Creating single groups
Single groups can also be created in a house. For this purpose, it is first necessary
to delete the memory of each smoke detector.
–
Remove all batteries from the smoke detectors and re-insert after 3 minutes.
–
Register each detector as a "slave", repeatedly press the LEARN–button (D)
(the red LED must light up) and press the TEST–button (C). This will only trigger
the alarm on this unit.
If, after creating the first group (refer to the installation test) you want to create a second
group, wait at least 5 minutes and then perform the same learning process for the new
group. If a detector is to be added to the other group, then this detector can only be set
up as a new "slave" to the "master" of the group. Only "slave" detectors can be swapped
within the group.
Note: If an alarm is triggered in one group, the green LEDs in the other group will
flash (as a display) — but no alarm signal will sound.
Maintenance test
–
Test your smoke detectors at least once a month by pressing the test button (C);
all the devices will sound the alarm.
–
Blow the sensors with a commercially available compressed air spray at least once
every 6 months to remove dust and dirt.
Battery
The detector works with one 9V block battery and three 1.5V AA batteries. The 9V block
battery is responsible for the signaling and the three AA batteries are needed to link the
smoke detectors. Under normal circumstances, the batteries will run for about 1 year.
The low battery indicator will emit a short warning signal. Replace all the batteries of
the affected detector simultaneously.
False alarm
–
Foreign particles can block the optical sensor. Blow them free using a compressed
air spray.
–
Do not install the detectors too close to light fixtures and/or other electronic devices.
–
Use high-quality batteries — not rechargeable batteries.
