7.0 MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

7.1 Visual inspection

We recommend you inspect and test your Twinguard  

on a monthly basis.

 

▶ The smoke inlet openings along 

the 360° light strip and the sound 

outlets are not clogged (e.g. by dust, 

dirt or paint)

 

▶ If necessary, clean the Smoke Alarm 

carefully with a damp cloth

 

▶ Check for any damage and that the 

bracket is still firmly fixed in place. 

 

▶ Ensure that there is a clear space 

of 0.5 m around your Twinguard so 

smoke detection is not hindered
