MAINTENANCE
Batteries
The smoke detector is powered by three 1,5V AA alkaline batteries. Depending on use, the average
life of the batteries is 2-4 years. The smoke detector itself will indicate when the batteries are low.
When the batteries have power left for about one month you will receive the following warnings:
1. The smoke detector's status indicator will start to flash red and the smoke detector will emit a
low volume beep every 30 seconds.
2. In your Egardia account you will see the message "Battery low level" under the tab "Alarm
history".
3. You will receive a one-time message by telephone, SMS or email.
4. The central indicator light (Alarm) of your gateway is lit yellow. After the batteries have been
replaced the gateway will return to normal status.
Replacing the batteries
1. Ensure that the alarm is turned off.
2. Remove the smoke detector from the mounting plate by turning it anti-clockwise.
3. Remove the old batteries and replace by three new 1,5V AA alkaline batteries. Ensure that the
battery polarization is correct. When the batteries are installed you will hear two beeps and the
status indicator will flash for about 15 minutes.
4. Replace the smoke detector onto the mounting plate by turning it clockwise.
Please note! Every time the batteries are replaced the smoke detector will automatically go into
initialisation mode.
