IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

• The smoke alarm device is battery-powered. It will not work without battery, or if

the battery is dead, removed or not correctly connected. Use only the speciﬁed

type of battery. DO NOT connect the smoke alarm device to any type of detector

or equipment other than what is stated in this manual.

• The test button provides a full test of all the smoke alarm’s functions. No other test

methods are required. Test smoke alarm devices every week to check that they are

working properly.

• Do not remove or disconnect the battery to stop false alarms, as this will cause the

smoke alarm to lose important functionality. Open a window or ventilate the air

around the smoke alarm device to stop the alarm and/or press the pause button.

• The smoke alarm device must be installed in line with all local and national rules

and regulations on installation.

• The smoke alarm device is intended for use in houses. In apartment blocks, each

apartment should be ﬁtted with its own smoke alarm device. This smoke alarm

device is not suitable for use in non-residential buildings. The smoke alarm device is

not a replacement for a complete alarm system as required under law or by the ﬁre

safety authorities.

• There may be reasons why a person in a household might not hear the alarm (e.g.

noise, deep sleep, impaired hearing). If you suspect that a person in the household

will not react to the smoke alarm device, specialist alarms should be installed.

• The smoke alarm device detects combustion particles (smoke) in the air. It does not

react to ﬂames or gas. The smoke alarm device is designed to give o an audible

alarm if a ﬁre is developing.

• No smoke alarm devices are entirely reliable and they cannot give a 100%

guarantee to protect life and property against ﬁre. The smoke alarm device is no

replacement for insurance. Homeowners and tenants should take out life and home

insurance.

The smoke alarm device should be tested regularly and replaced

DUST COVER INCLUDED

If you have built, renovated or extended a house, the ﬁre alarm should be installed

after the ﬁnal cleaning. The dust cover should be removed by the occupants after

they have moved in to avoid unnecessary dust/particles in the ﬁre alarm.

POSITIONING THE SMOKE ALARM DEVICE

In order to give an early warning, the smoke alarm needs to be installed where

the ﬁre occurs. Housegard therefore recommends that you install a smoke alarm

device in every room and on every ﬂoor.

• Install a smoke alarm device in all separate bedrooms and in rooms

commonly occupied.

• In homes with several storeys, a smoke alarm device should be installed at

the top of every staircase between each storey.

• In the basement, a smoke alarm device should be installed in the ceiling at

the foot of the stairs.

• In bedrooms where people sleep with closed doors, there should always be

a smoke alarm ﬁtted in the bedroom.

• Install a smoke alarm device in every room where there is a potential risk

of ﬁre.

OPERATION

Normal Mode

In standby condition the TEST/HUSH indicator ﬂashes every 344 seconds to

indicate that the smoke alarm is operating properly. The smoke alarm detects

smoke every 10 seconds. When it senses smoke, the alarm sounds and the TEST/

HUSH indicator ﬂashes red at the same time, until the air is clear.

Pause mode (Low sensitivity)

The smoke alarm is desensitized by pushing the TEST/HUSH button. The alarm

indicator ﬂashes every 10 seconds and no audible sound will be heard during 9

minutes, unless smoke becomes denser. If the smoke becomes denser, the alarm

will override the pause mode. The pause mode will end automatically after 9

minutes or by pressing the TEST/HUSH button again.

Low battery warning

The low battery warning will indicate when the voltage is too low, the smoke

alarm will then make short beeps every 43 seconds.

Test mode

By pressing the TEST button the smoke alarm will enter alarm mode. The unit will

make beeps every 0,5 second and the TEST/HUSH indicator will ﬂash red.

Alarm Memory

This smoke alarm is equipped with an alarm memory, which provides a visual

indication when an alarm has been activated. When the TEST/HUSH button

indicator ﬂashes green 3 times every 43 seconds, that means alarm has been

made during the last 24 hours. Please check if there is ﬁre risk in detection

area. This indication will end after 24 hours or when pushing Test/Hush button.

First time you press test/mute button after alarm is made, the smoke alarm will

indicate by special alarm mode.

End of life mode

The time and working environment will cause the degeneration of smoke

chamber. When the product makes 3 short beeps every 43 seconds, it indicates

end-of-unit-life. You should replace the smoke alarm with a new one.

CAUSES AND REMEDIES FOR FALSE ALARMS

A smoke alarm device detects and reacts to smoke particles in the air. The smoke

particles set o the smoke alarm device. This function means that the smoke alarm

device will also react to dust particles, moisture or other particles in the form of

pollen, insects etc. These factors are usually the cause of a false alarm.

CAUSE OF ERROR ACTION

Steam and moisture. A false alarm

may occur if the smoke alarm device

is placed too close to a bathroom,

laundry room, or other location with

high air humidity.

Place the smoke alarm device at least

3 metres from any bathroom, laundry

room, or other location where high air

humidity may occur.

Dust and dirt. Since air passes freely

through the detection chamber, the

smoke alarm device will always attract

some dust and pollen particles. This

can lead to a false alarm. The smoke

alarm device may also become more

sensitive for this reason, which could

cause false alarms. In addition, dirt will

collect over time, as the smoke alarm

device ages, which may result in false

alarms.

Regularly vacuum the smoke alarm

device, using a plastic nozzle to avoid

damaging the electronics. Avoid

ﬁtting smoke alarm devices in places

with a lot of dust and dirt. You can put

a ‘hat’ over the smoke alarm device

or remove it entirely while you are

carrying out renovation work at home

that involves sawing, sanding, etc.

20

Draughts, dust and air ﬂows. False

alarms may be caused by the smoke

alarm device being placed too close to

doors, windows, ventilation systems,

fans, air ducts, heat pumps or suchlike.

This can lead to dust particles being

carried up into the detection chamber.

Do not install smoke alarm devices in

a draughty location, close to windows

or doors, ventilation, fans, air ducts,

heat pumps or suchlike. Find a better

location for the smoke alarm device,

further away from draughts and air

ﬂows.

Temperature variations. Temperature

variations may lead to condensation

in the detection chamber. This may

happen, for example, if the smoke

alarm device is placed in a room

where windows are opened for ven-

tilation in the winter, or close to exits,

balcony doors or other places that

switch between hot and cold.

Avoid ﬁtting smoke alarm devices

in rooms with rapid temperature

changes or close to windows and

doors that are frequently opened and

closed. Move the smoke alarm device

to a place with a more even and stable

temperature.

Generally unfavourable positions.

Incorrect positioning in an unstable

indoor environment, a draughty area,

close to electronic apparatus (EMC)

and lighting may cause a false alarm.

Place smoke alarm devices at least

6 metres from open ﬁres, stoves or

other heating devices; 2 metres from

ventilation ducts, heat pumps and

air conditioning; 1,5 metres from light

bulbs and ﬂuorescent tubes.
