Ei Electronics Ei166RC Smoke Alarm User Manual


 
• Smoke / Heat Alarms may not detect every type of fire to
give sufficient early warning.
• Fire Authorities recommend that both Optical and Ionisation
Smoke Alarms should be fitted for the fastest response to all
types of fires.
• Smoke / Heat Alarms don’t last indefinitely. For example if
there is a build up of contamination, performance will be
impaired.
It is recommended that the Smoke / Heat Alarms are replaced
after 10 years as a precaution.
