SMOKE & FIRE ALARM WITH

SILENCE FEATURE AND ALARM ORIGINATION FEATURE

Page 2

SMOKE ALARM LIMITATIONS AND FUNCTIONS

There are three basic smoke alarm types: IoPhic , Ionization and Photoelectric.

IoPhic is an ionization alarm containing a patent-pending Universal Smoke Sensing Technology.

IoPhic alarms are very effective at detecting fast flaming fires and also respond very quickly to

slow smoldering fires - up to 87% faster than the maximum allowable alarm limit (UL217 Smoldering

Smoke Test on 5/26/2010, Underwriters Laboratories Project #09CA38078).

Ionization smoke alarms are typically more effective at detecting fast flaming fires - fires which consume

combustible materials rapidly and spread quickly. Sources of these fires may include paper burning in a

wastebasket, or kitchen grease fires.

Photoelectric smoke alarms, on the other hand, are typically more effective at detecting slow smoldering

fires - fires which burn for hours before bursting into flame. Sources of these fires may include cigarettes

burning in couches or bedding.

Installing IoPhic smoke alarms ensures maximum detection of both types of fires from a single alarm,

while eliminating the need for a combination of ionization and photoelectric smoke alarms.

The enclosed alarm is a Photoelectric smoke alarm.

SMOKE ALARMS WILL NOT WORK DURING A LOSS OF POWER. SINCE A SMOKE ALARM WILL

NOT WORK WITHOUT POWER, having an alarm(s) that works from two completely different power

sources, such as an AC direct wire with battery backup smoke alarm, can give you an extra measure of

protection in case of an AC power failure or a dead battery. Battery operated alarms cannot work if the

batteries are missing, disconnected or dead, if the wrong type of batteries are used or if the batteries are

not installed correctly. AC (only) powered alarms cannot work if the AC power is cut off for any reason. If

you are concerned about the limitations of the battery or AC power, install both types of alarms.

USING AN IONIZATION SMOKE ALARM IN A SMOKY AREA, SUCH AS A KITCHEN, OR IN A HIGH

HUMIDITY AREA NEAR A SHOWER, CAN CAUSE NUISANCE FALSE ALARMS. IT IS PREFERABLE

TO USE PHOTOELECTRIC ALARMS IN THESE AREAS. DO NOT TURN OFF THE AC POWER TO

QUIET THE ALARM. A SMOKE ALARM WILL NOT HELP PROTECT YOU IF IT IS NOT POWERED.

Properly locate your alarm to avoid nuisance alarms.

A SMOKE ALARM MAY NOT ALWAYS WARN YOU ABOUT FIRES CAUSED BY CARELESSNESS

AND SAFETY HAZARDS LIKE SMOKING IN BED, VIOLENT EXPLOSIONS, ESCAPING GAS,

IMPROPER STORAGE OF FLAMMABLE MATERIALS, OVERLOADED ELECTRICAL CIRCUITS,

CHILDREN PLAYING WITH MATCHES, NATURAL CAUSES SUCH AS LIGHTNING, OR ARSON. FIRE

PREVENTION IS YOUR BEST SAFEGUARD.

INSTALLING SMOKE ALARMS MAY MAKE YOU ELIGIBLE FOR LOWER INSURANCE RATES, BUT

SMOKE ALARMS ARE NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR INSURANCE. Homeowners and renters alike should

continue to insure their lives and properties.

SMOKE ALARMS CANNOT DETECT FIRES IF THE SMOKE DOES NOT REACH THEM. Smoke from

fires may not reach the sensing chamber and set off the alarm. One alarm should be installed inside each

bedroom or sleeping area. Do not obstruct airflow around the smoke alarm or place in areas of obstructed

airflow.

BE AWARE OF VARIOUS SITUATIONS AGAINST WHICH THE SMOKE ALARM MAY NOT BE

EFFECTIVE. For example: (1) Fires where the victim is intimate with a flaming initiated fire; for example,

when a person's clothes catch fire while cooking; (2) Fires where the smoke is prevented from reaching

the alarm due to a closed door or other obstruction or (3) Incendiary fires where the fire grows so rapidly

that an occupant's egress is blocked even with properly located alarms.

