6. Test function:
After installation, and at least once per quarter, test all of your alarms to ensure
they are operating correctly and are within range of each other.
It is recommended to check visually every week if the LED flashes correctly
(every 48sec.)
Press the test button on any alarm for at least 6.5 seconds (count 2 sets of
3 sound sweeps). This will send out a test signal from the alarm; all other
connected alarms should receive the signal within a short time. The alarms will
emit a short beep and the LED will flash every 8 seconds for 2 minutes.

When the test signal is sent out, the alarms will respond in two ways:
1. A single beep every 8 seconds indicates that the alarms are connected
and functioning.
2. Three short beeps every 8 seconds indicates a heat sensor fault.
The alarm should be cleaned by running the vacuum (on a low setting)
around the heat alarm chamber and tested again.
Once the alarms have indicated they are interconnected; the beeps can be
stopped on each alarm with a short press of the test button.
TIP: It is safe to cover the sound output hole with your finger during the
testing to minimise the sound level emitted.
