USING, REGISTERING, TESTING AND MAINTENANCE:
Using: The moment the detector comes into contact with smoke or fumes, the alarm will go off. When the smoke or fumes disappear, the alarm will
automatically stop.
Time-out function:
This function disables the alarm for 9 minutes. This feature can only be activated when there is smoke, by pressing the button once briefly. The red
indicator light, will light up briefly every 7 seconds to indicate that the sound has been temporarily suppressed. After 9 minutes or as soon as the
smoke is gone the status will be restored.
If there is still smoke, the alarm will be reactivated. In case there is no smoke present the SA211 will go to standby mode, it is now possible to test the
SA211 again.
Test:
The alarm is very loud (>85dB). We recommend using hearing protection when testing the smoke detectors. By pressing the test button on the
SA211 the alarm can be tested.
Press the test button for at least 5 seconds. Operation is correct for 2 or 3 signal tones. Then the alarm is still working correctly.
If a detector's test does not work, replace the Smoke Alarm.
The test function does not work if the time-out function is enabled. Check the detectors every week. In alarm status, the smoke detectors generate at
least 85dB(A) of sound pressure. Do not test the smoke detectors with candles, open flames, cigarettes, or the like.
ATTENTION:
If there are questions about the cause of an ALARM, assume that the alarm is caused by a fire and immediately evacuate the home.
Keep smoke detectors out of the reach of children.
During construction and renovation work, protect the smoke detectors from dust. Without protection, the smoke detectors lose their functionality.
Maintenance: The smoke detector is maintenance-free. In very dusty rooms they may be cleaned by vacuum.
Plan an escape route:
•
Make a map and mark all locations of doors and windows and a possible escape route. Note that you may need an escape ladder on high floors.
•
Ensure everyone in the house knows the sound the smoke alarms produce and regularly practice use of the escape route.
•
Leave the house immediately according to the plan when hearing the alarm. Every second counts: so respond quickly. If you do not notice smoke or heat,
check if everyone in the house is in a secure location.
•
Do not open any doors without feeling wether the door is warm or if there is smoke coming from underneath the doors. If it is, do not open that
door. If the door is cold, put your shoulder firmly against the door and open it a small amount to check for any heat or smoke first.
If there is much smoke, keep low and take shallow breaths, preferably through a moist towel. Call the fire department as soon as you are safe
outside.
Environment:
If the built-in battery is low, the device will beep every 49 seconds. This sound will continue for a minimum of 30 days. This means that the product has
