dampened with clear water, and dry it with a lint-free cloth.
Be careful not to get any water into the openings where it
can get on the detector components. Replace the battery.
E. Test the detector after closing the cover whenever you
have opened it to replace the battery or clean it.
WARNING: If the detector does not work properly, make
sure that the battery is fresh and is connected correctly, and
that the openings to the sensing chambers are clean. If there
is still a problem, do not try to fix the detector yourself.
This will void your warranty. Send the detector to Visonic
Inc., 10 Northwood Drive, Bloomfield CT 06002. Enclose a
note describing what is wrong with the detector in the
package with the detector.

Putting up smoke detectors is just the first step in a protecting
your family from fires. You also must reduce the chances that
fires will start in your home and increase your chances of safely
escaping if one does start. To have an effective fire safety
program:
A. Install smoke detectors properly following the
instructions in this manual. Keep your smoke detectors
clean and replace the batteries when required. Test your
detector weekly and repair or replace it when it no longer
functions. As with any electronic product, smoke detectors
have a limited life, and detectors that don’t work cannot
protect you.
B. Follow safety rules and prevent hazardous situations.
1. Use smoking materials properly; never smoke in bed.
2. Keep matches and cigarette lighters away from children.
3. Store flammable materials in proper containers and never
use them near open flames or sparks.
4. Keep electrical appliances and cords in good working
order and do not overload electrical circuits.
5. Keep stoves, fireplaces, chimneys, and barbeque grills
grease-free and make sure they are properly installed
away from combustible materials.
6. Keep portable heaters and open flames such as candles
away from combustible materials.
7. Do not allow rubbish to accumulate.
C. Develop a family escape plan and practice it with your
entire family, especially small children.
1. Draw a floor plan of your home and find two ways to exit
from each room. There should be one way to get out of
each bedroom without opening the door.
2. Teach children what the smoke alarm alarm signal
means, and that they must be prepared to leave the
residence by themselves if necessary. Show them how to
check to see if doors are hot before opening them, how to
stay close to the floor and crawl if necessary, and how to
use the alternate exit if a door is hot and should not be
opened.
3. Decide on a meeting place a safe distance from your
house and make sure that all your children understand
that they should go and wait for you there if there is a fire.
4. Hold fire drills at least every 6 months to make sure that
everyone, even small children, knows what to do to
escape safely.
5. Know where to go to call the fire department from outside
your residence.
6. Provide emergency equipment such as fire extinguishers
and teach your family to use this equipment properly.

A. Don’t panic; stay calm. Your safe escape may depend on
thinking clearly and remembering what you have practiced.
B. Get out of the house following a planned escape route as
quickly a possible. Do not stop to collect valuables or to get
dressed.
C. Open doors carefully only after feeling them to see if they are
hot. Do not open a door if it is hot; use an alternate escape
route.
D. Stay close to the floor; smoke and hot gases rise.
E. Cover your nose and mouth with a cloth, wet if possible, and
take short shallow breaths.
F. Keep doors and windows closed unless you open them to
escape.
G. Meet at your prearranged meeting place after leaving the
house.
H. Call the Fire Department as soon as possible from outside
your house. Give the address and your name.
I. Never re-enter a burning building.
Contact your local Fire Department for more information on
making your home safer from fires and about preparing your
family’s escape plans.
