During the reduced sensitivity mode the red LED on your alarm will continue to flash more rapidly than
normal, approximately once every 10 seconds. Only use the alarm silence function after making sure that
there is no fire emergency situation. Do not block the vents on the alarm or disable the alarm in any way, as
this will remove your protection.
NOTE:
If the level of heat / smoke reaching the alarm is very high the alarm silence will be overridden and
the alarm will continue to sound.
SLEEP EASY
TM
Low battery warnings often start at night or when it may be inconvenient to replace your alarm. You can
silence the audible 'low battery' chirp for a period of 8 hours by pressing the test button. After this period
the audible chirp will start again. This process can be repeated for a maximum of 10 times. Your alarm will
still detect heat / smoke during this time, however you must replace your alarm within 30 days, as it may
have insufficient power to warn you of a real fire situation after this time.
WARNING:
Your alarm cannot be silenced if the chirp is indicating a fault. In this instance, the unit should
be replaced immediately to ensure protection in the event of a fire.