SMOKE ALARMS MAY NOT DETECT FIRE ON ANOTHER FLOOR OR AREA OF THE HOME.

Recommended minimum protection is at least one smoke alarm in every sleeping area and every bedroom

on every level of your home. Interconnected smoke alarms may provide earlier warning than stand-alone

smoke alarms since all smoke alarms alarm when one detects smoke.

SMOKE ALARMS MAY NOT BE HEARD. The alarm horn in this alarm meets or exceeds current standards,

but it may not be heard if: (1) the smoke alarm is located outside a closed or partially closed door; (2)

residents recently consumed alcohol or drugs; (3) the alarm is drowned out by noise from stereos, TV's,

air conditioners or other appliances; (4) residents are hearing impaired or (5) if residents are sleeping.

CURRENT STUDIES HAVE SHOWN SMOKE ALARMS MAY NOT AWAKEN ALL SLEEPING

INDIVIDUALS AND THAT IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF INDIVIDUALS IN THE HOUSEHOLD WHO

ARE CAPABLE OF ASSISTING OTHERS TO PROVIDE ASSISTANCE TO THOSE WHO MAY NOT BE

AWAKENED BY THE ALARM SOUND OR TO THOSE WHO MAY BE INCAPABLE OF SAFELY

EVACUATING THE AREA UNASSISTED.

SMOKE ALARMS ARE NOT FOOLPROOF. You must test the smoke alarm weekly to ensure your

continued protection. Smoke alarms cannot prevent or extinguish fires.

SMOKE ALARMS HAVE A LIMITED LIFE. The smoke alarm should be replaced immediately if it is not

operating properly. You should always replace a smoke alarm after 10 years.

SMOKE ALARMS ARE NOT TO BE USED WITH DETECTOR GUARDS UNLESS THE COMBINATION

HAS BEEN EVALUATED AND FOUND SUITABLE FOR THAT PURPOSE.

RECOMMENDED LOCATION OF ALARMS

• Locate the first smoke alarm in the immediate area of the bedrooms. Try to protect the escape

route as the bedrooms are usually farthest from an exit. If more than one sleeping area exists,

locate additional smoke alarms in each sleeping area. If a hall is more than 40 feet (12 meters)

long, install a smoke alarm at each end.

• Locate additional smoke alarms to protect any stairway as stairways act like chimneys for

smoke and heat.

• Locate at least one smoke alarm on every floor level.

• Locate a smoke alarm in any area where a smoker sleeps or where electrical appliances are

operated in sleeping areas.

• Smoke, heat and other combustion products rise to the ceiling and spread horizontally. Mounting

the smoke alarm on the ceiling in the center of the room places it closest to all points in the room.

Ceiling mounting is preferred in ordinary residential construction. However, in mobile homes, wall

mounting on an inside partition is preferred to avoid the thermal barrier that may form at the ceiling.

• When mounting smoke alarm on the ceiling, locate it a minimum of 4" (10cm) from a side wall or

corner (see Diagram A).

• When mounting smoke alarm on a wall, if local codes allow, use an inside wall with the top edge

of the smoke alarm a minimum of 4" (10cm) and a maximum of 12" (30.5cm) below the ceiling/

wall intersections (See Diagram A).

Page 3

Sloped Ceilings (Peaked Ceilings):

Smoke alarms or smoke detectors mounted on a peaked ceiling shall be located within 36 in. (914 mm)

horizontally of the peak, but not closer than 4 in. (102 mm) vertically to the peak.

Sloped Ceilings (Shed Ceilings):

Smoke alarms or smoke detectors mounted on a sloped ceiling having a rise greater than 1 ft. in 8 ft. (1 m

in 8 m) horizontally shall be located within 36 in. (914 mm) of the high side of the ceiling, but not closer

than 4 in. (102 mm) from the adjoining wall surface.

Tray-Shaped Ceilings:

Smoke Alarms or smoke detectors shall be installed on the highest portion of the ceiling or on the sloped

portion of the ceiling within 12 in. (305 mm) vertically down from the highest point.

