USING THE ELEMENT
LED INDICATORS:
. The red led flashes quickly and a sound rings when a dangerous level of smoke is detected.
. The red led flashes and one beep is emitted every minute to warn that the battery must be replaced.
. The red led flashes and 3 beeps are emitted every minute to warn that the detector is faulty and must be
replaced.
. The red led flashes all 10 seconds to indicate that the detector is working normally.
OPERATION :
- If smoke is present : the detector functions when it is powered by a battery and if it detects smoke. When
starting it up, you will hear a loud sound (over 85 dB, repetition of 4 beeps + a pause) and the red led will
flash quickly until the smoke has disappeared. You can turn off the sound by pressing and holding down the
«TEST/HUSH» button until it stops. If the level of smoke is still dangerous after 10 minutes, the alarm will be
triggered again.
- How it works: the detector is equipped with a red flashing indicator light. The indicator light is next to the TEST/
HUSH button; it blinks every 10 seconds to show that the detector is operational. Change the battery if the
indicator light is no longer on.
- Testing the detector : check the detector by keeping the TEST/HUSH button located on the cover
pressed down until the leds start to flash. This will trigger the alarm. If this does not trigger the
alarm, check the battery of each detector. Do not use any other testing method.
IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU TEST YOUR DETECTORS EVERY WEEK
DUE TO THE VOLUME (85dB) ALARM, ALWAYS STAY AT LEAST ONE ARM LENGTH OF
SENSOR DURING THE TESTS
CLEANING:
To clean your detector, remove it from its support by removing the lock tab then unscrew it anticlockwise. Clean
your detector by sucking up the dust with a vacuum cleaner. Use a slightly damp cloth to clean the exterior
surface of the detector.
After cleaning it, put the detector back and test that it works correctly
Do not use cleaning fluids, alcohol, solvents, do not paint the device. They can affect the reliability of the short
or long term.
You must not in any circumstances dismantle the detector to clean the inside as this may break the terms of
the warranty.
