A maximum of 250 metres (820ft) of 18 AWG (0.82mm) wire can
be used, (maximum resistance between detectors 50 ohm). The
units are interconnected by wiring all the terminals marked 1 to-
gether, and all the terminals marked 2 together, as shown in Fig-
ure 10. An opening should be made in the label covering the
wiring hole in the base, and the wires routed into the unit as
shown. Note that the wiring inside the unit must be kept clear of
the test button contacts, but must not impede the air flow. Drafts
from wiring openings, conduit, or mounting boxes/holes, may
blow smoke away from the sensing chamber, making it insensi-
tive. It is essential that all such openings be closed by silicone
sealant or similar.

These Smoke Alarms should be interconnected only within the
confines of a single family living unit. If they are connected be-

This model has a special false alarm silencer feature to help you
control nuisance false alarms.

1. To cancel a false alarm, press the Silencer Button located on
the lower right-hand corner. The Alarm will automatically switch
to a reduced sensitivity condition. This condition allows un-
wanted alarms to be silenced for a period of approximately 8
minutes. The unit will continue to “chirp” about every 40 seconds
during this time to let you know the unit has been silenced.

Smoke Alarms will not work if the batteries are depleted or if

Smoke Alarms will not detect fire if sufficient smoke does not
reach the alarm. Smoke may be prevented from reaching the
Alarm if the fire is too far away, for example, if the fire is on an-
other floor, behind a closed door, in a chimney, in a wall cav-
ity, or if the prevailing air drafts carry the smoke away.
Installing smoke alarms on both sides of closed doors and in-
stalling more than one smoke alarm as recommended in this

ample petrol, paint, spirits etc), overloaded electrical circuits,
arson, children playing with matches.

Planning your Escape for when the Alarm goes off
Use the Smoke Alarm Test Button to familiarize your family with
the Alarm sound and to practice fire drills regularly with all family
members. Draw up a floor plan that will show each member at
least 2 escape routes from each room in the house. Children
tend to hide when they don’t know what to do. Teach children
how to escape, open windows, and use roll up fire ladders and
stools without adult help. Make sure they know what to do if the
alarm goes off - see next page.

1. Check room doors for heat or smoke.
Do not open a hot door. Use an alternate
escape route. Close doors behind you as
you leave.

2. If smoke is heavy, crawl out, staying
close to floor. Take short breaths, if pos-
sible, through a wet cloth or hold your
breath. More people die from smoke in-
halation than from flames.
