Locate your device

The most likely origin for an escape of gas in domes c premises is from gas appliances (such as gas cookers) themselves, the connec ons between them and the fixed gas distribu on system in buildings.

Where to install an detector?

• Ideally in every room containing a gas appliance. If this is not possible, install the detector in the room where gas escape is most likely to occur (usually the kitchen)
• Natural gas is lighter than air, so install the device above the level of a possible gas to escape and near the ceiling (< 0,3m from the ceiling)
• On a place where the bu ons on the detectors are easy to press

Where not to install an detector?

• Where air movement is impended by furniture and furnishings
• In an enclosed space (in a cupboard/behind a curtain)
• Directly above a sink
• Next to a door/window
• Next to an extractor fan
• In any outside loca on
• In an area where the temperature may drop below -10°C or exceed 40°C.
• Where dirt and dust may block the sensor
• In a damp or humid loca on
• Immediately above or next to gas appliances to prevent unwanted alarms

Mount & activate the alarm

1. Drill two holes in the wall of 5 mm and insert the plastic plugs
2. Attach the bracket to the plugs and fix the screws to the plugs
3. Place the alarm on the bracket and pull it down.
