Do Not Install Smoke Alarms In The Following Places - ELRO FS201011 Bedienungsanleitung

Do not install smoke alarms in the following places

•
Near appliances or areas where normal combustion occurs on a regular basis think
of the kitchen, near an oven, kettle.
•
In areas with high humidity, such as bathrooms or areas near dishwashers or
washing machines. Install the smoke detector at least 3 meters away from these
areas.
•
Near air vents or heating and cooling vents. Install at least 3 feet away from these
areas. Air can blow smoke away from the detector and interrupt the alarm.
•
In areas where the temperature may fall below 0℃ or rise above 40℃, or with
humidity higher than 93%. These conditions will shorten the battery life or cause
false alarm.
•
In extremely dusty, dirty or insect-infested areas, impacted particles may interfere
with the operation of the smoke detector.
What is the best location
•
Initially, you should install an alarm on the landing or stairwell and in the
bedroom. In the case of multiple bedrooms, you should install an alarm in each
bedroom.
•
Smoke, heat and combustion particles spread horizontally after they rise to the
ceiling, so install the alarm in the center of the ceiling. If for some reasons the
alarm cannot be installed in the center of the ceiling, the distance between the
alarm and the corner of the wall should be more than 50 cm.
•
If the length of the room or hall (landing/stairwell) is more than 9m, install
multiple detectors in the hall.
•
Smoke detectors in rooms with a ceiling slope of more than 1m at 8m horizontally
should be installed on the high side of the room. Install a smoke detector on a
sloping, peaked or cathedral ceiling between 500mm and 1500mm from the
highest point of the ceiling
