INSTALL MOUNTING BASE RING
Mark the drilling holes by using the mounting
base ring as a pattern. Drill the holes with a
correctly sized drill. Fit the screw anchors sup-
plied with your Cautiex smoke alarm into the
drilling holes. Now you can fit the mounting
base ring to the ceiling using the screws sup-
plied with your Cautiex smoke alarm.
For flawless attaching / detaching, assure that
the screw heads are flush with the mounting
base ring screw holes.
ATTACH TO BASE
Attach your Cautiex smoke alarm to the mounting base ring, by
fitting it in and twisting it clockwise. You should feel the device
has tightened and hear a “clicking” sound.
Always test your Cautiex smoke alarms functionality after
mounting / dismounting.
FUNCTIONAL TEST
The test routine includes a test of your Cautiex smoke alarms
sensing chamber. To initiate a functional test of your Cautiex
smoke alarm press the multifunctional LED and test button
firmly. While pressing the test button your Cautiex smoke alarm
emits a loud and penetrating sound pattern designed to warn
occupants. The red LED on the multifunctional test button will
begin to flash rapidly while being pushed.
The sound level of your Cautiex smoke alarm is 88+-2dB at 3 me-
tres distance. To avoid injury, keep a reasonable distance between
your ears and the Cautiex smoke alarm while testing the device.
Note that your Cautiex smoke alarm is only active and functional
while it’s fitted in the mounting base ring.
If your Cautiex smoke alarm does not pass the functional test
refer to the trouble-shooting section of this user manual.
