• A Smoke Alarm may not wake a person who has taken drugs
or alcohol.
• Certain types of fires may be difficult to detect in time
to provide sufficient early warning. Examples include;
fires caused by smoking in bed, gas leaks, explosions, poor
storage of flammable rags and/or liquids, for example, fuels,
paint, paint thinner, etc., overloaded electrical circuits, or
children playing with matches.
• Current studies have shown that Smoke Alarms may not
awaken all sleeping individuals. It is the responsibility
of individuals in the household who are capable of
assisting others, to provide assistance to those who may
not be awakened by the alarm sound, or to those who
may be incapable of safely escaping the area unassisted.
Limitations of Heat Alarms
There are various situations where a Heat Alarm may not be
effective:
• Fires where the victim is directly exposed to flame for
example; clothes catching fire while cooking.
• Fires where the heat is prevented from reaching the Heat
Alarm due to a closed door or other obstruction.
• Incendiary fires where the fire grows so rapidly that an
occupant's egress is blocked even with properly located
Heat Alarms.
5. Getting Your Alarm Serviced
If your Alarm fails to work after you have read the sections on
"Installation", "Testing and Maintenance", then contact Customer
Service at the address given at the end of this manual.
6. Five Year Warranty
Ei Electronics provides a warranty for this Alarm (excluding
the battery) for five years from the date of purchase against
any defects that are due to faulty materials or workmanship.
This warranty only applies to normal conditions of use and
service and does not include damage resulting from accident,
neglect, misuse, unauthorized dismantling, or contamination
howsoever caused. This warranty excludes incidental and
consequential damage. Further, the warranty does not cover
Acts of God, such as fire, flood, hurricanes, and tornadoes.
If this Alarm should become defective within the warranty
period, it must be returned to Ei Electronics, with proof of
purchase, carefully packaged, with the problem clearly stated.
We shall at our discretion repair or replace the faulty unit.
Ei Electronics shall not be liable for any incidental or
consequential damages caused by the breach of any express
or implied warranty. Any implied warranty of merchantability
or fitness for purposes is limited to the duration of the above
warranty period. This warranty gives you specific legal rights
and you may also have other rights that vary from state to state.
Some states or jurisdictions do not allow the limitation
or exclusion of incidental or consequential damages or
limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts so the above
limitation may not apply to you.
Do not interfere with the Alarm or attempt to tamper with it.
This will invalidate the warranty, but more importantly, may
expose the user to shock or fire hazards. This warranty is in
addition to your statutory rights as a consumer.
Ei Electronics makes no warranty, expressed or implied,
written, or oral, including that of merchantability or fitness for
any particular purpose, with respect to the battery.
The above warranty may not be altered except in writing
signed by both parties hereto.
