2. Important Information
This alarm is designed for installation by a qualified electrician, in accordance
with the latest I.E.E. Regulations and in regard to relevant Building
Regulations/BS Codes of Practice.
• Hard wired smoke or heat alarms require a constant 230V AC supply.
Battery Back-up models additionally require a healthy battery too.
•
A healthy mains supply is indicated by a constant green L.E.D. (mains) indicator.
• Test the alarm weekly by pressing (and holding) the test button.
The alarm and all those interconnected to it will sound.
• Vacuum your alarms regularly to reduce the likelihood of nuisance alarms,
caused by dust contamination.
• Never paint or expose alarm to water – this is a 230V alarm.
(If painting or building work is being carried out close to alarm, temporarily
cover with a plastic bag, or the dust cover supplied.)
•
If the alarm chirps every 30-40 seconds, it indicates the battery needs replacing.
(If you are in rented property, advise your Landlord.)
Smoke and heat alarms will only function if properly selected, located,
installed and maintained as per KIDDE Fyrnetics instruction manuals.
