The unit can be quickly removed from the program mode by
holding down the Test & Locate buttons simultaneously.
(The house coding can be removed, if necessary, from the
remote control by first disconnecting the battery for 10 sec-
onds and then reconnecting the battery while holding down
both the Test & Locate buttons).
6.5 Power Indicator Light.
The Smoke Alarm has a red Power Indicator Light which
flashes once a minute to show the Smoke Alarm is powered.
Check regularly. Replace the Smoke Alarm if the flashing
stops.
6.6 Hush Feature
These smoke alarms have a silencer feature to help you con-
trol nuisance false alarms.
1. To cancel a false alarm, press the test & hush button. The
alarm will automatically switch to a reduced sensitivity condi-
tion. This condition allows unwanted alarms to be silenced for
a period of approximately 10 minutes. The red light will flash
every 10 seconds (instead of 40 seconds) to let you know the
unit has been silenced. It can also be silenced using the Hush
Button on the optional remote control Ei 410, provided it is
sensing smoke itself.
2. The unit will reset to normal sensitivity at the end of the
silenced period. If additional silenced time is required, simply
push the test button again.
3. If the cause of the alarm is not clear, it should be assumed
that it is due to an actual fire and the dwelling should be
evacuated immediately.
If kitchen usage/layout is such that there are an unacceptable
level of nuisance alarms, re-locate the Smoke Alarm further
away where it will be less affected by cooking fumes etc.
6.7 Cleaning your Smoke Alarm
Clean your Smoke Alarm regularly. Use a soft bristle brush or
the brush attachment of your vacuum cleaner to remove dust
and cobwebs from the sides and cover slots where the smoke
enters. Keep cover closed while cleaning. Do not vacuum or
brush inside the Smoke Alarm.
WARNING: Do not paint your Smoke Alarm.
Other than the maintenance and cleaning described in this
leaflet, no other customer servicing of this product is required.
