1. POSITIONING
Your smoke alarm is suitable for the
landing, hallway, bedroom, living room
and dining room.
SB1-AE OPTICAL SMOKE ALARM
USER MANUAL
Optical smoke alarms are suitable for detecting slow smouldering fires. Like other smoke alarms, they can be subject to nuisance alarms from
steam and should not be placed near bathrooms.
For the earliest warning, we recommend smoke alarms are fitted in all rooms where the temperature is between 0°C (32°F) and 40°C (104°F).
Prolonged exposure to temperatures outside those stated above will reduce product life.
Check with local building and fire regulations for your property, to ensure compliance.
This smoke alarm is suitable for use in mobile homes and caravans. This smoke alarm is not intended for any non-residential, commercial or
industrial application, nor for any other purpose than described.
