- INTRODUCTION
- 1. At the place where you are going to install the detector, draw a horizontal line six inches long.
- 2. Remove the mounting bracket from your unit by rotating it counterclockwise.
- 3. Place the bracket so that the two longest hold slots are aligned on the line. In each of keyhole slots, drawing a mark to locate a mounting. plug and screw.
- 4. Remove the bracket.
- 5. Using a 3/16-inch(5mm) drill bit, drills two holes at the marks and insert plastic wall plugs. Put the detector away from plastic dust on it when you drill holds for mounting.
- 6. Using the two screws and plastic wall plugs (all supplied), attach the bracket to the wall.
- 7. Line up the slot of the bracket and the detector. Push the detector onto the mounting bracket on turn it clockwise to fix it into the place. Pull onward on the smoke detector to make sure it is securely attached to the mounting bracket.
- 1. Install smoke detectors properly. Carefully follow all the instructions in this manual. Keep your smoke detectors clean, and test them every week.
- 2. Remember that smoke detector that do not work will not alert you. Replace your smoke detectors immediately if they are not working properly.
- 3. Follow fire safety rules, and prevents hazardous situations:
- 4. Develop a family escape plan and practice it with your entire family. Be sure to include small children in your practice.
- 1. Don’t panic and stay calm. Your safe escape may depend on thinking clearly and remembering what you have practiced.
- 2. Get out of the house as quickly as possible. Follow a planned escape route. Do not stop to collect anything or to get dressed.
- 3. Feel the doors to see if they are hot. If they are not, open them carefully. Do not open a door if it is hot. Use an alternate escape route.
- 4. Stay close to the floor. Smoke and hot gases rise.
- 5. Cover your nose and mouth with a wet or damp cloth. Take short, shallow breaths.
- 6. Keep doors and windows closed. Open them only if you have to in order to escape.
- 7. Meet at your planned meeting place after leaving the house.
- 8. Call the Fire Department as soon as possible from outside your house. Give the address and your name.
- 9. Never go back inside a burning building. Contact your local Fire Department. They will give you more ideas about how to make your home safer from fires and how to plan your family’s escape.

WARNING: LIMITATIONS OF SMOKE
DETECTORS/TRANSMITTERS
This smoke detector is designed to activate and initiate emergency action, but will
only do so when used in conjunction with an authorized fire alarm system. This
detector must be installed in accordance with NFPA standard 72.
Smoke detectors will not work without power. AC or DC powered smoke
detectors will not work if, for any reason, the power supply is cut off. An alarm sig-
nal sent by the wireless transmitter in this detector may be blocked or reflected by
metal before reaching the alarm receiver. Even if the signal path has been recently
checked, blockage may occur if a metal object is moved into the path.
Smoke detectors will not sense fires when smoke does not reach the detec-
tors. Smoldering fires typically do not generate a large amount of heat, which is
needed to drive smoke up to the ceiling where the smoke detector is usually
located. For this reason, there may be large delays in detecting a smoldering fire
with either an ionization-type detector or a photoelectric-type detector. Either
one of them may only generate an alarm after flaming has initiated, which will
generate the heat needed to drive the smoke to the ceiling.
Smoke from fires in chimneys, in walks, on roofs, or on the other side of a closed
door may not reach the smoke detector and generate an alarm. A detector may not
quickly detect or sense at all, a fire developing on another level of a building. Alarm
warning devices, such as bells or horns, may not alert people or wake up sleepers if
they are located on the other side of closed or partly open doors, or on another
level. Persons may not hear a warning device over the noise levels of a radio, air
conditioner or appliances or traffic. For this reason, detectors are strongly recom-
mended to be located on every level and in every bedroom within a building.
Alarm warning devices, however loud, may not warn hearing-impaired people or
waken deep sleepers.
Smoke detectors shall be located in any room where an alarm control is
located, or in any room where alarm control connections to an AC source or
phone lines are made. If detectors are not so located, a fire within any of these
rooms could prevent the QED control from reporting a fire.
Sensing limitations of smoke detectors. Ionization detectors and photoelec-
tronic detectors are required to pass fire tests of the flaming and smoldering
types. This is to ensure that both can detect a wide range of fires. Ionization detec-
tors offer a broad range of fire-sensing capability, but not always provide early
warning of a specific type of fire.
In general, detectors cannot be expected to provide warning for fires resulting
from inadequate fire protection practices, violent explosions, escaping gases that
ignite, improper storage of flammable liquids like cleaning solvents that ignite,
other similar safety hazards, arson, smoking in bed, children playing with matches
or lighters, etc. Smoke detectors used in high air velocity conditions may have a
delay in alarm due to dilution of smoke densities created by frequent and rapid air
exchanges. Additionally, high air velocity environments may create increased
dust contamination, demanding more frequent detector maintenance.
Maintenance of smoke detectors must be done. To keep your equipment in
excellent working order, ongoing monthly maintenance is required as outlined
above and as per UL and NFPA standards. At a minimum, the requirements of
Chapter 7 of NFPA 72, the National Fire Alarm Code, shall be followed. A preventa-
tive maintenance agreement should be arranged through the local manufac-
turer’s representative. Though smoke detectors are designed for long life, they
may fail at any time. Any smoke detector, fire alarm equipment, or any compo-
nent of that system which fails must be repaired or replaced as soon as possible.
