Q10 smoke alarm device FMR 4467
By purchasing this device you have chosen a high-quality GEV
product. Please read through these operating instructions
carefully in order to ensure that the device functions correctly.
Keep these instructions in a safe place so that you can refer to
them later if necessary. Use this product only as intended (as
described in this user manual).
Do not alter, modify or paint the device, as this will render any
warranties null and void as well as reducing the function of the
smoke alarm device.
The Q10 smoke alarm device FMR 4467 is a photoelectronic smoke
alarm device used for early and reliable fire detection in private
residential buildings, apartments and rooms with similar purposes
in compliance with the statutory obligation to install smoke alarm
devices. Fires occur most frequently at night. The human sense
of smell is not active during sleep making it impossible to detect
smoke. Smoke alarm devices therefore act as an effective and
prompt safeguard against imminent danger. An alarm is triggered
as soon as smoke enters the device. The device does not detect
flames.
To keep maintenance and operating costs low, the Q10 smoke
alarm device FMR 4467 was designed with an integrated lithium
battery to enable an extremely long service life of ten years. There
is no need to change the battery. Once the ten-year battery life has
expired, the Q10 smoke alarm device FMR 4467 is simply replaced.
The alarm can be switched off for approx. 10 minutes by briefly
pressing the button (Fig. G1). This action switches the Q10 smoke
alarm device FMR 4467 to a less sensitive status. This status is
indicated by the red LED flashing approx. every ten seconds. If the
smoke is too dense, the alarm is triggered again.
Please note: To prevent the battery from posing a hazard, the
smoke alarm device must not be exposed to excessive heat. The
detector is equipped with an alarm memory. After the alarm has
been triggered, the green LED will blink 3 times every 43 seconds
and stop after 24 hours.
Installation position
For optimum protection of your home, install smoke alarm devices
in all rooms, corridors, basements and store rooms. Basic protection
can be achieved by installing smoke alarm devices in all bedrooms,
playrooms, corridors and escape routes on all floors (Fig. A).
Note:
• Mount the smoke alarm device in the centre of the ceiling.
• Smoke alarm devices should not be installed in bathrooms
(high humidity), garages
draughty environments (inc. ventilation inlets/outlets) or in ceiling
peaks within an attic (Fig. D).
• On roofs with a slope of ≤ 20°, the smoke alarm device can be
mounted in the centre of the ceiling in the same way as for
horizontal ceilings.
• For roofs with a slope of > 20°, the smoke alarm device must be
mounted at least 0.5 m and a maximum of 1 m away from the
peak of the ceiling (Fig. D).
• If the sloping sections of the roof have a roof angle of > 20°
and the horizontal ceiling is ≤ 1 m wide, the smoke alarm device
must be mounted on the slanted section at a minimum of 0.5 m
and a maximum of 1 m away from the peak of the ceiling
(Fig. D). However, if the horizontal ceiling is wider than 1 m, the
smoke alarm device can be mounted in the centre of the ceiling
(Fig. D1).
• Please maintain a distance of at least 50 cm from walls, ceiling
beams (joists), fittings and lights (Fig. B-C). If ceiling beams
(joists) are present, the following requirements apply:
Height ≤ 20 cm: Ceiling panels not taken into consideration.
Detector can also be fitted on the ceiling beam (joist).
Height > 20 cm and ceiling panel area > 36 m²: Install > 1 detector
per ceiling section.
Height > 20 cm and ceiling section ≤ 36 m²: Ceiling panels not
