D. Test your alarm
In addition to certification according to NEN standards by TÜV, the detector has been tested in
a specially designed room in the factory. You can test the detector yourself by pressing the test
button (= center front of the detector), after which the 85 dB alarm sounds. If there is no sound
from the connected detectors, repeat the interlinking-process as described in chapter C.
CAUTION
DO NOT test your detector using an open flame. This may damage the detector or ignite
combustible materials and start a structural fire.
DO NOT stand close to the detector when the alarm is sounding. Exposure at close range
may be harmful to your ears.
Test the detector at least once a month.
E. Silence mode
Silence mode should only be used if the source of the alarm is known and safe. Press the test
button (= centre front of detector) to set the silence mode. During silence mode, the red LED
flashes once every 8 seconds. The detector is automatically reset after 10 minutes.
CAUTION
Before using the silence mode, identify the source
of the smoke and be certain a safe condition exists.
F. Mount the detector
Determine correct mounting location
Check figure 3, 4 and 5 for correct mounting
locations. Most EU countries require smoke
detectors on all floors and escape routes.
Smoke spreads horizontally after rising to the
ceiling, so install the detector in middle of the
ceiling.
If the length of the room or the hall is beyond 10
meters, you need to install multiple alarms.
