Smoke HUSH Control Feature

The HUSH feature has the capability of temporarily desensitizing
the smoke alarm circuit for approximately 9 minutes. This feature
is to be used only when a known alarm condition, such as smoke
from cooking, activates the alarm. When the unit is in alarm,You
can put your Smoke Alarm in HUSH mode by pushing the
test/reset button. If the smoke is not too dense, the alarm will
silence immediately, and the green LED will flash every 2 seconds
for approximately 9 minutes. This indicates that the smoke alarm
is in a temporarily desensitized condition. Your Smoke Alarm will
automatically reset after approximately 9 minutes. When the unit
returns to normal operation after being in HUSH mode, it will
sound the alarm if smoke is still present. The HUSH feature can
be used repeatedly until the air has been cleared of the condition
causing the alarm. While the unit is in HUSH mode, pushing the
test/reset button on the alarm will also end the HUSH period.

NOTE: DENSE SMOKE WILL OVERRIDE THE HUSH CONTROL
FEATURE AND SOUND A CONTINUOUS ALARM.

CAUTION: BEFORE USING THE ALARM HUSH FEATURE,

IDENTIFY THE SOURCE OF THE SMOKE AND BE CERTAIN A
SAFE CONDITION EXISTS.
