Tricolored LED (red, yellow, green) and a sounder on the detector provide
local visual and audible indication of the detector’s status as listed in Table 1.
During initial power-up the LED blinks alternately red, yellow then green.
It takes about 8 seconds for the detector to stabilize.
After power-up has completed and the detector is functioning normally, the
green LED blinks once every 12 seconds.
Detector Trouble: When the detector has a general fault, the yellow LED
blinks once every four seconds and there is a chirp every 48 seconds. After
12 hours the panel will display a loss of supervision message.
Detector Dirty Feature: When the detector has been contaminated, the
yellow LED blinks once every 8 seconds and there is a chirp every 48
seconds. Refer to MAINTENANCE section for cleaning your alarm. After
12 hours the panel will display a loss of supervision message.
Low Battery Detection: The Wireless Smoke Heat Alarm is powered by
3 AAA Duracell Procell or 3 AAA Energizer E92 batteries (included).
The detector regularly checks for a low battery. If a low battery is detected,
the transmitter sends a low battery message to the control panel, which
displays the detector’s ID at low battery. In addition, the yellow LED of the
detector will blink every 12 seconds. The detector’s sounder will chirp every
48 seconds (yellow LED continues to blink) until the batteries are replaced.
Pressing the hush button will silence the chirps for 12 hours, if no other
trouble conditions exist. The batteries should be replaced WHEN the chirps
begin. Be sure to replace the batteries with fresh ones.

RECOMMENDED LOCATIONS FOR SMOKE HEAT ALARM
According to National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) the major
threat from fire in a dwelling unit occurs at night when everyone is asleep.
The principal threat to persons in sleeping areas comes from fires in
the remainder of the unit; therefore, a smoke detector(s) is best located
between the bedroom areas and the rest of the unit. In units with only one
bedroom area on one floor, the smoke detector(s) should be located as
shown in Figure 2. In dwelling units with more than one bedroom area or
with bedrooms on more than one floor, more than one smoke detector is
required, as shown in Figure 3.
In addition to smoke detectors outside of the sleeping areas, the device
should be installed on each additional story of the dwelling unit, including
the basement. These installations are shown in Figure 4. The living area
smoke detector should be installed in the living room or near the stairway
to the upper level, or in both locations. The basement smoke detector
should be installed in close proximity to the stairway leading to the floor
above. Where installed on an open-joisted ceiling, the detector should
be placed on the bottom of the joists. The detector should be positioned
relative to the stairway so as to intercept smoke coming from a fire in the
basement before the smoke enters the stairway.
Smoke detectors are optional where a door is not provided between living
room and recreation room (Figure 5).
The smoke from a fire generally rises to the ceiling, spreads out across
the ceiling surface, and begins to bank down from the ceiling. The corner
where the ceiling and wall meet is an air space into which the smoke could
have difficulty penetrating. In most fires, this dead air space measures
about 0.1m (4in.) along the ceiling from the corner and about 0.1m (4in.)
down the wall. Detectors should not be placed in this dead air space, see
Figure 6,7 and 8.
THIS EQUIPMENT SHOULD BE INSTALLED IN ACCORDANCE WITH
THE NATIONAL FIRE PROTECTION ASSOCIATION’S STANDARD 72.
A detector that fails to activate with any of these tests should first be
cleaned as outlined in this manual’s MAINTENANCE section. If the detector
still fails to activate, return for repair.

Use the two screws and anchors provided. Maneuver the base so the
screws are at the elbow of the screw slots and secure.
2. Fit the detector inside the base by aligning it over the base as shown
(detector’s alignment notch should be slightly offset from mounting base
tamper release tab), then turn the detector in a clockwise direction until it
clicks into place.
3. Test the detector after completing the installation (as described in the
TESTING THE DETECTOR section of this manual) and refer to the control
system’s instructions for additional information concerning the use of wireless devices.

• Although smoke alarms can help save lives by providing an early warning
of a fire, they are not a substitute for an insurance policy. Home owners and
renters should have adequate insurance to protect their properties.
TESTING THE DETECTOR
FAMILY ESCAPE PLAN
NOTE: Before testing, notify the central station that the detector system is
undergoing maintenance in order to prevent unwanted alarms. Testing the
detector will activate an alarm and send a signal to the panel. Also, the test
function cannot be used if the detector has a trouble condition.
According to National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) there often is very
little time between the detection of a fire and the time it becomes deadly.
This interval can be as little as 1 or 2 minutes. Planning and practicing for
fire conditions with a focus on rapid exit from the residence are important.
Drills should be held so that all family members know the action to be
taken.
Detectors must be tested after installation and following periodic maintenance.
Testing Detector Operation
This test checks the detector’s sounder, LEDs, and transmitter.
1. The test button is located on the detector housing.
2. Push and hold the test button for a minimum of 5 seconds. The alarm
panel will trigger and then the detector will go into alarm. The sounder
begins the temporal 3 pattern and the red LED blinks. The alarm panel’s
console should display the detector’s name in alarm.
Fig 3. Location of the detectors in
dwelling units with more than one
bedroom area or with bedrooms on
more than one floor
• Smoke alarms cannot provide an alarm if smoke does not reach the
detector. Therefore, smoke alarms may not sense fires starting in chimneys,
walls, on roofs, on the other side of a closed door or on a different floor
• The use of alcohol or drugs may also impair one’s ability to hear the
smoke alarm. For maximum protection, a smoke alarm should be installed
in each sleeping area on every level of a home.
900 mm (3 ft)
Bedroom
• Smoke alarms must be tested regularly to make sure the batteries and the
alarm circuits are in good operating condition.
• Studies have shown that smoke and heat alarms may not awaken all
sleeping individuals, and that it is the responsibility of individuals in the
household that are capable of assisting others to provide assistance to
those who may not be awakened by the alarm sound or those who may be
incapable of safely evacuating the area unassisted.

Bedroom
WARNING: PLEASE READ CAREFULLY AND THOROUGHLY
• NFPA 72 states: Fire-warning equipment for residential occupancies are
capable of protecting about half of the occupants in potentially fatal fires.
Victims are often intimate with the fire, too old or too young, or physically or
mentally impaired such that they cannot escape even when warned early
enough that escape should be possible. For these people, other strategies
such as protection-in-place or assisted escape or rescue would be necessary.
• If the alarm is located outside the sleeping room or on a different floor, it
may not wake up a sound sleeper.
Fig 6. Example of proper mounting for detectors
- Directly above a sink, cooker, stove or oven
- Do not locate detector within 5 feet (1.5 m) of any cooking appliance
- Next to a door or window that would be affected by drafts i.e. extractor fan

and gently blow smoke through the detector until the unit alarms. Canned
smoke aerosol is also an acceptable method. Smoke detection testing is
SAFETY TIPS
• Make a home escape plan. Draw a map of your home showing all doors
and windows. Discuss the plan with everyone in your home.
• Know at least two ways out of every room, if possible. Make sure all doors
and windows leading outside open easily.
• Have an outside meeting place (like a tree, light pole or mailbox) a safe
distance from the home where everyone should meet.
• Practice your home fire drill at night and during the day with everyone in
your home, twice a year.
• Practice using different ways out.
• Teach children how to escape on their own in case you can’t help them.
• Close doors behind you as you leave.
