Radio module features
This smoke alarm is equipped with a radio module that:
Transmits radio signals to up to 40 interconnected smoke alarms.
Transmits radio signals to one or several supplementary Visit receivers. A Visit receiver
will help hard of hearing and deaf people to notice the alarm. The alert type and signal
pattern for the Visit receiver is found in the product’s user manual.
Radio channel/key
This smoke alarm transmits on a fixed radio channel/radio key. So, no matter what radio
key your Visit receiver is set to, it will respond to the alarm if it’s within radio range.
Radio range
The operation range between a smoke alarm and an interconnected unit or Visit receiver is
over 100 m free field but is influenced by the thickness of the walls and the wall materials in
the house or apartment. The range will also be also be reduced if the smoke alarm battery
level is low. Check that the Visit receivers and interconnected units responds to the smoke
alarm signal everywhere in the house or apartment. The bedroom is most important.

Test and maintenance
Your smoke alarm is a life saving device and should be tested periodically. Regularly check
that the red LED on the smoke alarm blinks every 40 s to show that the unit is powered.
Testing your smoke alarms
It is recommended that you test your smoke alarms after installation and then at least
weekly to ensure the units are working.
Press and hold the test button until the alarm sounds. If there is no sound, the battery,
horn or circuity could be defected, please read the 'Troubleshooting' section for advice.
If you have interconnected smoke alarms, they will sound for 10s and blink fast for 5 min.
To mute them, press the test button on each unit.
If the smoke alarm is connected to a supplementary Visit receiver, check and make sure
that the Visit receiver reacts too. See the 'Quick start guide' section and the Visit receiver
user manual. The Visit receiver will stop signalling within 40s.
Repeat this procedure for all non-interconnected smoke alarms in the system.
Warning:
Do not test with an open flame. You could damage the alarm or ignite combustible
materials and start a fire. When you press the test button it simulates the effect of smoke in a
smoke alarm which it could experience in a real fire. So, there is no need to test smoke alarms
with smoke or flame.
Cleaning your smoke alarm
Clean your smoke alarm regularly. Use a soft bristle brush or the brush attachment of your
vacuum cleaner to remove dust and cobwebs from the side slots where the smoke enters.
To clean the cover, wipe with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
Important:
Do not attempt to remove the cover to clean the inside. This will affect warranty.
Warning:
Do not paint your smoke alarm. Other than the maintenance and cleaning described
in this leaflet, no other customer servicing of this product is required. Repairs, when needed,
must be performed by the manufacturer
