DANGER: ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD. Turn off power

switching the circuit breaker to the OFF position and securing
it. An all-pole mains switch with a contact separation of at
least 3mm in each pole shall be incorporated in the electrical
installation of the building.
WARNING: THIS SMOKE ALARM MUST BE INSTALLED BY
QUALIFIED (LICENSED) ELECTRICIANS ONLY.
Wiring Requirements
• This smoke alarm should be installed with an AS/NZS Wiring
Rules approved junction box. All connections must be installed
by a qualified electrician and be in accordance with the relevant
requirements of the AS/NZS Wiring Rules AS3000 Standards.
• The appropriate power source is 240VAC 50Hz continuous single
phase sine wave current supplied from a non-switchable circuit
which is not protected by a RCD.
•
WARNING:
This alarm cannot be operated from power derived
from a square wave or modified square wave inverter. These type
of inverters are sometimes used to supply power to the structure in
off grid installations, such as solar or wind derived power sources.
These power sources produce high peak voltages that will damage
the alarm.

Caution! Turn off the main power to the circuit before
wiring the alarm.
• For alarms that are used as single station,
DO NOT CONNECT
THE RED WIRE TO ANYTHING
. Leave the red wire insulating cap
in place to make certain that the red wire cannot contact any metal
parts or the electrical box.

N.B. - Smoke alarms are not to be used with detector
guards unless the combination (alarm and guard) has been
evaluated and found suitable for that purpose.