Mobile Home Installation:

For minimum protection, smoke alarms should be installed in compliance with H.U.D. Manufactured Home

Construction Safety Standards, Title 24 CFR, Section 3280.208 and Section 3282. For additional protection,

see Single Story Residence smoke alarm requirements/recommendations for Existing Homes and New

Construction Homes.

Note: For mobile homes built before 1978, install smoke alarms on inside walls between 4” and 12” from

the ceiling (older mobile homes have little or no insulation in the ceiling). This is especially important if the

ceiling is unusually hot or cold.

Install a smoke alarm inside each bedroom and in the hallway outside each separate sleeping area.

Existing Homes:

The NFPA requires a smoke alarm on every level and outside each sleeping area in existing construction.

An existing household with one level and one sleeping area is required to have one smoke alarm.

New Construction Homes and Manufactured Homes:

The NFPArequires AC-powered, interconnected smoke alarms to be installed inside each bedroom, outside

each bedroom area, and on every level of the home. They also require a minimum of two AC-powered,

interconnected smoke alarms in any new construction home.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS: CAUTION!! READ CAREFULLY.

CAUTION: THIS SMOKE ALARM IS SEALED. THE COVER IS NOT REMOVABLE!

• A mounting bracket is provided on the back of the alarm.

• Remove the mounting bracket from the back of the alarm by holding the mounting bracket and

twisting the alarm in the direction indicated by the "TWIST TO REMOVE" arrow on the side of the

alarm base.

OPTIONAL TAMPER RESISTANT FEATURES: There are two separate tamper resistant locking

features provided for this model. Activating one or both of these features deters someone from

removing the smoke alarm from the mounting bracket or removing the battery from the alarm. The

breakaway locking pins are clearly marked and molded into the mounting bracket. Refer to the

diagram on the next page.

TO ACTIVATE THE LOCKING FEATURES: Do not activate the locking features until you have

activated the battery, mounted the smoke alarm to the bracket and tested the smoke alarm. Refer to

OPERATION, TESTING & MAINTENANCE instructions on Page 6.

1. Detach the breakaway alarm locking pin from the mounting bracket.

AVOID THESE LOCATIONS

• the garage – products of combustion are produced when you start your vehicle.

• near appliances or areas where normal combustion regularly occurs (kitchens, near furnaces,

gas hot water heaters). Use smoke alarms with photoelectric sensors or smoke alarms with

Silence Feature for these areas.

• in areas with high humidity, like bathrooms or areas near dishwashers or washing machines.

Install at least 3 feet (0.9 meters) away from these areas.

• in areas of turbulent air such as air returns or heating and cooling supply vents, smoke alarms

shall not be located where airflow prevents smoke from reaching the alarms.

• in extremely dusty, dirty or insect-infested areas. Loose particles interfere with smoke alarm operation.

• in areas where temperature may fall below 400F (4.40C) or rise above 1000F (37.80C).

• closer than 1 foot (0.3m) from fluorescent lights, electrical "noise" and flickering may affect the

alarm's operation.

• closer than 3 feet (0.9m) horizontal path from the tip of the blade of a ceiling suspended (paddle) fan.

• on a poorly insulated ceiling or exterior wall (mount smoke alarm on an inside wall).

Page 4

Early warning fire detection is best achieved by the installation of fire detection equipment in

all rooms and areas of the household as follows: A smoke alarm installed in each separate

sleeping area (in the vicinity of, but outside of, the bedrooms); and, as appropriate, heat or

smokealarmsinlivingrooms, dining rooms, kitchens, hallways, attics, furnace rooms,closets,

utility storage rooms, basements and attached garages. Test the alarms weekly to assure

proper operation.

2. Insert the pin into the hole for the feature you are activating. Refer to the diagram below for

correct placement.

3. Push and twist the alarm clockwise onto the mounting bracket.

4. See "OPTIONAL TAMPER RESISTANT FEATURES" and "TO ACTIVATE THE LOCKING

FEATURES" instructions on Page 4.

