2. INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on purchasing Ei405 Radio Smoke Alarms.
You can easily install these alarms throughout the house in
closed rooms, corridors and in the attic for the fastest
response to developing fires.
Closed doors are great for slowing down the spread of fire,
but unfortunately they can also greatly slow down the
response time of alarms, as they block the smoke getting to
them. Without interconnection, closed doors also greatly
reduce the alarm sound level throughout the house, so even
though the fire is detected early, the alarm may not be heard.
The Ei405 Radio Smoke Alarms offer the comfort of intercon-
nection without the hassle of installing the interconnect wires.
The wireless interconnect helps ensure the alarm will be
heard everywhere - including most importantly, the bedrooms.
The wireless interconnect will operate as received once the
batteries are connected. To check operation, first connect all
the batteries (see section 1) and then hold down the test but-
ton on the first unit until the blue light comes on continuously
for 3.5 seconds. All the other smoke alarms will respond with-
in 5 seconds. If there is any possibility of a neighbour having
a similar system, you should program your units so your sys-
tem will not cause his/hers to alarm or vice versa. This is eas-
ily done and only takes a few minutes- see below (section 6.3).
A remote control Ei410 is available to allow you to test and
hush the alarms, without having to reach up to the smoke
alarms on high ceilings. The remote control also has a
"Locate" button to identify the unit causing the alarm - this is
