Safety information
Putting into operation
Before operation
Warning
• Keep children away from the packaging – there is a risk of suffocation.
• Remove all packaging material before using the device.
What to do when you hear the alarm
• Leave the premises immediately. Every second counts – there is no time to get
dressed or gather valuable belongings. Use the emergency escape routes.
• Warn your fellow residents and make sure they also leave – especially children
and people with impaired hearing.
• Do not open doors without first checking the surface. Do not open a door if it is
hot or you see smoke under it. Use an alternative escape route. If the surface is
cool, push against it with your shoulder, slightly open it and be prepared to close
it again if there is heat, smoke or fire behind it.
• If there is smoke in the air, keep close to the floor and breathe through a damp
cloth if possible.
• Close the doors after leaving the room.
• Once you have left the building, go to the agreed assembly point and do not go
back inside.
• Alert the fire service: tel. 112
• Notify the fire service of the situation inside the building.
For recommended installation locations, see the diagram
• Position the smoke detector directly on the ceiling in the centre of the room.
• Priority rooms: living rooms, bedrooms and children’s playrooms.
• If you have more than one bedroom, each one should be fitted with a smoke
detector.
• To monitor corridors, you should also fit smoke detectors there, because
stairwells are particularly susceptible to fires due to the chimney effect.
Long corridors might require several smoke detectors.
