end and correctly re-inserting them.
4. Re-install the detector on its mounting base by turning the detector clockwise until the mating
marks align.
5. After the power-up sequence, the green LED should blink once every 12 seconds to indicate
normal operation. If the batteries are not installed correctly, the detector will not operate and
the batteries may be damaged. If the detector does not power up, check that the batteries are
installed correctly and fully charged.
6. Test the detector (as described later).
Installation Instructions
The ASD30 series wireless smoke detector shall be installed and used within an environment that
provides the pollution degree max 2 and overvoltages category II in non- hazardous locations,
indoor only. The equipment is designed to be installed by SERVICE PERSONS only; (SERVICE
PERSON is defined as a person having the appropriate technical training and experience neces-
sary to be aware of hazards to which that person may be exposed in performing a task and of meas-
ures to minimize the risks to that person or other persons).
1. Smoke Detector Placement
Research has shown that all hostile fires in homes generate smoke to a greater or lesser extent.
Experiments with typical fires in homes indicate that detectable quantities of smoke precede detect-
able levels of heat in most cases. For these reasons, smoke alarms should be installed outside of
each sleeping area and on each storey of the home.
The following information is for general guidance only and it is recommended that local fire codes
and regulations be consulted when locating and installing smoke alarms. It is recommended that
additional smoke alarms beyond those required for minimum protection be installed. Additional
areas that should be protected include: the basement; bedrooms, especially where smokers sleep;
dining rooms; furnace and utility rooms; and any hallways not protected by the required units. On
smooth ceilings, detectors may be spaced 9.1m (30 feet) apart as a guide. Other spacing may be
required depending on ceiling height, air movement, the presence of joists, uninsulated ceilings,
etc. Consult appropriate national standards for installation recommendations.
l
Do not locate smoke detectors at the top of peaked or gabled ceilings; the dead air space in
these locations may prevent the unit from detecting smoke.
l
Avoid areas with turbulent air flow, such as near doors, fans or windows. Rapid air movement
around the detector may prevent smoke from entering the unit.
l
Do not locate detectors in areas of high humidity.
l
Do not locate detectors in areas where the temperature rises above 38ºC (100ºF) or falls below
5ºC (41ºF).
Where required by applicable laws, codes, or standards for a specific type of occupancy, approved
single- and multiple-station smoke alarms shall be installed as follows:
1. In all sleeping rooms and guest rooms.
2. Outside of each separate dwelling unit sleeping area, within 6.4 m (21 ft) of any door to a
sleeping room, the distance measured along a path of travel.
3. On every level of a dwelling unit, including basements.
4. On every level of a residential board and care occupancy (small facility), including basements
and excluding crawl spaces and unfinished attics.
5. In the living area(s) of a guest suite.
6. In the living area(s) of a residential board and care occupancy (small facility).
