tones, the unit will continue to
function for a maximum of 60 days
and needs to be replaced before this
60-day period has expired!
INSTALLATION
The RM 20 is hold in place by a
magnetic mount. This mount can
be fastened to the ceiling in two
different ways, as described below.
Please note that only one side of the
magnet can attract the unit
magnetically.

ADHESIVE MOUNTING

To mount the device using adhesion,
only the adhesive included with the
product may be used! The assembly
site must be fixed, dry and free of
grease, dust and loose paintwork
etc. As shown in (Fig. 3), remove the
information sticker and the protective
film from the applied adhesive and
press the magnet carrying frame to
the assembly position firmly for
approx. 10 seconds. Then you can
place the device on the magnet
carrying frame (Fig. 1, III.). The
adhesive bond will reach its ultimate
strength after approx. 72 hours.
DRILLING
Drill a hole into the installation
surface with a 8 mm drill bit and
insert the supplied 8 mm wall plug
into the hole. Guide the supplied
5 mm countersunk head screw through
the underside of the magnetic mount
(Fig. 4) pictured below so that the
screw with be flush with the
magnetic mount when it has been
screwed into the wall plug. Push the
screw through the drilled hole.
The screw must be fully screwed into
the recess provided on the magnetic
mount to ensure that the unit is held
securely. Take care not to fasten the
– 18 –
screw too tightly as this could
deform/distort the magnetic mount.

GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION

Although smoke alarms can help you
to detect a fire early on, they cannot
extinguish a fire, prevent a fire from
occurring or alarm the fire brigade.
In the event of fire fume-related risk,
smoke alarms emit a loud alarm tone
to warn you of this risk. Although the
utmost care is taken during the
manufacture of the smoke alarm,
a malfunction may occur and a unit
may not be able to warn you of a fire
in due time, or may not be able to
provide a warning at all. The standard
precautions for dealing with fire,
flammable materials and technical
devices must be observed at all times.
The unit is a closed system. Any form
of tampering with the unit's interior
will result in the loss of any existing
warranty and make it impossible for
the unit to be implemented in
accordance with its intended use.
Never open the unit as this can place
you at risk of injury.

Replacing the battery is not neces-
sary and is not technically possible.
Please protect the unit from the
following, particularly during
renovation work (but also in
general): moisture, cold, heat, fine
dust, grease vapours, nicotine and
paint fumes, adhesives, dirt and
coating materials such as wall paint.
In the event of renovation, construc-
tion or grinding work, detach the
smoke alarm from the magnetic
mount by gently pulling it in a
downwards direction and keep it in
a protected place. After the work
has been completed, remember to
replace the smoke alarm (by clicking
into place the magnetic mount.
