedroom upstairs (see figure 1).
Maximum Protection
For maximum protection you should put individual Smoke Alarms in all the rooms where fire is most likely to break out (apart from the locations to avoid, mentioned below). Ensure that they are all interconnected. The living room is the most likely place for a fire to start at night, followed by the kitchen and then the dining room. You should also consider putting Smoke Alarms in any bedrooms where fires might occur, for instance, where there is an electrical appliance such as an electricblanket or heater, or where the occupant is a smoker. You could also consider putting Smoke Alarms in any rooms where the occu pant is unable to respond very well to a fire starting in the room, such as an elderly or sick person or a very young child.
Checking you can hear the Smoke & Heat Alarms
With the Alarm sounding in its intended location, check you are able to hear it in each bedroom with the door closed, above the sound of the radio. The radio should be set to a reasonably loud conversation level. If you can’t hear it over your radio the chances are that it wouldn’t wake a person.
If a Smoke Alarm is too far away for it to wake a person, it is best to link it to another Smoke Alarm or Heat Alarm near the bed­room. The following alarms EI 100R3, 105R3 & 103R can be in­terconnected - when one alarm senses smoke, all interconnected alarms respond (see below for further details).
LOCATIONS TO AVOID
Don’t place Smoke Alarms in any of the following areas:
·
Bathrooms, kitchens, shower rooms, garages or other rooms where the smoke alarm may be triggered by steam, condensation, normal smoke or fumes. Keep at least 6 me tres (20 feet) away from sources of smoke - wall mounting if necessary.
Don’t place Heat Alarms in any of the following areas:
·
Bathrooms, shower rooms or other room where the unit may be triggered by steam or condensation.
Don’t place Smoke or Heat Alarms in any of the following areas:
·
-
Places where the normal temperature can exceed 40° C (104° F) or be below 4° C (39° F) e.g. attics, furnace rooms
etc. Directly above ovens or kettles, as the heat/steam could cause nuisance alarms.
·
Near a decorative object, door, light fitting, window molding etc., that may prevent smoke or heat from entering
the Alarm.

trolled lights and wiring - some dimmers can cause inter ference.
Locate unit at least1.5m (5 feet) and route wiring at least 1m
·
(3 feet) away for fluorescent light fittings as electrical “noise” and/or flickering may effect the unit. Do not wire into the same circuit as fluorescent lights or dimmers.
· Do not locate in insect infested areas. Small insects get-
ting into the smokedetectorchamber can cause intermittent alarms. Insects and contamination on the Heat Alarm sen­sor can increase its response time.
POSITIONING SMOKE & HEAT ALARMS
The location must comply with applicable building regulations.
Ceiling Mounting
Hot smoke rises and spreads out, so a central ceiling position is the preferred location. The air is “dead” and does not move in corners, therefore Smoke & Heat Alarms must be mounted away from corners. Place the unit at least 300mm (12 inches) from any light fitting or decorative object which might obstruct smoke / heat entering the Smoke Alarm. Keep at least 300mm (12 “) away from walls. See figure 3.

90cm
On a sloping Ceiling
In areas with sloping or peaked ceilings install your Smoke Alarm 90 cm (3 feet) from the highest point measured horizon tally (see figure 4), because “dead air” at the apex may prevent smoke from reaching the unit.
-
Wall Mounting
When a ceiling position is not practical (for example on a ceiling having exposed beams or joists, or built-in radiant heating) put the top edge of your Smoke Alarm between 150 and 300mm (6 and 12 inches) below the ceiling. Keep at least 300mm (12 inches) from room corners. (see figure 3).
Wall mounting is not recommended for Heat Alarms.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT PRECAUTION: Do not install the actual
smoke/heat alarm itself in new or renovated buildings until all work is completed (including floor coverings) and the building has been fully cleaned. The wiring can be installed when appro priate. (Excessive dust and debris from building work can con taminate the smoke chamber and cause problems, it will also invalidate the guarantee). If it must be installed, cover it com­pletely, particularly around the edges, with a dust cover (eg. a

