Putting into operation
For recommended installation locations, see diagram ➋
• Position the wireless smoke detector directly on the ceiling in the centre of the
room.
• Priority rooms: living rooms, bedrooms and children's playrooms.
• If you have more than one bedroom, each one should be fitted with a wireless
smoke detector.
• To monitor corridors, you should also fit wireless smoke detectors there, because
stairwells are particularly susceptible to fires due to the chimney effect.
Long corridors might require several smoke detectors.
• When fitting on the ceiling, make sure that the smoke detectors are at least 15 cm
from the side walls and 50 cm from the corners.

Warning
Avoid the following locations to prevent malfunctions of the wireless
smoke detector:
• Places where expected temperature variations are greater than the
ambient operating temperature (+0 °C to +40 °C).
• Places where draughts can keep smoke away from the detector,
such as near windows, doors or ventilation shafts.
• Places where vapour, increased air humidity or exhaust fumes may
trigger false alarms, e.g. in kitchens, bathrooms or garages.
• Places where dust or dirt could impair the function of the smoke
detector.
• The highest point in rooms with gable ceilings. The distance to the
highest point of the gable should be at least 30 cm.
