Sayfayı YazdırAFTER INSTALLATION:
1. Check that the Red LED operating light flashes approximately every 45 seconds.
2. Press and hold the test button until the alarm sounds. Note: It may be necessary to press the test button
for up to 20 seconds for an alarm to sound. An alarm is indicated by a loud pulsating sound. An alarm
may continue to sound for up to 3 seconds after the button is released. Pressing the test button activates
the relay after 12 seconds.
N.B. The electronic test button provides a comprehensive test of the functionality of the unit. DO NOT
attempt to test using a naked flame, since this in itself could pose a potential fire hazard.
For interconnected units:
1. Test each alarm separately in the system.
2. Determine that the initiating alarm triggers other alarms.
REPLACEMENT OF SMOKE ALARMS AFTER 10 YEARS OF SERVICE
Smoke alarms contain electronic parts that may fail and components that can deteriorate over time. Therefore,
smoke alarms have a limited service life. See the year of replacement printed on the side of the alarm.
MAINTENANCE & TROUBLESHOOTING
TEST THE ALARM WEEKLY. VACUUM EVERY SIX MONTHS.
Your smoke alarm should be cleaned every six months to help keep the unit working efficiently. REMOVE POWER
TO ALARM. Gently vacuum through the vents of the alarm with a soft brush attachment. Keep vacuum nozzle
from touching the unit.
RE-ESTABLISH POWER TO ALARM.
Problems may be indicated by the following:
1. The alarm does not sound upon pressing the test button.
2. The alarm does not sound with the smoke test.
3. The RED operating light does not remain steadily on when unit is powered.
TRY THE FOLLOWING:
1. Ensure power supply is within the specified parameters and all fuses/circuit breakers are intact.
2. Gently vacuum as recommended above.
3. Call an electrician to inspect house wiring and connection to alarms.
If these procedures do not correct the problem, do NOT attempt repairs. If the smoke alarm is within warranty
period and terms, indicate the nature of the problem and return the unit with proof of purchase to the point of
purchase, distributor or manufacturer. See below for instructions. Units beyond warranty cannot be economically
repaired.
FALSE ALARMS:
Abnormal air conditions may cause the highly sensitive smoke alarm to give a "false" alarm. If no fire is apparent,
ventilate the room and/or blow fresh air into the unit until the alarm stops. Once cleared, the smoke alarm will
automatically reset.
DO NOT DISCONNECT THE DC POWER SUPPLY.
Dust can lead to excess sensitivity. Vacuum as recommended above.
DO NOT PAINT THE UNIT.
Smoke alarms contain electronic parts that may fail and components that can deteriorate over time. Therefore,
smoke alarms have a limited service life. In order to prolong the service life and to provide optimal performance,
smoke alarms should be tested and cleaned periodically. It is strongly recommended that smoke alarms be replaced
within 10 years of original installation.
CAPABILITIES AND LIMITATIONS OF SMOKE ALARMS
American Sensors Inc. smoke alarms are designed to provide early warning of fire and smoke at reasonable cost.
Early warning can mean the difference between a safe escape and no escape at all. While smoke alarms can
provide invaluable protection for you and your family, they do have limitations.
• Smoke alarms cannot work without power. Battery operated alarms will not work without proper batteries, with
dead batteries or if batteries are not properly installed. AC powered alarms will not work if their AC power supply
is cut off by an electrical fire, an open fuse, a circuit breaker or any other reason.
• Smoke alarms are incapable of sounding the alarm until smoke reaches the sensing chamber. Anything
preventing smoke from reaching the alarm may delay or prevent an alarm. A smoke alarm cannot detect fire in
the walls, chimney or roof unless and until a significant amount of smoke reaches the alarm. A closed door may
prevent smoke from reaching an alarm on the other side of the door. A smoke alarm may not sense a fire on
another floor of a home. For example, a basement smoke alarm may not detect a fire which started on the first or
second floor.
