Thank you for purchasing a Kidde Fyrnetics alarm.
Please read through our guide in full.
Kidde Fyrnetics recommends for maximum protection that both ionisation and
photo-electric (optical) smoke alarms be installed. Ionisation technology is faster at
detecting fast flaming fires that give off little smoke. Photo-electric (optical) technology
is faster at responding to slow, smouldering smoky fires.
Heat alarms should be installed in environments where excessive steam, dust etc.
make smoke alarms impractical e.g. kitchens/boiler rooms/lofts.
Electrical rating 230V AC,
50Hz 80mA max per alarm
(maximum 80mA for originating unit
with 24 alarms interconnected).
*Kite mark is not applicable to Heat Alarms.
