INTRODUCTION
The ST-750 multi-criteria high performance detector is the ultimate alternative to traditional alarms. 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 7 days).
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 power pack.To avoid unnecessary use of the power pack prior to installation, and to ease disposal when the alarm reaches the end of its life, the alarm is supplied with the power pack in a deactivated state.The power pack on this alarm is automatically enabled when the alarm is fully locked on to the base plate.
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 area 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.
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 further guidance.

MINIMUM RECOMMENDATIONS
RECOMMENDED FOR ADDITIONAL PROTECTION
NOTE: Kitchens should be covered by a self contained heat detector.
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.
