month, and when you return after a lengthy absence such as a holiday.
Vacuum-clean above and around the smoke detector on a regular basis.
Important: the smoke detector must not be exposed to chemicals
or water. It must not be painted over or modified in any way.

OPErAtING MODE

In operating mode, the smoke detector emits no signals and does
not flash.

AlArM MODE

When the smoke detector detects smoke, it activates a continuous
sound and the red indicator light flashes. All paired devices will also
then emit the alarm sound, but their indicator lights do not flash.
resetting after a false alarm
All alarms should be taken seriously.
this means that evacuation should be the first action taken.
In the event of a suspected false alarm, find the smoke detector which
initiated the alarm. Do this by looking for the smoke detector with a
flashing red indicator light. Silence the alarm by pressing once on the
smoke detector to initiate hush mode. Then check the cause of the
false alarm, e.g. cooking fumes.
hUSh MODE
If you need to deactivate one of the smoke detectors temporarily,
press on it once for about 1 second. When you release the button you
will hear 1 beep. You can also hush temporarily in the event of a false
alarm. The smoke detector will then go into hush mode for 10 minutes.
After this, it will return to its normal operating mode. During hush
mode, if a fire starts near another paired smoke detector, the hushed
detector will also emit an alarm.
