The Smoke Alarms will be silenced for a period
of approximately 10 minutes. The red light on
the cover of the Smoke Alarm will flash every
8 seconds to indicate that the unit has been
silenced.
2. The Smoke Alarm will reset to normal
sensitivity at the end of the silenced period
(10 minutes). If additional silenced time is
required, simply push the Test/Silence button
again.
3. If kitchen usage/layout is such that there
are an unacceptable level of nuisance alarms,
re-locate the Smoke Alarm further away where
it will be less affected by cooking fumes etc.
We recommend the use of a Heat Alarm in the
Kitchen area to avoid such nuisance alarms.
