COMMISSIONING
First of all, remove any activation
safeguards (e.g. a cotter pin) and
make sure that the activation safe-
guard does not get into the device!
Then press the device's activation
button (Fig. 1, I.) which is shown in
the picture on page 15. After the
button has been pushed in, it must
be flush with the unit's housing. If
the smoke alarm has been activated
successfully, a brief test tone sounds
to confirm activation. This test tone
will also sound when you press the
test and stop button (Fig. 1, IV) to
verify that the unit is operating
correctly.

CHOOSING A LOCATION

As a minimum requirement
smoke alarms should be installed in all
bedrooms, children's rooms and
corridors that function as escape routes,
only in the middle of the ceiling (no
wall mounting).
Choose the highest point to install the
unit, ensuring that it is posi-
tioned at least 50 cm away from
RM surrounding walls, furniture and lamps.
To provide optimum protec-
tion for your home, install units in
RM
RM
all the other rooms and in the
stairwells. The unit is also suitable for
RM
use in the kitchen (the most com-
mon location for household fires).
In most cases, there is no need to
install a smoke alarm in washrooms
RM
(bathrooms, toilets, etc.) such rooms
Kitchen
represent a low fire risk.
Please observe the diagrams included in
these instructions.
RM

, the principles of optics (photoelectric

reflection) and contains a measuring
chamber in which penetrating smoke
particles are measured.
• If the alarm threshold is exceeded, a
loud, audible alarm will sound.
• The alarm will switch itself off as
soon as the measuring chamber
becomes smokefree again.
