Installation
Installation procedure
1
Select a location complying with the advice
in the Location and positioning section.
2
Remove the mounting bracket from the
smoke alarm by twisting it in an anti-clock-
wise direction, see Figure 6.
3
Place the mounting bracket on the ceiling
exactly where you want to mount the smoke
alarm. With a pencil, mark the location of the
two screw holes.
4
Taking care to avoid any electrical wiring in
the ceiling, drill holes using a 5.0 mm drill bit
through the center of the marked locations.
Push the plastic screw anchors provided into
the drilled holes. Make sure the flat side of the
bracket is flush with mounting surface, then
screw the mounting bracket to the ceiling.
5
Connect the supplied battery to the battery
snaps as shown in the
Quick start guide
on
page 5. Verify that the horn and LED on the
cover aluminate as indicated in the table on
the
Indication
summary
on page 4.
6
Place the smoke alarm unit on top of the
mounting bracket and twist it clockwise to
attach it. Install all the other alarms similarly.
7
Press the test button on each smoke alarm to
ensure that the smoke alarm unit works, see
Figure 7.

If you are using a supplementary Visit receiver,
also make sure that it lights up a fire symbol
in red and alerts with sound, flash or vibration
(depending on the type of Visit receiver you
are using). For more information, see the
Quick start guide
on page 5 and the Visit
receiver user manual.
Hush mode
The smoke alarms have a combined test/hush button to help you control
nuisance/ false alarms. It is recommended for caravans, workshops, near
kitchens and bathrooms - area where local conditions may cause false alarm.
If, when the alarm sounds, even there is no sign of smoke or noise to indicate
that there is a fire, it should be assumed that it is due to an actual fire and
the dwelling should be evacuated immediately.
Check the house carefully in case there is a small fire smoldering somewhere.
Check whether there is some source of smoke or fumes, for example cooking
fumes being drawn past the smoke alarm by an extractor.
If there are frequent nuisance/false alarms it may be necessary to re-locate
the smoke alarm away from the source of the fumes.
1 To cancel a false alarm from a smoke alarm, press the test/hush button
(the smoke alarm will automatically switch to a reduced sensitivity condi-
tion). The smoke alarms will be silenced for a period of approximately 10
minutes.
2 The smoke alarm will reset to normal sensitivity at the end of the silenced
period (10 minutes). If additional silenced time is required, simply push
the test/hush button again and the 10 minutes hush function will be
re-started.
3 While in the Hush mode, the smoke alarm will still be in detection mode
but the sensitivity is reduced. If the density of smoke increased, the unit
will automatically bypass the Hush mode and the alarm will sound.
4 After installation & testing, the smoke alarm may go into the Hush mode.
The unit will automatically switch to the normal detection mode after
10 minutes.
