Product description and intended use
This is a smoke alarm (delivered with fixed installed battery) with an optical sensor for installation
in residential buildings, apartments and rooms with residential like use. Smoke alarms are
designed to provide an early warning of fire smoke and fires to persons present, so that these
persons can react appropriately to the hazardous event.
Caution: Always observe local regulations for smoke alarms.
Activate and test
Before using the smoke alarm, it is important to activate and test the product for proper function.
Place the smoke alarm on the mounting plate (checklines in position e) and turn it clockwise until you
feel a click (to position f)! Wait around 8 seconds to hear a first beep. Then perform a functional test.
Functional test
Test the device by pressing and holding the test/silence button for approx. 3 seconds. If the unit is
working properly, it will beep 3 times and flash red 3 times. This is enough for a reliable test.
Caution: If this is not the case, do not use the smoke alarm! Contact the supplier.
NOTE: The test signal volume is lower than the alarm signal volume. If you want to hear the volume of
the alarm signal, keep on pressing the button without release, you will hear three sequences of 3 low
beeps (<85dB) + pause, and from the fourth sequence you will hear sequences of 3 high beeps
(>85dB)+ pause.
(First 3 rounds are low, start from 4th round become high >85dB).
Where to install a smoke alarm
Smoke alarms must be installed in such a way that they can be reached unhindered by the fire smoke
so that fires can be reliably detected during the development phase. The number and arrangement
depend on the room geometry (room arrangement, floor area, height, ceiling shapes, etc.) and
the ambient conditions. The local legal regulations must be observed. Larger rooms (> 40 m²) or
special room geometries and environmental conditions require the use of several smoke alarms per
room.
