This instruction leaflet contains important
nformation on the correct installation and
i
operation of your smoke alarm. Read this
leaflet fully before attempting installation
and retain for future reference.
LOCATING THE SMOKE ALARM
This smoke alarm is a single station
photoelectric alarm and should NOT
be connected to other smoke alarms.
If your dwelling is on a single storey, for
minimum protection you should fit an alarm
in the hallway between the living areas
(incl. Kitchens) and sleeping areas. Place
it as near to the living areas as possible
and ensure the alarm is audible when the
bedrooms are occupied.
If your dwelling is multi-storey, for minimum protection one alarm should be fitted
at the bottom of the staircase with further
alarms fitted on each upstairs landing.
This includes basements but excludes
crawl spaces and unfinished attics.
NOTE: For maximum protection an alarm
should be fitted in every room (except
kitchen, bathroom and garage).
DO NOT FIT AN ALARM IN THE
KITCHEN or BATHROOM, as cooking
fumes or steam may trigger the alarm.
DO NOT FIT ALARM IN A GARAGE, as
exhaust fumes are likely to set it off.
POSITIONING THE SMOKE ALARM
Ceiling Mounting
As hot smoke rises and spread out, it is
advisable to mount on a ceiling in a central
position. Avoid areas where there is no air
circulation. E.g. Corners of rooms and
keep away from items which may prevent
the free flow of air. Place the unit at least
300 mm from and light fitting or decorative
object which might obstruct smoke / heat
entering the alarm. Keep at least 300 mm
away from walls.
Wall Mounting
Do not mount tight into the corners. Put the
top edge of your smoke alarm between
150 and 300 mm below the ceiling. Keep
at least 300 mm from room corners.
On a Sloping Ceiling
In areas with sloping or peaked ceilings
install your Smoke Alarm 900 mm from
the highest point measured horizontally
because “dead air” at the apex may
prevent smoke from reaching the unit.
Areas to be avoided include the following
Situations where the temperature may fall
below 0°C or rise above 40°C.
Humid areas such as bathrooms, kitchens,
shower rooms where the relative humidity
may exceed 90%.
Near a decorative object, door, light fitting,
window molding etc., that may prevent
smoke or heat from entering the alarm.
Adjacent to or directly above hot components such as radiators or wall vents that
can effect the direction of air currents.
In very dusty or dirty environments such as
workshops.
Locate unit at least 1.5 m and route wiring
at least 1 m away for fluorescent light fittings as electrical “noise” and/or flickering
may affect the unit. Do not wire into the
same circuit as fluorescent lights or dimmers.
Do not locate in insect infested areas.
Insects and contamination on the Heat
Alarm sensor can increase its response
time.
HUSH OR SILENCE FEATURE
This Smoke Alarm has a built-in Hush or
Silence feature incorporated into the Test
button.
If cooking or other non-hazardous sources
cause the unwanted alarm, it can be temporarily silenced by depressing the test
button and holding for approximately 3
seconds. The alarm will enter a dormant
period for up to 15 minutes. The red LED
will flash every 10 seconds to indicate the
sensitivity is reduced. At the end of the
hush period the alarm will then reset to
normal sensitivity.
NOTE - If the smoke density increases during this period (i.e. from a fire) the unit will
go into alarm mode.
MAINTAINING YOUR SMOKE ALARM
If the smoke detector emits a short ‘beep’
approximately once a minute the battery is
at the end of its life and should be replaced
immediately. This low voltage warning will
be given for at least 7 days. A fresh battery
should last for approximately one year.
If the red indicator light (LED) does not
flash every minute then replace the battery.
Test the alarm for correct operation using
test facility, whenever the battery is replaced.
Clean your smoke alarm regularly to prevent dust build up. This can be done using
a vacuum cleaner with the brush attachment. Clean gently around the front grilled
section and sides.
The apparatus shall not be exposed to
dripping or splashing.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Installation of your smoke alarm is only
one step in your safety plan. Other im portant steps should be taken to further
improve your safety.
Install the smoke alarm properly, following
this instruction leaflet.
Test your smoke alarm weekly.
Replace the battery immediately once
depleted.
Do not smoke in bed.
Keep matches & lighters away from
children.
Store flammable materials in a proper
manner and never use them near naked
flames or sparks.
Maintain emergency equipment such as
Fire Extinguishers, escape ladders etc and
ensure all occupants know how to use
them correctly.
Plan an escape route/s from your building
in advance and ensure all occupants are
aware of them. Re-enforce this awareness
periodically through-out the year.
Make sure escape routes remain free of
any obstructions.
