4. While the EL-2662 is in Test mode, set the receiver to Registration mode and wait for the receiver to indicate that the
transmitter has been registered successfully. Write the number of the zone and the transmitter number (if applicable)
on the sticker provided. Affix the sticker inside the front cover for future reference. Note: Alternatively, the EL-2662 can
be registered to the receiver by manually entering the transmitter's serial number.
5. Remove the Test jumper and place it over one pin for storage. Test mode is limited to four minutes. After the four
minutes have expired, the detector switches back to normal operation. If this happens, you can reset Test mode by
removing and replacing the Test jumper.
6. Choose a mounting location according to the guidelines in the previous section.
7. Test the transmitter to determine the suitability of your chosen mounting location. To do so, place the transmitter in the
exact mounting position and insert the Test jumper making certain that the transmissions are successfully received. If
necessary, relocate the transmitter to a better position and repeat the test. After testing, remove the Test jumper and
place it over one pin for storage.
8. Connect a 12V AC-DC transformer to the power input terminal block (J6) (polarity is not important). Thread the
transformer’s wires via the wire brace and tighten the two screws for strain relief.
9. Close the top cover with the transformer’s wires protruding from the unit (there is a small notch in the cover adjacent to the wire
brace that is intended for this purpose). Ensure that the Power LED is inserted properly into place.
10. Attach the EL-2662 to the wall with the supplied screws.
11. Connect the transformer to an AC outlet. The green LED indicator provides a
permanent indication that the EL-2662 is receiving power. Please note that the
EL-2662 only starts operating (i.e. detects gas) approximately 15 minutes after
power is applied. Note: During normal operation, both the detector and transmitter
are powered by the 12V power source. The 3.6V battery provides backup to the
transmitter only and the EL-2662 will not detect gas if the 12V power source is cut off.
Maintenance and Testing
The EL-2662 comes pre-calibrated and requires no further adjustments. Once a month, clean
around the area of the unit with a vacuum cleaner or soft brush. The gas alarm can be tested
using a butane cigarette lighter as a gas source. Position the lighter’s gas nozzle close to the
front of the detector. Without rotating the flint wheel, press the lighter’s gas release button for a
few seconds; the detector is activated and the buzzer sounds. Make certain the alarm can be
heard by all those who are meant to hear it. When the gas dissipates, the detector returns to
standby mode. Alternatively, the gas alarm can be tested by holding a piece of cotton wool
dipped in alcohol (not to wet!) close to the front of the detector.
What to do when Gas is Detected
When gas is detected, a rapid beeping indicates the alarm condition (one beep per second) and the EL-2662 notifies the
control panel of the detection.
• Extinguish all flames (cigarettes, pilot lights etc.).
• Open doors and windows.
• Do not touch any electrical switches.
• Do not unplug the EL-2662 gas alarm.
• Turn off the main gas valve and leave the
premises.
• Re-enter the premises only when the alarm stops
beeping, the odor clears and/or the gas company
indicates that it is safe.
Troubleshooting
Trouble Signal – The EL-2662 gas alarm emits a trouble signal (one beep per 5 seconds) under the following conditions:
a) The voltage is lower than required. Check your outlet by plugging in another appliance and checking its operation. If the
outlet is not faulty and the gas alarm does not respond to the lighter test, replace the unit.
b) The sensor has malfunctioned – replace the unit!
c) The green Power LED is off. If the unit responds to the lighter test, the LED is burnt out – replace the unit!
False Alarms – If the alarm is activated in response to non-gas fumes (alcohol, hairspray, deodorant, paint, thinner, cleaning
fluids etc.) make certain to thoroughly ventilate the area.
