mark all desired screw locations. Use the supplied wall anchors for

all screw locations. When the anchors have been placed, secure

plate's locking tab with the lock recess on the case and turn the unit

clockwise until it is firmly secured.

entry, only while the unit is not in service.

CAUTION: The smoke detector will not function with the dust

cover in place.

Installer's Maintenance Instructions

If the unit is mounted in a high dust environment, the inlet areas of

the case may be vacuumed with a soft brush attachment.

Be sure to inform the user and their monitoring station when

maintenance of any sort is performed on the smoke alarm or any

part of the alarm control system. Always test smoke alarms after

maintenance. If a smoke alarm continues to generate nuisance

alarms even after vacuuming, return the unit to DSC for service.

Contact DSC at the address and number below to obtain a return

authorisation number before returning the unit.

smoke alarms, connected to it. The user should be provided with

all Instruction Sheets and Manuals for their system and any

components connected to it. Complete and thorough instruction

for the user is essential to ensure they will obtain the greatest

benefit from their system.

Smoke detectors that are a part of this system may not properly alert occupants of a

f ire for a number of reasons, some of which follow. The smoke detectors may have

been improperly installed or positioned. Smoke may not be able to reach the smoke

detectors, such as when the fire is in a chimney, walls or roofs, or on the other side of

closed doors. Smoke detectors may not detect smoke from fires on another level of the

residence or building.

Every f ire is different in the amount of smoke produced and the rate of burning. Smoke

detectors cannot sense all types of fires equally well. Smoke detectors may not provide

timely warning of fires caused by carelessness or safety hazards such as smoking in

bed, violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, over-

loaded electrical circuits, children playing with matches or arson.

Even if the smoke detector operates as intended, there may be circumstances when

there is insuff icient warning to allow all occupants to escape in time to avoid in-

jury or death.

Warning: Digital Security Controls Ltd. recommends that the entire system be

completely tested on a regular basis. However, despite frequent testing, and due to, but

not limited to, criminal tampering or electrical disruption, it is possible for this product

to fail to perform as expected.
