detects smoke.

Smoke  alarm  may  not  alert  every  household  member 

every  time.  The  alarm  horn  is  loud  in  order  to  alert 

individuals  to  a  potential  danger.  However,  there  may  be 

some circumstances where a household member may not 

hear  the  alarm  (i.e.  outdoor  or  indoor  noise,  sound 

sleepers, drug or alcohol usage, the hard of hearing, etc.). 

If  you  suspect  that  this  smoke  alarm  may  not  alert  a 

household  member,  install  and  maintain  specialty  smoke 

alarms.  Household  member  must  hear  the  alarm’s 

warning sound and quickly respond to it to reduce the risk 

of injury, or death that may result from fire, if a household 

member  is  hard  of  hearing,  install  special  smoke  alarms 

with lights or vibrating devices to alert occupants. 

8.

 

Smoke  alarms  can  only  sound  their  alarms  when  they 

detect  smoke  or  detect  combustion  particles  in  the  air. 

They do not sense heat, flame, or gas. This smoke alarm 

is  designed  to  give  audible  warning  of  a  developing  fire. 

However,  many  fires  are  fast  -  burning,  explosive,  or 

intentional,  and  others  are  caused  by  carelessness  or 

safety  hazards.  In  such  circumstances,  Smoke  may  not 

reach  the  alarm 

QUICKLY  ENOUGH 

to  ensure  safe 

escape. Therefore the installation of smoke alarms is not a 

substitute for practicing fire safety in the home.   

9.

 

Smoke  alarms  have  limitations.  This  smoke  alarm  is  not 

foolproof and is not warranted to protect lives or property 

from fire. Smoke alarms are not a substitute for insurance. 

Homeowners  and  renters  should  have  adequate  insure  to 

protect their lives and property. In addition, it is possible 

for  the  smoke  alarm  to  fail  at  any  time.  For  this  reason, 

you  must  test  the  smoke  alarm  weekly  and  replace  them 

every 10 years.
