Assembly location
–
The smoke detector must be mounted
on the ceiling with a minimum distance
of 66 cm from the nearest corner or wall.
–
The smoke detector must be positioned
at least 30 cm from any junction box
and at least 150 cm from fluorescent
lamps.
–
Install at least two smoke detectors,
one per floor and (for additional safety) one in each room.
–
Do not install the smoke detectors in any area susceptible to draughts
(e.g. near air–conditioners or ventilators).
–
Do not install the detectors in rooms with high humidity (shower rooms, baths,
kitchens or laundry rooms), rooms with large temperature fluctuations (over 40°C
or under –5°C) or where the detectors can be contaminated by vehicle exhaust
gases, dust and dirt (garage, furnace room, etc.) → in these cases use a heat detector.
–
Do not install the detector in the top of a roof, because clear air can collect there in
the event of fire.
–
Install smoke detectors along the escape routes for additional safety.
–
Ensure that the smoke detectors are easily accessible for testing and repair purposes.
