Smoke alarms are designed to minimize nuisance alarms.
Combustion particles from cooking may set off the alarm if the alarm
is located close to the cooking area. Large quantities of combustible
particles are generated from spills or when grilling/frying. Using the
fan on a range hood that vents to outside (non-recirculating type)
will also help remove these combustible particles from the kitchen.
The alarm silence (test button) is extremely useful in a kitchen area
or other areas prone to nuisance. The hush feature is to be used only
when a known alarm condition, such as smoke from cooking
activates the alarm. The smoke alarm is desensitized by push the
alarm silence (hush mode) on the smoke alarm cover, if the smoke is
not too dense, the alarm will silence to indicate that the alarm is in a
temporarily desensitized condition. The smoke alarm will auto-
matically reset after approximately 10 minutes, if after this period,
particles of combustion are still present, the alarm will sound again.
The alarm silencer (hush mode) can be repeatedly until the air has
been cleared of the condition causing the alarm.
NOTE: Dense smoke will override the alarm silencer and sound a
continuous alarm, the unit goes back to normal work status from
hush mode
CAUTION: Before using the alarm silence (hush), identify the
source of the smoke and be certain a safe condition exists.
