TM
CONTROL: The Smart HUSH
TM
feature has the capability of temporarily desensitizing the smoke sensing circuitry
for approximately 7 minutes to quiet your alarm while taking care of a non-emergency event. This feature is to be used only when a
known alarm condition, such as smoke from cooking, activates the alarm. The smoke alarm is desensitized by pushing the Smart
HUSH
known alarm condition, such as smoke from cooking, activates the alarm. The smoke alarm is desensitized by pushing the Smart
HUSH
TM
button on the smoke alarm cover. If the smoke is not too dense, the alarm will silence immediately and the green LED will
blink every 2 seconds for approximately 7 minutes. This indicates that the alarm is in a temporarily desensitized condition. The smoke
alarm will automatically reset after approximately 7 minutes and sound the alarm if particles of combustion are still present. The
Smart HUSH
alarm will automatically reset after approximately 7 minutes and sound the alarm if particles of combustion are still present. The
Smart HUSH
TM
feature can be used repeatedly until the air has been cleared of the condition causing the alarm. Pushing the test button
on the alarm will end the Hush period.
Remote HUSH: Press the button on any wireless device to activate the Smart Hush® on a wireless smoke alarm that is initiating an
alarm. This allows you to enable the Smart HUSH™ feature on a Kidde Wireless smoke alarm that may be installed in an area that is
difficult to reach. This feature should only be used when a known alarm condition, such as smoke from cooking, activates the alarm.
Low Battery Hush: When the batteries need to be replaced, the unit will produce a low battery “chirp” once per minute. The Low
Battery HUSH allows you to press the button on the alarm producing the warning and disable the “chirp” for up to 12 hours. This
gives you a chance to replace the battery at a more convenient time without sacrificing your safety by disconnecting the alarm from
power. During this Low Battery HUSH period your alarm is performing normally and is not desensitized.
NOTE: DENSE SMOKE WILL OVERRIDE THE HUSH