terconnected so that when one senses fire all alarm. Do not interconnect to any other type of alarm. The unit initiating the
alarm can be identified by its LED flashing every second. Figure
­6 shows the interconnect wiring.
­These Alarms should beinterconnectedonly within the confines of a single family living unit. If they are interconnected between different units there may be excessive nuisance alarms. Every body may not be aware that they are being tested or that it is a nuisance alarm caused by cooking etc.
After Installation
Test unit by pressing the test button. The Smoke/Heat Alarm horn should sound within 10 seconds and the relay contacts should change over about 4 seconds after the horn sounds. When the button is released the Alarm will stop and the relay contacts will change back about 4 seconds later. Check that the chosen control panel is correctly recording the alarm condition. If the unit fails to operate correctly check the connections and the panel carefully. Check the unit is receiving power and that the voltage is within specification.
CHECKING & MAINTAINING YOUR ALARMS
INSPECTION & TESTING PROCEDURE
It is recommended that you test your Smoke/Heat Alarms at least once a week to be sure the unit is working. It will also help you and your family to become familiar with the sound of the Alarm.
Press the test button (see figure 6) for up to 10 seconds to ensure the sensor, electronics and sounder are working. A red light behind the test button or on the cover will flash every second while horn is sounding. The alarm will stop when the button is re leased. Pressing the test button simulates the effect of smoke/heat during a real fire and is the best way to ensure the Alarm is operating cor rectly.
WARNING: DO NOT TEST WITH FLAME
This can set fire to your Alarm and damage your house.
We do not recommend testing with smoke or heat as the results can be misleading unless special apparatus is used.
CLEANING YOUR ALARM
Clean your Alarms regularly,particularly in dusty areas. Use the narrow nozzle attachment of your vacuum cleaner to remove dust, insects and cobwebs from the sides and cover slots where the smoke or heat enters. To clean the cover, wipe with a damp cloth. Dry cover thoroughlywitha lint free cloth.If the contamina

