BRK Smoke Detector Operation (Model: FG250RV)
This article provides basic operation instructions for a BRK smoke detector (Model: FG250RV).
During an alarm, you will hear a loud, repeating horn
pattern: 3 beeps, pause, 3 beeps, pause; and the Red LED
will flash rapidly.
It is important to test this unit every week to make
sure it is working properly. Using the test button is the
recommended way to test this Smoke Alarm. Press and
hold the test button on the cover of the unit until the alarm
sounds (the unit may continue to alarm for a few seconds
after you release the button). If it does not alarm, make
sure the unit is receiving power and test it again. If it still
does not alarm, replace it immediately. During testing you
will hear a loud, repeating horn pattern: 3 beeps, pause, 3
beeps, pause; and the Red LED will flash rapidly.
If The Smoke Alarm Sounds
Weekly Testing
WARNING
!
If the unit alarms and you are not testing the unit, it
is warning you of a potentially dangerous situation
that requires your immediate attention. NEVER
ignore any alarm. Ignoring the alarm may result in
injury or death.
WARNING
!
Never use an open flame of any kind to test this
unit. You might accidentally damage or set fire to
the unit or to your home. The built-in test switch
accurately tests the unit’s operation as required by
Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. (UL).
WARNING
!
Never remove the batteries from a battery operated
Smoke Alarm to stop an unwanted alarm (caused by
cooking smoke, etc.). Removing batteries disables
the alarm so it cannot sense smoke, and removes
your protection. Instead open a window or fan the
smoke away from the unit. The alarm will reset
automatically.
WARNING
!
If the unit alarms get everyone out of the house
immediately.
WARNING
!
If the alarm ever fails to test properly, replace it
immediately.
Do not stand close to the alarm when the horn is
sounding. Exposure at close range may be harmful
to your hearing. When testing, step away when horn
starts sounding.
CAUTION
!
•
Test it at least once a week.
•
Clean the Smoke Alarm at least once a month; gently
vacuum the outside of the Smoke Alarm using your
household vacuum’s soft brush attachment. Test the
Smoke Alarm. Never use water, cleaners or solvents
since they may damage the unit.
•
If the Smoke Alarm becomes contaminated by
excessive dirt, dust and/or grime, and cannot be
cleaned to avoid unwanted alarms, replace the unit
immediately.
•
Relocate the unit if it sounds frequent unwanted
alarms. See “Locations to Avoid for Smoke Alarms”
for details.
•
When the battery becomes weak, the Smoke Alarm
unit will “chirp” about once a minute (the low battery
warning). This low battery warning should last 7
days, but you should replace the battery immediately
to continue your protection. Note: If locking pin is
engaged see “Locking Feature” section for unlocking
instructions.
This unit has been designed to be as maintenance free as
possible, but there are a few simple things you must do to
keep it working properly.
Regular Maintenance
Replacing The Battery
Your Smoke Alarm requires one standard 9V battery.
The following batteries are acceptable as replacements:
Duracell #MN1604, Eveready (Energizer) #522. You may
also use a Lithium battery like the Ultralife U9VL-J, U9VL-
J-P for longer service life between battery changes. These
batteries are available at many local retail stores.
To lock/unlock the cover to the base:
1. Using needle-nose pliers or a utility knife, detach
locking pin from back of alarm base.
2. Insert locking pin into the slot located on the front of
the alarm as shown in the diagram.
3. Remove pin to unlock and replace battery.
