Locating and Positioning of Smoke Alarms:
Installation of Smoke Alarms:
1. From back of the smoke alarm, remove the mounting plate by
turning it counterclockwise. (To later engage tamper-resist feature,
twist out and set aside one of the pins moulded into plate. Both pins
are exactly the same).
2. Position smoke alarm to mounting plate and turn clockwise to lock
into place. To engage tamper-resist feature, insert pin into notch and
edge of smoke alarm after alarm is properly positioned in base.
3. Push test button to test smoke alarm.
WARNING:
Incorrect orientation will result in a decrease in
operational effectiveness.
This smoke alarm is a single station photoelectric alarm and should NOT be connected to other smoke alarms.
If your dwelling is on a single storey, for minimum protection you should fit an alarm in the hallway between the
living areas (incl. Kitchens) and sleeping areas. Place it as near to the living areas as possible and ensure the alarm
is audible when the bedrooms are occupied.
If your dwelling is multi-storey, for minimum protection one alarm should be fitted at the bottom of the staircase
with further alarms fitted on each upstairs landing. This includes basements but excludes crawl spaces and
unfinished attics.
NOTE:
For maximum protection an alarm should be fitted in every room (except kitchen, bathroom and garage).
DO NOT FIT AN ALARM IN THE KITCHEN or BATHROOM, as cooking fumes or steam may trigger the alarm.
DO NOT FIT ALARM IN A GARAGE, as exhaust fumes are likely to set it off.
Ceiling Mounting
As hot smoke rises and spread out, it is advisable to mount on a ceiling in a central position. Avoid areas where
there is no air circulation. E.g. Corners of rooms and keep away from items which may prevent the free flow of air.
Place the unit at least 300mm from and light fitting or decorative object which might obstruct smoke / heat
entering the alarm. Keep at least 300mm away from walls. See Figure 3i.
Wall Mounting
Do not mount tight into the corners. Put the top edge of your smoke alarm between 150 and 300mm below the
ceiling. Keep at least 300mm from room corners. See Figure 3i
On a Sloping Ceiling
In areas with sloping or peaked ceilings install your Smoke Alarm 900mm from the highest point measured
horizontally because “dead air” at the apex may prevent smoke from reaching the unit. See Figure 3ii.

IMPORTANT:
This manual contains important information about the installation and operation of your smoke alarm. Please read carefully before installation
and keep for future reference. Please ensure that this leaflet remains in the household where the alarm is installed.
WARNING:
This smoke alarm is designed to alert you to the presence of smoke. It cannot prevent a fire. There are hazards against which smoke alarms may
not be effective such as smoking in bed, explosions, etc. The ultimate responsibility for fire protection rests with you. This responsibility includes escape
planning, safety checks and an effective warning system. In case of fire, a well-placed, properly looked after smoke alarm may provide a few seconds so that
you can escape and call the fire brigade.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
1. The battery must be operational to operate the alarm
correctly. To test the battery press the test button on this
smoke alarm.
2. The test button accurately tests all smoke alarm
functions. DO NOT use any other test method.
3. DO NOT remove or disconnect battery to silence
unwanted alarms. This will remove your protection. Press
hush button or open windows to ventilate the smoke
alarm to silence it.
4. This smoke alarm is designed to be used inside a single
unit dwelling only. In buildings with several dwellings,
each individual living unit should have its own smoke
alarms. DO NOT install in non-residential buildings.
5. Install a smoke alarm in every room and on every level
of the home.
6. Smoke alarms can only sound their alarms when they
detect smoke. Smoke alarms detect combustion particles
in the air. They do not sense heat, flame or gas. This
smoke alarm is designed to give an audible warning of a
developing fire. However, many fires are fast burning,
explosive or intentional. Others are caused by careless-
ness or safety hazards. Smoke may not reach the smoke
alarm quickly enough to ensure safe escape.
7. 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 insure 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 every 10 years.

the BRANCH wireless base. The Subordinate unit’s LED will flash 5 times indicating successful interconnec-
tion.
NOTE:
If the BRANCH units does not flash its LED 5 times but stays ON, the wireless interconnection has
failed. In this case, check the range or reduce the distance between units and make sure the MASTER unit’s
LED remains ON while operating the BRANCH unit.
5. Repeat step 4 on all other BRANCH units.
6. After all units has been paired. Press Test button and hold MASTER unit’s Test button for 2 seconds to do
