Wireless Supervised Photoelectric
Smoke Detectors
Installation Instructions
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Smoke Detectors are battery-powered
photoelectric smoke detectors with a built-in supervised
wireless transmitter.
When sufficient smoke is detected or the test feature is
operated, the detector will sound its alarm horn and the
transmitter will send an ALARM message. If the alarm
condition remains, the message will be repeated 2 or
more times (with 65 second intervals). The Alarm
output in the receiver will remain activated until the
alarm condition is cleared.
The smoke alarm provides the following features:
Smoke Alarm/base lock discourages unauthorized
removal of the smoke alarm by requiring a screwdriver
to remove the alarm from the base.
CleanMe™ Self-diagnostics monitors its own
sensitivity and operational status. If the smoke alarms
drifts out of the sensitivity range or fails internal
diagnostics, it extinguishes its LED
Internal Signal Outputs
The smoke alarm provides the following signals for
interfacing:
•
Alarm
•
Alarm restore
•
Low battery
•
Maintenance alert (Visible only)
Selecting a Location
Selecting a suitable location is critical to the operation of
smoke alarms. This equipment should be installed in
accordance with the National Fire Protection Association’s
(NFPA) Standard 72. See Figure 2.
A-8-1.2.1.C Are More Smoke Alarms Desirable?
The required number of smoke alarms might not provide
reliable early warning protection for those areas separated
by a door from the areas protected by the required smoke
alarms. For this reason, it is recommended that the
householder consider the use of additional smoke alarms
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 alarms. The installation of
smoke alarms in kitchens, attics (finished or unfinished), or
garages is not normally recommended, as these locations
occasionally experience conditions that can result in
improper operation.
Important: Regulations pertaining to smoke alarm
installations vary from state to state. For more information,
contact your local fire department or local authority having
jurisdiction.
In addition to NFPA 72, use the following location
guidelines to optimize performance and reduce the
chance of false alarms from the alarm:
Locate ceiling-mounted smoke alarms in the center of a
room or hallway at least 4 inches from any walls or
partitions.
• Locate wall-mounted smoke alarms so the top of
the alarm is 4 to 12 inches below the ceiling.
•
Locate in a suitable environment as follows:
−
Temperature between 40ºF (4.4ºC) and
100ºF (37.8ºC))
−
Humidity between 0 and 95% noncondensing
• Locate away from air conditioners, heating
registers and any other ventilation source that may
interfere with smoke entering the alarm.
• Mount smoke alarms on a firm permanent surface.
• Locate away from large metallic objects when listed
with a transmitter.
Smoke Testing the Smoke Alarm
Smoke alarms should be tested in place annually
using smoke or canned aerosol simulated smoke.
Follow the instructions on the canned smoke or use
the following steps to test the alarm with smoke:
Installing the Alarm
1.
If you are using the alarm/base lock, remove the two
knockouts on the mounting base. See Figure 3.
2.
Slide the battery compartment cover away from the
alarm to unsnap it and lift it off. See Figure 4.
3.
Follow the write mode procedure as described in
the receiver installation of the operational manual.
4.
Observing proper polarity, insert two 3V lithium
batteries into the alarm battery compartment and
replace the battery compartment cover.
5.
Write message will be sent automatically
10 seconds after installing the batteries. ∗
6.
Remove the red plastic dust cover from the alarm.
The alarm is shipped with a dust cover for
protection on construction sites with dusty
environments.
7.
Using the two screws and anchors provided,
mount the base
8.
Attach the alarm to the mounting base as follows:
Line up the raised tab on the lip of the alarm
with the slot on lip of the mounting base. See
figure. 4
−
Insert the smoke alarm into the base and
turn clockwise approximately 15 degrees. It
should snap firmly into place.
Important: the alarm cannot be attached to the
mounting base if no batteries are installed.
−
9.
Test the alarm (see Smoke Testing the Alarm).
∗
To generate an additional right mode message, disconnect the
batteries for 30 seconds and then reconnect them.
1.
2.
Hold a smoldering punk or cotton wick close to the
smoke entry openings.