• Smoke alarms may not be heard. The loudness of the horn in your alarm meets current standards. However, the
sound may be blocked by distance, closed doors, or ambient noise such as traffic or a stereo. Smoke alarms may
not be heard by persons who are hard of hearing.
For these reasons, a smoke alarm should be installed in every room or at least on every level of your home.
American Sensors Inc. recommends that hardwire AC/DC Powered smoke alarms be interconnected, so that one
alarm will trigger all other alarms to sound.
• Smoke alarms are not fool-proof. Smoke alarms may not always sense every kind of fire. They cannot be
expected to sense fires caused by carelessness or by safety hazards. They may not give early warning of fast
growing fires caused by smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable
materials, overloaded electrical circuits, natural causes such as lightning, children playing with matches, or arson.
• Smoke alarms are not substitutes for property, disability, life or other insurance of any kind. Home owners and renters
should continue to insure their lives and property. Consult your insurance agent.
• Smoke alarms have limited lives. Your smoke alarm should be replaced if it is ten years old. One or more of
the many components could fail at any time. Therefore, test your smoke alarm weekly. Clean and take care of
it as described in this manual. Repair or replace the smoke alarm when it fails to test properly.
Ionization Technology vs.
Photoelectric Technology
Smoke Alarms
There are two different types of smoke alarm technology currently in general use: Ionization and
photoelectric. While both types of technology are suitable for general residential use, an ionization
alarm will normally respond faster to fast flaming fires, while a photoelectric alarm may be more
sensitive to detecting slow smouldering fires. Because home fires develop in different ways and are
often unpredictable in their growth, it is impossible to predict which type of alarm will provide the
earliest warning. For best home protection install at least one photoelectric and one ionization smoke
alarm on each level of your home. A photoelectric smoke alarm senses smoke using an electronic
photo receptor to sense the scattering of light by smoke particles.
SAFETY TIPS
Properly installed and maintained smoke alarms are an essential part of a good home fire safety program. Your
fire safety program should also include a review of fire hazards and the elimination of dangerous conditions
whenever possible. Consider the following tips:
• Use smoking materials properly. Never smoke in bed.
• Keep matches and cigarette lighters away from children.
• Store flammable materials in proper containers. Never use them near an open flame or sparks.
• Keep electrical appliances in good condition. Do not overload electrical circuits.
• Keep stoves, fireplaces, chimneys, and barbecue grills grease free. Make sure they are properly installed and
away from any combustible materials.
• Keep portable heaters and open flames such as candles away from combustible material.
• Do not allow rubbish to accumulate.
• Keep a supply of extra batteries on hand for your battery powered smoke alarms.
• Do not stand too close to the alarm when the unit is in alarm as the loud horn could damage your hearing.
Never disconnect the battery or the DC power on any type of smoke alarm to silence a
WARNING
nuisance alarm. Clear the area of smoke by opening doors and windows or fanning the
!
smoke away.
Most important, when fire strikes, a prepared and practiced escape plan can make the difference between life and
death. Develop an escape plan and practice it with the entire family, including small children.
• Ensure all family members are familiarized with the alarm signal.
• Prepare an escape plan. Draw a Floor Plan of Your Home and determine two exits from each room. There
should be a way to get out of each bedroom without opening the door.
• Have Fire Drills Often. Practice your Escape and BE PREPARED.
• Decide on a meeting place at a safe distance from your home.
IN CASE OF FIRE
• Don't waste time collecting possessions after a fire starts.
• Arouse all occupants and leave the building. Your most valuable possession is your life.
• Doors can mean escape or death. Never open doors without first checking for heat. Test them with your hands, if
they feel warm, fire may be walled up behind them - leave closed and find another escape route.
• Call the fire department from OUTSIDE the building.
• If trapped inside, stay close to the floor, cover mouth with cloth, conserve breath as you crawl to safety.
• Keep all doors and windows closed except for escape purposes.
• NEVER re-enter a burning building.
• Keep your family in a pre-arranged meeting place after your escape.
Your local fire department may be able to offer you additional ideas for safety and escape plans in the home.
