Flamingo FA22RF - Wireless Interlinked Smoke Detector Manual

HOW TO USE

WIRELESS INTERLINKED SMOKE DETECTOR

FA21RF is an optical smoke detector, which is combined with a transceiver unit. With the installation of more then one smoke detector, the communication is wireless. In case of smoke emission in one of the protected rooms ALL installed FA22RF smoke detectors are activated. A standard smoke detector that sounds alarm in the loft might not always be audible in the garage. This situation changes with FA22RF.

General:
Detects smoke under the ceiling through openings at the bottom of the detector. Pressing the test button will check the function of the detector. Testing the device using smoke is therefore not advisable or required. LED indicator: the LED will briefly illuminate approx. every 30 seconds, this is the measurement cycle. When the LED is flashing quickly smoke is being detected and in most cases an alarm will follow.

INSTALLATION TEST

MAKING A LARGE GROUP

If 20 seconds appear to be too short to login the required number of devices, you can make a smaller group first. You can expand this group by setting extra detectors to "slave". You can now press and hold the test button on any device from the existing group until all other detectors react to add the extra detectors to the group.

MAKING SEPARATE GROUPS

It is possible to make separate groups in one building.

First you have to clean the memory of each detector:

• Take out all batteries from the detectors and place them back after 3 minutes.
• Set each detector as slave (Repeatedly press LEARN button.( RED LED must be on) and press TEST button. Alarm will sound only from this one unit.

After creating the first group (see Installation Test), if you want to make a second group, wait at least 5 minutes and then repeat the same learning procedure for the new group. If you decide to change one detector from one group to the other, you have to learn this detector as slave only with the master from the second group. You can only change a slave detector from one group to the other.

Note: If there is an alarm in one group, as an indication the green LEDs will blink in the other group, but there will be no alarm sound.

TEST/MAINTENANCE

USE

The alarm is provided with a test button. Press this until the alarm signal sounds. The signal stops once the button is released. Test the alarm at least once per month, and certainly after replacing the battery or after cleaning, with a vacuum cleaner for example. The alarm must be vacuumed regularly to remove dust particles and to protect it as well as possible. The casing may not be opened during cleaning. If the alarm fails to operate correctly, the advice of the manufacturer should be sought.

BATTERIES

FALSE ALARM

• Some particles may have entered the optical sensor. Blow the sensor out (or use compressed air) and a vacuum cleaner regularly to keep it clean.
• Do not place the detector close to spotlights and/or other electronic devices.
• Use high-quality batteries (Do not use rechargeable batteries).