Gently direct the smoke into the alarm for 20
seconds or until an alarm is indicated.
BE SURE TO PROPERLY EXTINGUISH THE
SMOKE SOURCE AFTER TESTING! The alarm LED
should remain on and the alarm will sound a temporal
rhythm until the Test/Silence button is pressed. The
alarm automatically resets when smoke is no longer
present.
Understanding the Test/Silence
Button
The Test/Silence button on the alarm performs three
functions as follows:
Testing = Press the Test/Silence button for 2
seconds. The alarm performs a sounder test and a
sensitivity test.
Silence alarm = Press to silence the sounder during
an alarm. After a few minutes, the sounder and alarm
resume if smoke is still present.
Silence trouble chirp = Press to silence a trouble
chirp. The trouble chirp resumes after 24 hours if the
trouble condition is not corrected.
Testing the Alarm Sensitivity
The smoke alarm provides a sensitivity level test mode that allows you to check the smoke alarms sensitivity using the
Test/Silence button and the LED indicator on the alarm as follows:
1.
2.
Press the Test/Silence button on the smoke alarm for 2 seconds. Once the test starts, the alarm LED flashes one to
nine times.

Clean the unit and replace the smoke chamber.
After the flashes, if the sensitivity is within limits and all other tests pass, the alarm goes into alarm and resets
after 3 seconds.
If the sensitivity is not within limits, or an unserviceable hardware fault has been detected, the smoke alarm LED
extinguishes until the alarm is serviced.
Attaching and Removing the Smoke
Alarm
To remove the smoke alarm from the mounting base,
grasp the alarm and turn it counterclockwise approximately
15 degrees. The smoke alarm should snap off of the
mounting base.
To remove the alarm from the mounting base when the
alarm/base lock is used, insert a small screwdriver into
the locking tab slot on the side of the base and press in
while simultaneously turning the alarm counterclockwise 15
degrees. See Figure 5.
Attach the smoke alarm to its mounting base as
follows:
− Line up the raised tab on the lip of the smoke alarm
with slot on the lip of the mounting base. See Figure 4.
− Insert the smoke alarm into the base and turn
clockwise approximately 15 degrees. It should snap
firmly into place.
Understanding the LED
The LED on the alarm indicates the status of the
alarm as follows:
FLASHING = Flashes every 9 seconds to indicate
normal operation.
ON = Detects smoke.
OFF = Trouble or maintenance is required.
When to Replace the Batteries
The Smoke Detector requires two 3V lithium A
batteries as listed on the battery compartment cover.
The required batteries are available where other
batteries are sold.
Battery life is a minimum of 1 year and varies
depending on how often the alarm is tested. When
the batteries are low, the alarm extinguishes its LED
and chirps every 30 seconds until the batteries are
replaced. The sounder can be silenced for 24 hours
by pushing the Test/Silence button.
Replacing the Batteries
Use only 3V lithium A batteries as listed on the battery
compartment cover.
Remove the alarm from the mounting base. See
Attaching and Removing the Alarm.
Slide the battery compartment cover away from the
alarm to unsnap it and lift it off. See Figure 4.
Remove the batteries and dispose of properly.
Observing correct polarity, insert two new 3V lithium
batteries into the battery compartment and replace the
cover.
Reattach the alarm to the mounting base. See
Attaching and Removing the Alarm.
Test the alarm (see Smoke Testing the Alarm).
Cleaning the Smoke Chamber
Clean the alarm cover with a dry or damp (water) cloth
as needed to keep it free from dust and dirt
When necessary, clean the alarm interior and replace
the smoke chamber as follows:
Remove the chamber from its mounting base. See
Attaching and Removing the Alarm.

Attaching and Removing the Alarm.
Test the alarm sensitivity. (See Testing the Alarm
Sensitivity).
Maintaining the Alarm
The Smoke Detectors are designed for easy field
service and maintenance. When installed and used
properly, they require minimal maintenance.
The smoke alarm should be tested weekly. See Testing
the Alarm Sensitivity and Smoke Testing the Alarm.
