NOTE: DENSE SMOKE WILL OVERRIDE THE HUSH CONTROL FEATURE AND
SOUND A CONTINUOUS ALARM.
CAUTION: BEFORE USING THE ALARM HUSH FEATURE, IDENTIFY THE
SOURCE OF THE SMOKE AND BE CERTAIN A SAFE CONDITION EXISTS.
SAFETY LIGHT: The model i12080 has a Safety Light feature. When the smoke
alarm ionization chamber senses smoke, the 85 db horn will sound and the
Safety Light will illuminate until the sensing chamber is cleared of smoke parti-
cles.
NOTE: THE SAFETY LIGHT IS NOT INTENDED TO SATISFY THE REQUIRE-
MENTS FOR APPROVED ILLUMINATION UNDER VARIOUS LOCAL CODES.
VERY THICK AND/OR DENSE SMOKE MAY OBSCURE THE LIGHT.
LED INDICATORS: This smoke alarm is equipped with red and green LED indica-
tors. The green LED (when illuminated) indicates the presence of AC power. The
red LED ( located under the Test / Hush button) has four modes of operation:
Standby Condition: The red LED will flash every 30-40 seconds to indicate
Alarm Condition:
Alarm Memory:
that the smoke alarm is operating properly.
When the alarm senses products of combustion and
goes into alarm, the red LED will flash one flash per
second. The flashing LED and pulsating alarm will
continue until the air is cleared.
WHEN UNITS ARE INTERCONNECTED, only the red LED
of the alarm which senses the smoke or is being tested
(the originating unit) will flash. All other units in the
interconnect system will sound an alarm but their red
LED's will NOT be flashing.
This smoke alarm is equipped with an alarm memory,
which provides a visual indication when an alarm has
been activated. The red LED will illuminate for about 1.5
seconds every 16 seconds to indicate the memory
condition. The memory will remain activated until pushing
the test button resets it. On the The i12040 and i12080
the memory will also reset if the battery voltage gets
low, in order to save battery backup power. In an
interconnected installation only the memory of the
originating alarm will be activated.
