AUTOMATIC POWER
ENGAGE

an internal lithium-ion power pack. To avoid
unnecessary use of the power pack prior to
installation, and to ease disposal when the alarm
reaches the end of its life, the alarm is supplied
with the power pack in a deactivated state. The
power pack is automatically enabled when the
alarm is correctly attached to the mounting plate.
WARNING: This automatic power
engage system only applies to the
following 10 year smoke alarms:
SI-610
SO-610
WSI-610
WSO-610
IMPORTANT: Your alarm will not
work until it is correctly located and
secured on the mounting plate.

SENSOR TECHNOLOGY
There are two main types of smoke alarm. The
SI-610 Standard Smoke Alarm uses an ionisation
type sensor to detect the presence of smoke.
Ionisation type smoke alarms are generally more
effective at detecting fast, aming res which
consume combustible materials rapidly and spread
re quickly.The SO-610 Toast Proof Smoke Alarm
uses an optical (photoelectric) type sensor which
is more effective at detecting slow burning res,
which can smoulder for hours before bursting into
ames.
TOAST PROOF = less sensitive to cooking
fumes. (Optical alarms are less prone to
nuisance alarms due to cooking fumes.)
For maximum protection, use both types of
smoke alarm on each level of your home
The mounting plate includes a small magnet as
illustrated below. Ensure the magnet is in position
prior to attaching the alarm. Your 10 year alarm
has been designed to prevent installation on a
mounting plate that has had the magnet removed.

APPLICATION
WARNING: Your FireAngel smoke
alarm can be installed into a new
build property as additional protection to
an existing smoke detection system only. It
cannot be used as a substitute for a hard wired
system as required in new build properties. In
this type of property the building regulations
require alarms to be interlinked. You can
obtain further information from your local re
service or building control department at your
local council ofces. These sources generally
provide advice on new builds or projects that
require planning permission.
Your smoke alarm typically meets the minimum
requirements for family living units in existing
buildings, as long as at least one unit is installed on
each oor/level of your property.
In order to achieve the earliest re warning, we
recommend that a smoke alarm is tted in all rooms
where the temperature is normally between 4°C
(40°F) and 38°C (100°F).The type of smoke alarm
used in each location should be appropriate to the
environment. Check the section on ‘Positioning’ to
ensure that the smoke alarm is to be correctly
positioned for the particular dwelling into which it
is intended to be installed.
WARNING: The alarm positions
shown overleaf are based on typical
homes. Construction and layout of individual
dwellings will vary, so this should be regarded
only as a guide. Check with your local re
station for further guidance.

MINIMUM RECOMMENDATIONS
RECOMMENDED FOR ADDITIONAL PROTECTION
EXISTING HOMES
NOTE: Kitchens should be covered by a
self contained heat detector.
6
Multi-family or mixed occupant residence
(Tenancy building, student accommodation)
Your FireAngel smoke alarm can also be used in
individual ats and bedsits, providing the same
conditions are met as for a single-family residence.
However, there must already be a primary
re detection system that meets regulatory
requirements for common areas such as lobbies
and hallways.
Institutions and Hotels
This includes motels, hospitals, day care facilities,
long-term health care facilities, boarding houses
and dormitories. Your smoke alarm can be used
in individual sleeping/resident rooms, providing
the same conditions are met as for a single-
family residence. However, there must already
be a primary re detection system that meets
regulatory requirements for common areas such
as lobbies and hallways. Use of this smoke alarm
in common areas may not provide sufcient
re warning to residents or meet regulatory
requirements.
This smoke alarm is designed to operate as
standalone smoke alarm.
WARNING: This FireAngel smoke
alarm will not communicate with other
smoke alarms or re alarm systems. It is not
intended as a substitute for a complete alarm
system.
Mobile Homes and Caravans
This smoke alarm is suitable for use in mobile
homes and caravans.
Commercial and Industrial Premises
This smoke alarm is not intended for any non-
residential, commercial or industrial application,
nor for any other purpose than described above.

POSITIONING
Ionisation type smoke alarms are generally
more effective at detecting fast, aming res which
consume combustable materials rapidly and
spread re quickly.
Examples of fast aming res = Ignited paper,
aming curtains, oil re
Optical (Toast Proof) smoke alarms are
less prone to false alarms from cooking fumes,
are therefore suitable for locations near kitchens.
However optical smoke alarms are more
susceptible to nuisance alarms from steam and
should not be located too close to bathrooms
and showers.
Examples of slow smouldering res = cigarette on
furniture and bedding, overheating electrical cables.
It is recommended that your FireAngel smoke
alarm is NOT to be tted in the following
locations:
• Bathrooms, shower-rooms, and other very
damp or humid areas, where the moisture can
cause unwanted alarms.
• Kitchens. Kitchens should be protected with
self-contained Heat Alarms, as the combustion
particles from cooking in kitchens will
result in unwanted alarms and permanent
contamination of the smoke alarm’s sensor.
• In areas where excessive dust or dirt could
contaminate the sensing chamber, making it
over sensitive or impairing smoke entry.
• In areas where the ambient temperature is not
controlled and may regularly drift below 4°C
(40°F) or above 38°C (100°F) e.g. unheated
buildings, open attic spaces.
• Very dirty, dusty or greasy areas.
• In very draughty areas, such as close to ceiling
fans or fresh air vents. Draughts can blow
smoke away from the alarm.
• In insect infested areas. Insects can clog
openings to the sensing chamber, preventing
smoke entry or causing unwanted alarms.
8
• Within 30cm (12”) of a uorescent light tting
which emits electrical ‘noise’ that can prevent
correct alarm operation.
• In wall positions that are more than 30cm
(12”) away from the ceiling (see ‘How to install
your smoke alarm’).
• In ‘dead air’ spaces (see following diagram).
• Within 30cm (12”) of light ttings or other
ceiling based obstructions.

WHAT ARE THE
LIMITATIONS OF MY SMOKE
ALARM?
Your FireAngel smoke alarm is designed to alert
you by sounding an alarm when it senses smoke,
i.e. it can only sense smoke and alert you if smoke
reaches it! If a re develops in an area remote from
the location of the smoke alarm, such as another
room or another level, smoke may not reach the
smoke alarm in sufcient time or quantity to sense
and alert you to the danger.
We recommend that as a minimum you install
both ionisation and optical smoke alarms on
every oor of your property. For comprehensive
coverage a smoke alarm should also be tted in
every room.
This smoke alarm cannot be used to provide
primary re detection in common areas used
by different residents such as blocks of ats and
hotels.The FireAngel smoke alarm may not alarm
before a re causes damage, injury or death, as the
smoke may not reach the smoke alarm in time.
Examples include smoking in bed and violent gas
explosions.This smoke alarm may not respond in
a reasonable time if it is not installed in the best
position, or if furniture or other obstacles are
located between the smoke alarm and the re.
WARNING: Your smoke alarm will
not operate without sufcient power.
As the alarm power pack reaches the end of its life
a low power warning chirp will be emitted every
40 seconds. When this occurs you must replace
the unit within 7 days.
