Functionalty and Characteristics
The smoke detector operates according to the optical principle and has a
measurement chamber in which penetrating smoke particles are measured.
If the alarm threshold is exceeded, a clamorous alarm sounds.
The alarm is turned off as soon as the measurement chamber is smoke-free.
• Monitoring area: 40 m
• Battery operated (1x9V battery)
• Automatic recognition of battery level
• Battery case monitor
(smoke detector can only be installed with battery inserted)
• Simple cover assembly
• Optical (LED) and acoustic alarm
What to do in case an alarm sound is triggered
• Immediately leave the residence!
Every second counts; do not lose any time to getting dressed or carrying objects.
Use an escape route!
• Do not open any doors without first inspecting the surface.
If it is hot or smoke can be seen underneath the door, do not open the door!
Use an alternative escape route. If the surface is cool,
press a shoulder against it, open it slightly and be prepared to close the door
if heat and smoke enter.
• If the air is smoky, stay close to the floor and breath through a damp cloth
if possible.
• Once out of the building, go to the agreed upon meeting point and do not
return to the house.
• Call the fire department outside the burning building.
Installation locations
• Place the smoke detector directly on the ceiling in the center of the room.
• Preferred rooms are living rooms, bedrooms and children's rooms.
If there are multiple bedrooms, install additional smoke detectors in each
bedroom.
• Smoke detectors should also be installed in hallways in order to monitor them,
as fires can easily be ignited in stairways in particular (chimney effect).
Several detectors may be necessary in long hallways.
The distance between the detectors should not be greater than 8 m.
• When installing on the ceiling, ensure that the detector is at least 15 cm
from the side wall and at least 50 cm from each corner.
