by
the
working
environment
‐
always
take
care
during

calls.
Installation
It
is
easier
to
test
and
learn
the
flood
detector
before
fixing
–
see
above.
When
fixing;
always
ensure
the
2
brass

are
touching
the
floor.
Select
the
best
location,
then
fix
to
the
skirting
board
with
the
single
screw
through
the
hole
in
the
right
angle
bracket.
If

select
a

dry.
Stick
the

pad
to
the
rear
of
right
angle
bracket
then
press
the
detector
firmly
to
the
skirting
board
ensuring
it
is
stuck
securely.
Flood
Alarms
If
the

signals
an
alarm
remove
it
from
the
affected
area
until
the
carpet/flooring
is
thoroughly
dried.
Dry
the
flood
detector
to
prevent
corrosion
of
the
brass
studs.
Note:
if
the
flood
detector
is
frequently
activated
by
water
on
the
floor
then
it
may
be
necessary
to
relocate
the
device
away
from
the
cause
of
the
alarm.
Battery
Life
The
flood
detector
battery
is
checked
once
a
day,
if
the
voltage
falls
and
stays
below
a
preset
level
for
7
consecutive
days
a
low
battery
alert
is
automatically
transmitted.
Once
a
low
battery
call
is
received
the
flood
detector
should
be
replaced
within
7
days.
Flood
detectors
must
be
returned
to
Tynetec/Aidcall
for
battery
replacement.
