1. Safety instructions
Note:
The alarm sound is very noisy! Your hearing can be damaged if you are exposed to the
loud alarm sound over a longer period of time!
Please do not paint over the smoke alarm detector with paint or similar!
Do not install the detector in difficult to access areas! The detector must be checked regularly
for its function!
Caution:
Never test the smoke alarm detector with an open flame, e.g. by a candle or a
lighter! This will damage the built-in sensor!
Get rid of the smoke alarms regularly (at least every six months) of dust and other deposits of
dirt! Please use a paint brush or a slightly cloth moistened with water. In dusty conditions, the
smoke alarm detector should be cleaned monthly.
This product is only suited for indoor-use and not for outdoor-use. Protect it against humidity
and moisture, splashing or dripping!
Damaged smoke alarm detectors must be replaced immediately!
2. Mounting location in rooms of the smoke alarm detectors
2.1 Smoke alarm detectors should be installed in the following rooms:
Bedrooms
: If several bedrooms are in the house, then the attachment of smoke alarm
detectors in each bedroom are advised.
Corridors and stairways
: Because stairwells easily serve as chimneys for smoke and fire, they
contribute to the further spreading. Therefore it is recommended to install on each floor at
least one smoke alarm detector!
Living and working rooms as well as storage areas.
Cellar and attic space
: With the attic space a distance should be kept to the roof point of at
least 50 cm (see Figure 1).
