Location of smoke alarms
Fit smoke alarms on each floor level in your home. Good places to•
fit alarms are where you can hear them throughout your home. For
example: -Top of the staircase - Stair landings - Between living and
sleeping areas etc.
For additional protection, fit a smoke alarm in each room – except in•
the kitchen/cooking area, bathrooms or garage – where smoke or
steam can set them of accidentally.
Always make sure that the sound of the smoke alarms can be heard•
in the bedrooms.
Additional smoke alarms could give earlier warning, and increase the•
chance of safe escape and rescue from a fire.

Silencer / Pause function (sensitivity reduction)
Placing the smoke alarm close to a kitchen, fireplace or other heat sources
can sometimes cause accidental triggering. In these cases the smoke
alarm can be temporarily turned off by pressing the test button. Thereafter,
the alarm will then automatically revert back to normal sensitivity. The red
LED will flash every 12 seconds to indicate that it is in pause mode and will
automatically revert back to normal operation after 10 minutes.
The low-battery warning is often activated at night and can be temporar-
ily paused for ten hours by pressing the test button. This allows you to
replace smoke alarm the next day or a more appropriate time.
Do not fit smoke alarms in the following locations:
Near the angle between the ceiling and walls where the air stands still and•
form a “dead air space” that prevents smoke from reaching the smoke alarm.
In kitchens, garages, or bathrooms or other high humidity areas,•
where combustion particles or moisture can cause nuisance alarms.
Near fresh air vents, fans or extractors. Draughts can blow smoke•
away from the alarm.
In areas where excessive dust or dirt could contaminate the sensing•
chamber, making it over sensitive or impairing smoke entry.
In areas where the ambient temperature is not controlled, and may drift•
below 5 C or above 40˚ ˚C. High humidity could cause nuisance alarms.
Within 1.5 m (60”) of a fluorescent or halogen light fitting, or LED-lamps,•
which emits electrical ‘noise’ that can prevent correct smoke alarm operation.
In insect infested areas. Insects can clog•
smoke openings and or cause nuisance
alarms.
Do not paint the smoke alarm.•

1. Remove the smoke alarm from its mounting
plate. The smoke alarm comes with its mounting plate
