INTRODUCTION
Groundbreaking Thermoptek technology
combines the very latest in optical sensing
with thermal enhancement, providing faster
response to both fire types eliminating the
need for ionisation sources which can be
harmful to the environment. In addition, this
smoke alarm allows the low battery warning
chirp to be silenced until it is convenient to
replace the alarm (recommended within no
more than 30 days).
To enable the unit to interlink with other
alarms, this alarm can be fitted with a Smart
RF Module which operates on FireAngel’s
Wi-Safe 2 networking protocol.
IMPORTANT: This user manual contains
important information regarding the
operation of your smoke alarm. Ensure you
read this user manual fully before installing
and operating the alarm. If you are installing
this smoke alarm for use by others, you must
leave this manual with the end user.
AUTOMATIC POWER
ENGAGE
Your 10 year life smoke alarm is powered
by an internal lithium battery. To avoid
unnecessary use of the battery prior to
installation, and to ease disposal when
the alarm reaches the end of its life, the
alarm is supplied with the battery in a
deactivated state. The battery on this alarm
is automatically enabled when the alarm is
fully locked on to the base plate.
WARNING: Lithium batteries must not be
exposed to excessive heat.
IMPORTANT: Your alarm will not work until
it is correctly fitted to the base plate.
THERMOPTEK
TECHNOLOGY
Thermoptek alarms are “toast-proof”
meaning they can be positioned in areas
close to kitchens that may be affected by
cooking fumes. Heat alarms should be used
in kitchens where required.
This combines an optical sensing chamber
with thermal enhancement. The alarm is
effective at detecting slow burning fires, and
constant monitoring of temperature changes
enables the sensitivity of the alarm to be
instantly increased thereby quickening the
typical response time to fast flaming fires
significantly.
POSITIONING
WARNING: Your smoke alarm can be
installed into a new build property as
additional protection to an existing smoke
detection system only. It cannot be used
as a substitute for a hard wired system as
required in new build properties. In this
type of property the building regulations
require alarms to be interlinked. You can
obtain further information from your local
fire service or building control department
at your local council offices. These sources
generally provide advice on new builds or
projects that require planning permission.

Your smoke alarm typically meets the
minimum requirements for family living
units in existing buildings, as long as at least
one unit is installed on each floor/level of
your property.
In order to achieve the earliest fire warning,
we recommend that a smoke alarm is fitted
in all rooms where the temperature is
normally between 4°C (40°F) and 38°C
(100°F). Check the section on ‘Positioning’ to
ensure that the smoke alarm is to be correctly
positioned for the particular dwelling into
which it is intended to be installed.

MINIMUM RECOMMENDATIONS
RECOMMENDED FOR ADDITIONAL PROTECTION
NOTE: Kitchens should be covered by a self
contained heat detector.
For further information on where to install
your alarms refer to BS5839-6.

WARNING: The alarm positions shown
are based on typical homes. Construction
and layout of individual dwellings will
vary, so this should be regarded only as a
guide. Check with your local fire station for
additional guidance or, for further advice,
see standard BS5839-6.
Smoke alarms should be sited at least
300mm from light fi ttings and walls. Ideally
as central as possible in the room.
If positioning your smoke alarm on the
wall, the top of the detection element must
be between 150mm and 300mm below the
ceiling, and at least 300mm from a wall.
Smoke alarms should be positioned at no
more than 600mm vertically below the
highest point in the room.

Multi-family or mixed occupant
residence (Tenancy building, student
accommodation)
Your smoke alarm can also be used in
individual flats and bedsits, providing the
same conditions are met as for a singlefamily residence. However, there must
already be a primary fire detection system
that meets regulatory requirements for
common areas such as lobbies and hallways.
Institutions and Hotels
This includes motels, hospitals, day care
facilities, long-term health care facilities,
boarding houses and dormitories. Your
smoke alarm can be used in individual
sleeping/resident rooms, providing the same
conditions are met as for a single-family
residence. However, there must already be
a primary fire detection system that meets
regulatory requirements for common areas
such as lobbies and hallways. Use of this
smoke alarm in common areas may not
provide sufficient fire warning to residents or
meet regulatory requirements. This smoke
alarm is designed to operate as a standalone
smoke alarm.
WARNING: Without interlinking, this
smoke alarm will not communicate with
other smoke alarms. It is not intended as a
substitute for a complete alarm system.
Mobile Homes and Caravans
This smoke alarm is suitable for use in
mobile homes and caravans.
Commercial and Industrial Premises
This smoke alarm is not intended for any
non-residential, commercial or industrial
application, nor for any other purpose than
described above.
HOW TO INSTALL YOUR
SMOKE ALARM
