Installation in the kitchen
Installing a self-contained smoke detector/alarm in a kitchen is not
recommended because of the significant risk of false alarms and dirt
quickly clogging up the detector. Self-contained smoke detector/alarms
must definitely not be installed in kitchens smaller than 9 m
Ensure a minimum distance of 2 metres (for a surface area of 9 m
minimum) from any appliance which produces smoke or steam. In order to
prevent nuisance alarms, use the override switch whenever you are using
an appliance which produces smoke or steam.
