contamination build-up for example) the alarm can be
silenced by disconnecting the 12 Volt supply. Disconnect the
alarm with the red light flashing - as the rest are probably
satisfactory.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using household protective devices, basic safety
precautions should always be followed, including those listed
below:
• Please read all instructions.
• Rehearse emergency escape plans so everyone at home
knows what to do in case the alarm sounds. Further
information can be obtained from the Home Office or from
your local fire prevention officer.
• To maintain sensitivity to smoke/heat, do not paint or cover
the alarm in any manner; do not permit any accumulation of
cobwebs, dust or grease.
• If unit has been damaged in any way or does not function
properly,do not attempt a repair. Return Alarm (see - Getting
your Alarm Serviced).
• This appliance is only intended for premises having a
residential type environment.
• Smoke / Heat Alarms are not a substitute for insurance. The
supplier or manufacturer is not your insurer.
• The chamber inside the Ionisation (Ei100R3) Smoke Alarm
contains a small amount of radioactive material (33kBq of
Americium 241). Do not tamper with the chamber. You may
safely install and clean the Smoke Alarm following this
leaflet’s instructions.
• In the UK & Republic of Ireland please contact us at the
nearest address at the end of this booklet for information on
repair and/or disposal.
• Do not dispose of your Alarm in a fire.
PLANNING YOUR ESCAPE ROUTE FOR WHEN THE
ALARM GOES OFF
Use the Smoke / Heat Alarm Test Buttons to familiarize your
family with the Alarm sound and to practice fire drills regularly
with all family members. Draw up a floor plan that will show
each member at least 2 escape routes from each room in the
house. Children tend to hide when they don’t know what to do.
Teach children how to escape, open windows, and use roll up
fire ladders and stools without adult help. Make sure they
know what to do if the alarm goes off - see below.
