IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

1.
This smoke alarm requires constant 220-240V AC 50Hz
mains power supply to operate properly. Backup 9V DC
battery will offer additional protection in the event of power
failure. This smoke alarm WILL NOT work if AC power is
not connected ir has failed or been interrupted for any
reason. AND if the backup battery is removed, drained or
improperly connected, the alarm will not work during a
power failure. DO NOT use any other kind of battery except
as specified.
2.
The Push-to-test button accurately tests all smoke alarm
functions. Do not use any other test method. Test smoke
alarm weekly to ensure proper operation.
3.
DO NOT cut off AC power supply or remove or disconnect
backup battery to quiet unwanted alarms. This will remove
your protection. Open windows or fan the air around smoke
alarm to silence it.
4.
Observe and follow all local and national electrical and
building codes for installation.
5.
This smoke alarm is designed to be used inside a single room
only. In multi-room buildings, each individual living unit
should have its own smoke alarm. Do not install in non-
residential buildings. And this smoke alarm is not a
substitute for a complete alarm system.
6.
Smoke may not reach the smoke alarm for many reasons.
For example, if a fire starts in a remote part of the home,
on another level, in a chimney, wall, roof, or the other side
of a closed door, smoke may not reach the smoke alarm
in time to alert household members. A smoke alarm will not
promptly detect a fire except in the area or room in which
it is installed.
7.
Smoke alarms may not alert every household member every
time. The alarm horn is loud in order to alert individuals
to a potential danger. However, there may be limiting
circumtances where a household member may not hear the
alarm (i.e. outdoor or indoor noise, sound sleepers, drug or
alcohol usage, the hard of hearing, etc.). If you suspect that
