Page 2: Smoke Alarm Limitations And Functions
Photoelectric. Universal Smoke Sensing Technology® is an ionization alarm containing patented Smart Alarm Technology. Alarms containing Universal Smoke Sensing Technology are effective at detecting fast flaming fires and slow smoldering fires. Ionization smoke alarms are typically more effective at detecting fast flaming fires—fires which consume combustible materials rapidly and spread quickly. -
Page 3: Recommended Location Of Alarms
RECOMMENDED LOCATION OF ALARMS • Locate the first smoke alarm in the immediate area of the bedrooms. Try to protect the escape route as the bedrooms are usually farthest from an exit. If more than one sleeping area exists, locate additional smoke alarms in each sleeping area. If a hall is more than 40 feet (12 meters) long, install a smoke alarm at each end. -
Page 4: Avoid These Locations
AVOID THESE LOCATIONS • the garage – products of combustion are produced when you start your vehicle. • near appliances or areas where normal combustion regularly occurs (kitchens, near furnaces, gas hot water heaters). Use smoke alarms with U.S.S.T. ® or photoelectric sensors, or smoke alarms with Silence Feature for these areas. -
