WARNING:
Your smoke alarm will not
operate without sufficient power.
As the alarm’s power pack reaches the end
of its life a low power warning chirp will be
emitted every 40 seconds. When this occurs
you must replace the unit within 7 days.
IMPORTANT:
Smoke alarms are
designed to alert you with an audible
alarm at a level specified by the British
Standard BS EN 14604: 2005. Closed doors,
walls and high ambient noise levels will
reduce this level. Temporary or permanently
impaired hearing may result in the alarm not
being heard. Stereos, traffic and other loud
sources may also prevent the alarm being
heard. Heavy sleepers and residents under
the influence of alcohol or drugs may also
not hear or respond to the alarm. Test and
check that you can hear the alarm in all
circumstances. If in doubt install additional
smoke alarms as required.
WARNING:
The Smoke alarm is not
suitable for alerting hearing impaired
residents. We recommend that specially
designed warning systems be installed that
will alert hearing impaired residents.
WARNING:
The smoke alarm
accompanying this manual employs the
latest technology and is independently tested
as being compliant with all the relevant British
Standards. However, as with any electronic
product it may fail and may not sense all
types of fire within sufficient time to alert you
of the danger and provide adequate time
for your escape. In order to maximise your
level of safety always test your smoke alarm
frequently to ensure it is in full working order.
Your Zeta smoke alarm is only suitable for
use in domestic/ residential applications
as covered in this manual. It is not suitable
for commercial or industrial applications.
It is designed to sense smoke and alert
you. It will not sense carbon monoxide,
flames, heat or gas. It will not prevent or
extinguish fires.
This Zeta smoke alarm has a limited life of
10 years and should not be considered as
a substitute for life or property insurance. Like
all electronic equipment, it can wear out or
fail. It should be tested weekly and replaced
immediately in the event of failure, and
replaced every 10 years regardless.
WARNING:
Prolonged exposure to
temperatures outside those stated above
will reduce product life.
