Cleaning and Maintenance
Periodically apply the Test Procedure to test the alarm. Smoke Alarms are prone to dust and insect ingress which can cause false
alarms. It is prudent to clean the smoke alarm periodically. The Smoke Alarm must be kept clean so that excess dust does not
build up. Any insects or cobwebs in the vicinity of the Smoke Alarm should be promptly removed. Vacuum the outside of the
Smoke Alarm to remove any dust build up. Do not spray any cleaning liquids directly onto the smoke alarm.
Alarm Memory Feature
In an interconnected group, only the LED on the triggered alarm flashes twice approximately every 20 seconds for 72 hours. This
can be used to identify the triggered unit.
Hush Mode
In the event of an alarm condition, pressing the HUSH button on the alarm unit will silence the alarm for approximately 10
minutes. NOTE: Where multiple alarms are interconnected, the HUSH function WILL NOT OPERATE EXCEPT ON THE UNIT THAT
THE ALARM WAS TRIGGERED FROM. The triggered unit can be identified by the RED LED flashing.

Develop an Escape Plan
As part of your plan, all family members should know and/or practice:
1. The two quickest ways out of each room
2. How to exit from upstairs, for homes with a second storey. A rope or chain may be required.
3. An agreed upon meeting place outside, such as the letterbox
4. The sound of the smoke alarm and practice leaving your home when they hear it.
5. A fire drill at least every six months including drills at nights. Practice allows you to test your plan before an emergency. You
may not be able to reach your children. It is important that they know what to do!
What to do if the Alarm sounds
1. Alert any small children and elderly persons.
2. Leave immediately by your plan of escape. Every second counts, so don’t waste time getting dressed or picking up valuables.
3. In leaving, don’t open any inside door without first feeling its surface. If hot, or if you see smoke seeping through cracks, don’t
open that door! Instead, use your alternate exit. If inside door is cool, place your shoulder against it, open it slightly and be ready
to slam it shut if heat and smoke rush in.
4. Stay close to the floor if air is smoky. Breathe shallowly through a wet cloth if p
ossible.
5. Once outside, go to your selected meeting place and make sure everyone is there.
6. Call the Fire Brigade on 000.
7. Don’t return to your home until officials say that it is safe to do so. For further information on fire safety contact your local Fire
Brigade.
