Other than the cleaning described above, no other
customer servicing of this product is required. Repairs,
when needed, must be performed by the manufacturer.
All Alarms are prone to dust and insect ingress which
can cause nuisance/false alarms or failure to alarm.
In certain circumstances even with regular cleaning,
contamination can build up in the smoke sensing
chamber causing the Alarm to sound or fail. If this
happens the Alarm can be returned to us for servicing
or replacement. Contamination is beyond our control, it
is totally unpredictable and is considered normal wear
and tear.
For this reason, contamination is not covered by the
guarantee and a charge is made for servicing such units.
If you experience persistent nuisance/false alarms it may
mean that the environment may not be suitable for your
particular Alarm type.
When sure that it is just a nuisance/false alarm, simply
press the test/silence button briefly on the Alarm to
silence the unit for 10 minutes.
If, when the alarm goes off, there is no sign of smoke,
heat or noise to indicate that there is a fire, you should
get your family into a safe place, before you start
investigating.
Check the house carefully in case there is a small fire
smouldering 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 device away from the source
of the fumes. If for some reason the Alarm continues
to sound without smoke or heat being present (due to
insect infestation or contamination build-up for example)
the units can be silenced by disconnecting the mains
power and removing the unit - see “ ALARM REMOVAL ”
section - page 11 (Installer section).
If cleaning the Alarm does not correct the problem
it can be returned to the manufacturer for repair or
replacement - see “Service and Guarantee” section.
Silence Feature
All the Smoke Alarms have a combined Test/Silence
Button to help you control nuisance/false alarms.
1. To silence a nuisance/false alarm, press the Test/
Silence Button located on the cover. The Alarm will
automatically switch to a reduced sensitivity condition
for a 10 minute period (very large levels of smoke
from a nearby fire will override the silence period).
The unit will flash the red light every 10 seconds (instead
of the normal 40 seconds) to indicate the sensitivity is
reduced.
On interconnected Alarms, pressing the Test/Silence
Button on the one sensing smoke (i.e. the one with the
red light flashing every second) will silence all alarms.
Pressing the Silence Button on any other Alarm will not
silence the alarm.
2. The unit will reset to normal sensitivity at the end of
the silenced period.
