• Maximum alarm coverage has been determined by UL to provide detection time
equal to sprinkler devices spaced at 10 foot intervals (100 square foot area) on a
smooth ceiling 15 ft. x 8 in. high. Higher ceilings can adversely affect detection
time. In some instances, earlier detection may be obtained by reducing the spacing
between detectors. See the latest edition of NFPA 72, National Fire Alarm Code.
• Maximum distance is from any wall partition or ceiling projection extending down
more than 12 in.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
PLEASE READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This heat alarm requires constant 120 Volt AC power AND a working
9 Volt battery to operate properly. This heat alarm WILL NOT work
if AC power is not connected or has failed or has been interrupted
for any reason AND the batteries removed, drained or improperly
connected.  DO NOT use any other kind of battery except as
specified in this manual. DO NOT connect this heat alarm to any
other type of smoke alarm or heat alarm or auxiliary device, except
those listed in this manual.
• This heat alarm should be installed only by a licensed, qualified electrician. Observe
and follow all local and national electrical building codes for installation.
• Heat alarms should be interconnected with smoke alarms in order to provide early
warning of heat, smoke or fire. In addition, smoke alarms should be installed in
every bedroom and on every level of the home.
• Heat alarms interconnected with smoke alarms may not alert every household
member every time. The alarm horn of the heat alarm and smoke alarm is loud in
order to alert individuals of a potential danger. However, there may be limiting
circumstances where a household member may not hear the alarm (i.e. outdoor or
indoor noise, sound sleepers, drug or alcohol use, the hearing impaired, etc.). If
you suspect that your heat alarm or smoke alarm may not alert a household member,
install and maintain specialty smoke alarms. Household members must hear the
alarm's warning sound and quickly respond to it to reduce the risk of damage, injury
or death that may result from fire. This heat alarm cannot be interconnected with
specialty smoke alarms unless specified in this manual.
• Heat alarms should be used to provide an added source of information and
supplement smoke alarm installation. Some fires are slow, smoldering, low heat-
producing or are in a different room than the heat alarm, or the heat from the fire
may bypass the alarm. This heat alarm will not always detect this type of fire.
• The push-to-test button accurately tests all heat alarm functions. For temperatures
that are below minus 10
o
F, use a handheld hair dryer and blow hot air into the heat
alarm to test. DO NOT use any other test method. Test heat alarm weekly to ensure
proper operation.
• This heat alarm is designed to be used inside a single family household only. In
multi-family buildings, each individual living unit should have its own heat alarm.
Do not install in non-residential buildings or places which house many people like
hotels, motels, dormitories, hospitals, nursing homes or group homes of any kind.
This heat alarm is not a substitute for a complete alarm system.
• Interconnected heat alarms and smoke alarms offer maximum protection. The
National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA) recommends interconnecting heat alarms
and smoke alarms so that when one unit senses heat, smoke or fire and sounds its
alarm, all others will sound as well. Do not interconnect heat alarms or smoke
alarms from one individual family living unit to another. Do not connect this heat
alarm to any other type of alarm (except those stated in this manual) or auxiliary
device.
