I. Specifications
Instructions FUME
FUME is a photoelectric smoke alarm, which is more effective at detecting smoldering fires that have been going for
a few hours without any sing of fire, before bursting into flames.
Those smoldering fires are linked to cigarettes left still burning in beds and/or couches.

For single floor houses, the most important location is the pathways, then as a precaution you should also install
FUME in each room!
For houses with more than 1 floor, placing 1 sensor in each staircase is essential for maximum prevention (
Figure 1
).
For additional protection you should place at least one alarm in every floor, attic and basements.

If for some reason you can´t install FUME in the middle of the ceiling, you must place it at least 10 cm away from the
corner.
If you chose to install FUME on a wall, be sure to place it at least 10cm and at a maximum of 30.5cm from the corner
between the wall and the ceiling (
Figure 2
).
Install an alarm next to every power outlet.
Always place Fume in the middle of the ceiling, since hot air tends to be higher than cooler air.

If your placing FUME on a pre made house make sure to follow the following instruction very carefully:
Normally pre made houses have poor heat isolation, as such you should install the alarm on a wall and place it at
10-30.5cm away from the ceiling.
If the full length of the wall you’ve selected exceeds 9m, you’ll need to place 2 FUMES to cover it full fully.
If you’re placing FUME on a triangular roof, please make sure to install it 0.9m away from the top corner (
Figure 3
).

As a precaution you should install a FUME in your bedroom.
FUME should not be placed where combustion particles are produced such as, poorly ventilated kitchen, garages, and
furnaces.
If you intend to install FUME in a similar place to the ones mentioned above, make sure to place FUME at least 6m from
sources of combustion particles (furnace, water heater, heaters), and try to ventilate this areas as much as possible.
If placed in a kitchen keep it away from air currents, as cooking smoke can be drawin by FUME.
III. Recommended places where you shouldn’t install FUME
Do not install in places where there’s accumulated dust, dirt and grease. Please don’t place it above the stove.
Try to keep FUME’s vicinity as clear from dust and lint as possible.
Steamy and damp areas are to be avoided as well as areas with showers (bathroom, saunas). Keep FUME 3m away
from showers.
Do not install in places where the temperature is constantly below 4.4ºC or above 37.8ºC.
