9.   Reasons for triggering a false alarm 

 

The following may be causes of a false alarm: 

 

Water and kitchen steam 

 

high air humidity 

 

dust 

 

Strong drafts etc. 

 

Usually the smoke of cigarettes does not trigger the alarm. If the alarm still be triggered, please 
make sure that not a fire has activated the wireless smoke alarm detector! If no fire is detected in 
one of the rooms, you can set the alarm of the smoke detector temporarily mute (

see chapter: 

3.3

).

 

 

10. Behavior in case of fire 

 

The installation of a heat or wireless smoke alarm detector is only one of many fire protection 
measures. Other fire protection measures are e.g. the provision of a fire extinguisher or a fire 
blanket.  Another measure is the creation of an escape plan and the subsequent discussion with 
your roommates or your family. 

If the fire cannot be extinguished with a fire extinguisher or a fire blanket by yourself,  then leave 
the house immediately! Do not waste time to put clothes on or by transportation of personal 
objects - because every second counts! 

After leaving the house please inform the fire department immediately! 

When leaving the burning room, please check first the surface of the door to its temperature. 
Should the door be hot or under the door smoke rising up, do not open the door! If possibly please 
use another door or a window to escape from the room. If the surface of the door is cold, then 
brace yourselves with the shoulder against the door and open it a small gap. Be always careful 
and ready to slam the door quickly, if heat or produced penetrates from the next door. 

With strong production of smoke please keep close to the ground and breathe - if possibly - 
through a cloth. Better still by a damp cloth!  

You may enter the house again only after release or permission of the fire brigade!
