FLASHING LED LIGHT:
This smoke alarm is equipped with a flashing red
indicator light with the following modes of operation:
•
The LED will flash every every 60-70 seconds in the stand-by mode signifying
that the alarm is receiving power.
•
The LED will flash every 0.5 seconds when the alarm is sounding. The
flashing LED and pulsating alarm will continue until the air is cleared.
•
The LED will flash every 10 seconds while in Hush mode.
•
The LED will flash twice every 30 seconds when the alarm is within 30 days
of end of life.
•
The LED will flash every 30 seconds (with a chirp every 60 seconds) when the
alarm is at end of life (replace alarm immediately)
•
The alarm will chirp every 30 seconds without an LED flash to indicate a fault
condition with the processor of the alarm.
If your alarm regularly nuisance alarms (see ""Nuisance Alarms"") when
cooking, this indicates the alarm may be mounted too close to the source e.g.
kitchen. However, by pressing the
Hush/Test
button prior to cooking, you can
densisitise the alarm for approximately 10 minutes.
