Smoke detector

Art. no. 32-1988, 32-3381, 32-3382,

32-3383

Placing of smoke

detector

Do not put asmoke detector in the

following places

• Do not place asmoke detector in akitchen

with poor ventilation. Smoke and fumes from

thepreparation of food and baking can trigger

thealarm.

• Do not place smoke detector near fans or

ventilation conduits. Smoke could drift in their

direction instead of toward thesmoke detector.

• Do not place asmoke detector in agarage.

A car’s exhaust may trigger analarm.

• Do not place asmoke detector in very damp

spaces or aspace exposed to broad temperature

variations. A smoke detector should not be placed

in anarea where thetemperature is below 5 °C or

above 40 °C.

A smoke detector should not be painted.

Assembly

Test and care

1. Test thesmoke detector at least once every

month, and preferably once per week, e.g.,

when you house clean.

2. Always test thesmoke detector after returning

from holidays or after being away for aprolonged

period. The smoke detector can be tested with

thetest button or by blowing alittle smoke

toward thesmoke detector.

3. The smoke detector sounds as long as thetest

button is pressed down or as long as there is

smoke in it.

4. Make sure thebattery is correctly positioned. Replace

battery if thesmoke detector makes no noise.

5. Below thetest button is ared diode that blinks

1–2 times per minute. It shows that thesmoke

detector is working.

6. Wipe thesurface of thesmoke detector with

amoist cloth when needed. When cleaning

house, thesmoke detector may be vacuumed

slightly as you do house cleaning.

Switching off thealarm sound

(model 32-3383)

When asmoke detector is placed in, say, akitchen

thealarm may be sometimes set off unintentionally.

The alarm sound can then be shut off for about ten

minutes by pressing on thetest button. Two signals

are heard when thesmoke detector returns again to

its normal state.

Changing batteries

A battery lasts for about one year. About one month

before thebattery is completely discharged, thesmoke

detector will start to emit short signals at about

one-half minute intervals. It is then time to replace

thebattery. Once this is done thedetector will start

working again.

Battery: 9 V standard or alkaline battery, e.g.,

Duracell MN 1604, Eveready no. 522, 1222 or 216,

Gold Peak 1604 P.

Always test smoke thedetector after replacing

thebattery.

Where should I place my smoke detector? Verified

This depends on the situation, but in a home it is best to place at least one smoke detector on every floor. Try to place them in hallways or other spaces that connect different rooms and never place the smoke detector directly next to a kitchen or bathroom. Also keep at least 30 centimeters of space between a smoke detector and a lamp.

Can I use candles if I have a smoke detector? Verified

This partially depends on the sensitivity of the smoke detector. In many cases a candle can be used as long as it is not placed in direct proximity of the smoke detector. When blowing out the candles, smoke can be generated that might trigger the smoke detector.