When a Smoke Detector requires maintenance, it
extinguishes its LED and initiates the external signals
described in the following table.

Detector failed to power up on
self test. Perform a sensitivity
test. See Testing the Detector
Sensitivity. If the problem
persists, replace the detector.
Batteries in the detector are
low. Replace the batteries.
FIRE PREVENTION AND ESCAPE
The purpose of an early warning smoke alarm is to detect the presence of fire in its early stages and sound an alarm
giving the occupants time to exit the premises safely.
Avoid Fire Hazards
No detection device can protect life in all situations.
Therefore, safeguards should be taken to avoid
potentially dangerous situations as follows:
Do not smoke in bed
Do not leave children home alone
Never clean with flammable liquids such as gasoline.
Properly store materials, Use general good
housekeeping techniques to keep your home neat and
tidy. A cluttered basement, attic or other storage area is
an open invitation to fire.
Use combustible materials and electrical appliances
carefully and only for their intended uses. Do not
overload electrical outlets.
Do not store explosive and/or fast burning materials in
your home.
Even after proper precautions have been taken, fires
can start. Be prepared.
Be Prepared
Practice the following steps to prepare you and your
family in the event of a fire:
Perform fire drills regularly. Use them to assure
recognition of an alarm signal.
Draw a floor plan and show two exits from each room. It
is important that children be instructed carefully,
because they tend to hide in times of crises.
Establish one meeting place outside the home. Insist
that everyone meet there during an alarm. This will
eliminate the tragedy of someone reentering the house
for a missing member who is actually safe.
If you have children and/or physically challenged
people residing in your household, use window decals
to help emergency personnel identify the sleeping
quarters of these individuals.
In Case of Fire
In the event of a fire, you should do the following:
Leave immediately. Don't stop to pack or search for
valuables.
In heavy smoke, hold your breath and stay low crawl if
necessary. The clearest air is usually near the floor.
If you have to go through a closed door, carefully feel
the door and door knob to see if undue heat is present.
If they seem cool, brace your foot against the bottom of
the door with your hip against the door and one hand
against the top edge. Open it slightly. If a rush of hot air
is felt, slam the door quickly and latch it.
Unvented fire tends to build up considerable pressure.
Be sure all members of the household realizes and
understands this danger.
Use your neighbor's phone or a street fire alarm box to
call the fire department. The job of extinguishing the fire
should be left to the professionals.
WARNING!
Smoke alarms CANNOT provide warnings for fires
resulting from explosions, smoking in bed or other
furniture, ignition of flammable liquids, vapors and
gases, children playing with matches or lighters.

WARNING! LIMITATIONS OF
SMOKE ALARMS
Wireless smoke alarms are very reliable, but may not
work under all conditions. No fire alarm provides total
protection of life or property. Smoke alarms are not a
substitute for life insurance.
Smoke alarms require a source of power to work.
This smoke alarm will not operate and the alarm will not
sound if batteries are dead or not installed properly.
Smoke alarms may not be heard. A sound sleeper or
someone who has taken drugs or alcohol may not
awaken if the alarm is installed outside a bedroom.
Closed or partially closed doors and distance can block
sound. This alarm is not designed for the hearing
impaired.
Smoke alarms may not always activate and provide
warning early enough. Smoke alarms only activate
when enough smoke reaches the alarm. If a fire starts
in a chimney, wall, roof, on the other side of closed
doors, or on a different level of the property enough
smoke may not reach the alarm for it to alarm.
SMOKE ALARMS ARE A SIGNIFICANT HELP IN
REDUCING LOSS, INJURY AND EVEN DEATH.
HOWEVER, NO MATTER HOW GOOD A
DETECTION DEVICE IS, NOTHING WORKS
PERFECTLY UNDER EVERY CIRCUMSTANCE AND
WE MUST WARN YOU THAT YOU CANNOT
EXPECT A SMOKE ALARM TO ENSURE THAT YOU
WILL NEVER SUFFER ANY DAMAGE OR INJURY.
