SMOKE ALARM - FIREX MODEL B
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
SMOKE ALARM SAFETY CHECKLIST
Before installing, using and maintaining your smoke alarm read the entire owners manual and warranty.
Keep it in a convenient place for reference.
1. Test your smoke alarm every week. To test the electronics, firmly depress the button. To test that smoke
reaches the sensor, blow smoke in a careful fire-safe manner into your smoke alarm.
2. Your smoke alarm will not work without power. Never shut off its power or remove the battery to quiet
the alarm.
FOR BATTERY-POWERED UNITS: When your smoke alarm "beeps" about once a minute, the battery is
weak. Immediately install a new battery correctly. Be sure to use only batteries specified in Owner's
Manual or on unit. Test unit after installing a new battery.
3. Clean and vacuum the openings on your smoke alarm once a month.
4. Do not open the smoke alarm or try to repair it. For replacement information see the WARRANTY in the
Owner's Manual.
5. Verify you have the proper number of smoke alarms in your home and the correct location for each one.
A smoke alarm will not respond well in an incorrect location.
6. If your smoke alarm has one or more of these special features, please note:
•
FALSE ALARM CONTROL (Model C): Pushing test/hush button reduces sensitivity for up to 15
minutes, minimizing nuisance alarms,
•
FLASHING LIGHT (Model E): Pushing test button turns flashing safety light on. Very thick
smoke may obscure light.
7. Smoke alarms have technical limitations and may not respond in all situations. FIRE PREVENTION is
your best safeguard.
8. For a replacement Owner's Manual or Safety Checklist, please indicate your unit model, include a self-
addressed stamped envelope and send to:
