CLEANING
The following operations must be performed
once per year. After removing the detector:
Clean the slots on the side of the side of
the detector using a vacuum cleaner and a
soft brush.
Clean the outside of the cover using a
damp cloth.
It is advisable to replace this detector after
5 years.
Cleaning your detector is essential
for your safety. If your detector is
positioned in a dirty area, you must
clean it more frequently in order to
ensure that it operates efficiently.

LIMITS OF USE
The smoke alarm detector is a device that
gives a rapid warning of any outbreak of fire
at a reasonable cost. However, residential
fires can break out in different ways and are
often unpredictable.
Yet it can fail to warn you of a fire if:
- The battery is low or the wrong type.
- The detector is not clean.
- It is mounted in the wrong place or the
smoke does not reach it.
- The operational test is not regularly done.
The DOFX helps save lives, but
does not exempt you from taking
out insurance to protect persons
and property.
Because of changes in standards and equipment, the characteristics given in the text and the illustrations

PRESENTATION
The DOFX wireless smoke detector is desi-
gned to detect the start of a slow burning
fire. The detection of smoke particles is indi-
cated by a radio message to the TYXAL
control unit which then triggers the alarm.
It is suitable for 24 hour per day surveillance
of private homes (house, apartments, mobi-
le home, caravan, etc.).
Any presence of smoke is indicated by the
flashing red LED and the sounding of the
audible alarm.
Whatever the state of the system (sur-
veillance On / Off), when smoke is detected:
- The CSX control unit emits warning beeps
(beep, beep, beep, etc. for 45 seconds if
the fault is no longer present, or 4 cycles of
45 seconds if the fault is continuous).
The fault will be indicated by the "alarm"
LED 1.
- A telephone call cycle is triggered.
It will indicate "fire alarm, press on star",
and your personal message.
- On a control keypad with display, "technical
detector" appears on the screen, followed
by its identity (to be personalized).
Note: The system siren does not sound
because it is a "technical alarm".

(wall, beam, etc.).
- more than 60 cm from any corner in the
room.
If this is not possible, mount the detector on
the wall at a distance of 15 to 25 cm from the
ceiling.
