Alarm will return to normal operation.

(Note: this does not reduce the users

fire protection, as a Smoke Alarm in

continuous alarm due to a fault, is useless

and must be silenced – by taking the

Alarm down or as described here. This

procedure has the added benefits that

the user is reminded every 10 minutes by

two short beeps that the Alarm needs to

be replaced and that if the problem clears

the Alarm will return to detecting fire).

1.2.3. Faulty smoke chamber

In the unlikely event of the smoke sensing

chamber becoming defective, the Alarm

will give 2 short beeps with 2 yellow LED

flashes every 48 seconds. The Alarm must

then be replaced.

If it is not convenient to replace it

immediately, pressing the test button will

silence the beeps and stop the yellow

LED flashing for 12 hours. This can be

repeated as required.

2. Location and Positioning

Introduction

Congratulations on purchasing a Smoke

Alarm. You can easily install these Alarms

throughout the property on escape

routes, on each storey, in corridors and in

closed rooms to give warning of fire.

Heat Alarms can be installed in kitchens

and other areas where Smoke Alarms are

unsuitable.

NATIONAL

ASSOCIATION REQUIRED PROTECTION

applicable laws, codes, or standards

for the specified occupancy, approved

single- and multiple-station Smoke Alarms

shall be installed as follows:

(1) In all sleeping rooms and guest rooms

unit sleeping area within 6.4 m (21 ft) of

measured along a path of travel

Are More Smoke Alarms Desirable? The

required number of smoke detectors

might not provide reliable early warning

protection for those areas separated by

PROTECTION

a door from the areas protected by the

required smoke detectors. For this reason,

it is recommended that the householder

consider the use of additional smoke

detectors for those areas for increased

protection. The additional areas include

the basement, bedrooms, dining room,

furnace room, utility room, and hallways

not protected by the required smoke

detectors. The installation of smoke

detectors in kitchens, attics (finished or

unfinished), or garages is not normally

recommended,

occasionally experience conditions that

can result in improper operation.

The equipment should be wired and

installed in accordance with National

Fire Protection Association's Standard

72, Chapter 11 and National Electric

Code, NFPA 70, Chapter 3. (National

Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch

Park, Quincy, MA 02269).

For Canadian installations wiring methods

shall be in accordance with CSA C22.1,

Canadian Electrical Code, Part I, Safety

Standard

for

Testing and maintenance procedures shall

be in accordance with CAN/ULC-S552,

Standard for the Maintenance and Testing

of Smoke-Alarms.

IMPORTANT!

Specific requirements for Smoke Alarm

installation vary from state to state

and from region to region. Check with

your local Fire Department for current

requirements in your area.

SMOKE ALARMS

Sufficient smoke must enter your Smoke

Alarm before it will respond. Your Smoke

Alarm needs to be within 6.4 metres (21ft)

of the fire to respond quickly. Smoke

Alarms also need to be in positions

where they can be heard throughout the

property, so they can wake you and your

family in time for everyone to escape.

A single Smoke Alarm will give some

protection if it is properly installed, but

most homes will require two or more

(preferably interconnected) to ensure that

a reliable early warning is given. For

recommended protection you should put

individual Smoke Alarms in all rooms

where fire is most likely to break out (apart

from the kitchen and bathroom).

Your first Smoke Alarm should be located

between the sleeping area and the most

likely sources of fire (living room for

example), but it should not be more than

6.4 metres (21ft)from the door to any

these
