Assembly
Application:
a) Remove the information sticker and the protective film from the
applied adhesive material (Fig. 3) of the magnetic holder.
b) Press the adhesive surface of the magnetic holder firmly onto the
mounting surface for approx. 10 seconds.
c) Remove the first protective film from the thin double-sided adhesive film
and press this firmly, smoothly and flush onto the entire metal surface of
the smoke alarm.
d) Now remove the second protective film from the thin double-sided
adhesive film and place the device onto the pre-mounted magnetic
holder while applying gentle pressure.
e) The adhesive bond will reach its ultimate strength after approx. 72 hours.
2. Drilled hole mounting
Application:
a) Using an 8-mm drill bit, drill a hole at the installation position
(take care not to strike any electric cables, etc.!)
b) Insert the 8-mm dowel into the hole.
c) Push the supplied 5-mm countersunk screw through the bottom of the
magnetic holder and into the perforated hole (Fig. 4).
d) Tighten the screw into the dowel so that the screw sits flush and is fully
sunk into the recess provided for it in the magnetic holder.
e) Only tighten the screw enough to prevent the magnetic holder from
deforming or bending.
f) Place the device on the magnetic holder.
g) If required, the device can be removed from
the magnetic holder by pulling it gently in
a vertical motion.

You should protect the device, particularly during renovation work but
also in general, from moisture, cold, heat, particulate matter, oil,
nicotine and paint fumes and from decorating materials such as wall
paint, adhesives and dirt of any kind.
During renovation, construction or sanding works, the smoke alarm
should be removed from the magnetic holder by gently pulling
downwards (III.) and stored in a safe place.
Do not forget to fit the smoke alarm back onto the magnetic holder (III.)
when the work is completed !
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Only when the device is situated in its intended mounting location, clean,
undamaged and activated, can it perform its potentially life-saving function of
warning against fire !
Testing, Maintenance and Pflege
This smoke alarm automatically tests its functional readiness once every
minute. It automatically adjusts the sensitivity of its detection optics
according to the prevailing environmental conditions. If the energy reserves of
the smoke alarm are depleted or the detection optics are so contaminated
that it can no longer adjust itself, the device indicates this situation in good
time so that you have enough time to replace the smoke alarm with a new
device !
You should ensure that the air inlets around the side of the smoke alarm
never become constricted by dust, dirt, paint or adhesive tape, etc. !
To check that the device is fully functional, you should regularly (at least once
per month) test the alarm. To do this, press the Test/Stop button (Fig. 1, IV) to
trigger a test alarm (Fig. 5).