tion around the outer case indicates that the area is particularly dirty, remove the Alarm from the ceiling. Check that the open ings in the black smoke sensing chamber are not clogged by visually inspecting them after opening the cover of the Smoke Alarms. If they are clogged - an extermely rare occurance - the Smoke Alarm must be replaced.
WARNING: Do not paint your Alarm.
Other than the cleaning described above, no other customer servicing of this product is required. Repairs, when needed, must be performed by the manufacturer.
All Alarms are prone to dust and insect ingress which can cause false alarms or failure to alarm.
The latest design, materials and manufacturing techniques have been used in the construction of our Alarms to minimize the effects of contamination. However it is impossible to com pletely eliminate the effect of dust andinsect contamination, and therefore, to prolong the life of the Alarm you must ensure that it is kept clean so that excess dust does not build up. Any insects or cobwebs in the vicinity of the Alarm should be promptly re moved.
In certain circumstances even with regular cleaning, contamina­tion can build up in the smoke sensing chamber causing the alarm to sound or fail. If this happens the alarm must bereturned to the manufacturer for servicing or replacement. Contamina­tion is beyond our control, it is totally unpredictable and is con­sidered normal wear and tear. For this reason, contamination is not covered by the guarantee and a charge is made for servicing such units.
If you experience persistent false alarms, inparticular locations, due to contaminationof the smoke chamber you could consider replac ing Optical Smoke Alarms (
EI 100R3). Ionisation type alarms are less susceptible to dust
(
EI 105R3) with Ionisation SmokeAlarms
than Optical type alarms. Heat Alarms are the most immune to contamination(
EI 103R).
NUISANCE ALARMS
Alarms caused bycooking fumesetc. can be readily silenced by fanning the unit with a newspaper or similiar.
If, when the alarm goes off, there is no sign of smoke, heat or noise to indicate that there is a fire, you should get your family into a safe place, before you start investigating.
Check the house carefully in case there is a small fire smould­ering somewhere.
Check whether there is some source of smoke or fumes, for ex ample cooking fumes being drawn past the Smoke Alarm by an extractor.
If there are frequent nuisance/false alarms it may be necessary to re-locate the device away from the source of the fumes.
10
If for some reason the alarm continues to sound without smoke or heat being present (due to insect infestation or contamination
­build-up for example)the alarmscan besilenced by disconnect ing the 12 Volt supply.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using household protective devices, basic safety precau tions should always be followed, including those listed below:
Please read all instructions.
·
Rehearse emergency escape plans so everyone at home
·
knows what to do in case the alarm sounds. Further informa tion can be obtained from the Home Office Publication enti tled “Smoke Detectorsin the Home” (FB2) or from your local fire prevention officer.
To maintain sensitivity to smoke/heat, do not paint or cover
·
-
the alarm in any manner; do not permit any accumulation of cobwebs, dust or grease.
If unit has been damaged in any way or does not function
·
properly,do not attempt a repair. Return Alarm (see - Getting
-
your Alarm Serviced).
· This appliance is only intended for premises having a resi-
dential type environment.
· Smoke / Heat Alarms are not a substitute for insurance. The
supplier or manufacturer is not your insurer.
· The chamber inside the Ionisation (
EI 100R3) Smoke Alarm
contains a small amount of radioactive material. Do not tamper with the chamber. You may safely install and clean the Smoke Alarm following this leaflet’s instructions.
· Ionisation Smoke Alarms can be disposed of in normal
household rubbish, no more than one alarm per dustbin.
-
·
Do not dispose of your Alarm in a fire.
PLANNING YOUR ESCAPE ROUTE FOR
WHEN THE ALARM GOES OFF
Use the Smoke / Heat Alarm Test Buttons to familiarize your family with the Alarm sound and to practice fire drills regularly with all familymembers. Drawup afloor plan that will show each member at least 2 escape routes from each room in the house. Children tend to hide when they don’t know what to do. Teach children how to escape, open windows, and use roll up fire lad ders and stools without adult help. Make sure they know what to do if the alarm goes off - see below.
-
11
1. Check room doors for heat or smoke. Do not open a hot door. Use
-
an alternate escape route. Close doors behind you as you leave.
2. If smoke is heavy, crawl out, stay
-
ing close to floor. Take short breaths, if possible, through a wet cloth or hold your breath. More peo ple die from smoke inhalation than from flames.
-
-
3. Get out as fast as you can. Do not stop for packing. Have a prear ranged meeting place outside for all family members. Check everybody is there.
4. Call the Fire Brigade from a neigh bour’s house. Remember to give your name and address.
5. NEVER re-enter a burning house.
Limitations of Smoke / Heat Alarms
Smoke/Heat Alarms have significantly helped to reduce the number of fire fatalities in countries where they are widely in­stalled.
However independent authorities have stated that they may be ineffective in some circumstances. There are a number of rea sons for this:
·
The Alarms will not work if 12 Volt power supply is off or if they are not connected properly.
·
Smoke / Heat Alarms will not detect fire if sufficient smoke / heat does not reach the alarm. Smoke / heat may be pre vented from reaching the Alarm if the fire is too far away, for example, if the fire is on another floor, behind a closed door, in a chimney, in a wall cavity, or if the prevailing air draughts carry the smoke/heat away. Installing Smoke / Heat Alarms on both sides of closed doors and installing more than one
-
Smoke / Heat Alarm as recommended in this leaflet very sig nificantly improves the probability of early detection.
·
The Alarm may not be heard.
·
A Smoke / Heat Alarm may not wake a person who has taken drugs or alcohol.
·
Smoke / Heat Alarms may not detect every type of fire to give sufficient early warning. They are particularly ineffec tive with: fires caused by smoking in bed, escaping gas, vio lent explosions. poor storage of flammable rags and/or liquids, (for example petrol, paint, spirits etc), overloaded electrical circuits, arson and children playingwith matches.
12
Smoke / Heat Alarms don’t last indefinitely. For example if
·
there is build up of contamination performance will be im
paired. The manufacturer recommends replacement of the Smoke / Heat Alarms after 10 years as a precaution.

TROUBLESHOOTING
ALARM SOUNDS FOR NO APPARENT REASON:
(1) Identify the alarm source. On all interconnected units, the
red light under the test button or on the cover will flash ra pidily only on the unit which is the source of the alarm.
(2) Check for fumes, steam etc. from the kitchen or bathroom.
Paint and other fumes can cause nuisance alarms.
(3) Fan the unit vigorously witha newspaper to disperse fumes.
(4) If alarm does not stop, disconnect the 12V supply.
INTERCONNECTED ALARM DO NOT ALL SOUND:
(1) Hold testbutton for 10 seconds after first alarm has sounded
-
to ensure signal is transmitted to all units.
(2) Check that cables have been correctly connected and that
the connections are tight.
FREQUENT NUISANCE ALARMS OCCUR:
(1) Close kitchen / bathroom door when in use.
(2) Ensure that the alarm is sited at least 6m away from sources
of fumes.
(3) Contamination from insects, paint or paint fumes may have
occured. (see “Clean your Alarm”).
(4) If the problem persists, resiting of the unit should be consid-
ered. Alternatively, replace the unit with an Optical unit, as suming that the problem is with an Ionisation type alarm.