5. The red LED blinks on every 40-45 seconds to indicate proper operation.

OPERATION, TESTING & MAINTENANCE

OPERATION: The smoke alarm is operating once the battery power is connected by removing the

pull-tab. When products of combustion are sensed, the alarm sounds a loud alarm which continues

until the air is cleared.

This alarm incorporates the NFPA recognized horn signal for evacuation. During alarm mode, the

horn produces three long beeps followed by a two second pause and then continually repeats.

READY/ACTIVE CONDITION: The red LED blinks on once approx. every 40-45 seconds to indicate

the alarm is properly functioning.

ALARM CONDITION: The red LED blinks on once approx. every second and the alarm emits a

loud, pulsating alarm sound.

NUISANCE ALARMS: The smoke alarm is designed to minimize nuisance alarms. Smoking will

not normally set off the alarm unless smoke is blown directly into the smoke alarm. Combustion

particles from cooking may set off the alarm if the smoke alarm is located close to the kitchen

cooking surface. Large quantities of combustion particles are generated from spills or broiling.

If the smoke alarm does sound, check for fires first. If a fire is discovered, get out and call the fire

department. If no fire is present, check to see if one of the reasons listed above may have caused

the alarm. Use the Silence Feature if it is a nuisance alarm, or reset the alarm by pressing and

holding the test button for ten seconds. Refer to RESET below.

NOTE: It is best to "reset" the alarms before initial test is performed. See below for Reset instructions.

TESTING: Test by pushing the Test button on the smoke alarm cover until the alarm sounds, then

release. The alarm sounds if all electronic circuitry, horn and battery are working. If no alarm sounds,

the alarm may have a power supply failure. Testthesmokealarm weeklytoassure proper operation.

RV INSTALLATION

WARNING: TEST SMOKE ALARM OPERATION AFTER VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN STORAGE,

BEFORE EACH TRIPAND AT LEAST ONCE PER WEEK DURING USE. An identical marking is to

be provided by the recreational vehicle manufacturer that shall be permanent and located visibly,

within 24 inches (810mm) of the smoke alarm.

ALARMORIGINATION:The QUICK FIND®feature will allow you to immediately locate the originating

alarm (once the alarm has stopped sounding). To initiate QUICK FIND®, press the Test/Silence

button on each alarm. After releasing the button, the originating alarm will continue to sound for

approx. 60 seconds. In a non-interconnected installation, it is necessary to test each alarm to

determine the originating alarm.

RESET: To reset the QUICK FIND®Alarm Origination Mode - Hold the Test/Silence button for

approx. 10 seconds, or temporarily remove (and then replace) the battery. This will clear

alarm origination indicator.

END-OF-SERVICE LIFE NOTIFICATION: A majority of home fire deaths are a result of no smoke

alarms or no workingsmoke alarms. In addition to the "replace by date" stamped on the back of your

alarm, your alarm contains a unique audible end-of-service life notification feature. When it is time

to replace your alarm, which is approximately 10 years from the date of installation, the alarm will

sound 1 beep approximately every 35 seconds and the red LED blinks approximately 3 times. The

product end-of-service life can be temporarily silenced for a 24-hour period for up to 25 days. After

25 days, the warning cannot be silenced. The alarm should be replaced immediately.

If you choose to use an aerosol smoke product to test the smoke alarm, be certain to use one

that has been Listed to Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. Safety Standards and use it only as

directed. Use of non-UL Listed products or improper use of UL Listed products may affect

the smoke alarm's sensitivity.

NUISANCE ALARM SILENCE FEATURE: This feature is to be used only when a known alarm

condition, such as smoke from cooking, activates the smoke alarm. The smoke alarm Silence

Feature is activated by pushing and releasing the Silence button on the smoke alarm cover. The

smoke alarm will automatically reduce sensitivity and the red LED will blink on approx. every 10

seconds to indicate the alarm is in the Silence mode. The smoke alarm will gradually regain normal

sensitivity and sound the alarm if particles of combustion are still present. The approximate 10

minute Silence feature may be used repeatedly until the air has cleared, by pushing and releasing

the Silence button again. Resetting the smoke alarm after a nuisance alarm is recommended.

NOTE: If the Test button is pressed and held during the Silence mode, the smoke alarm will be

tested normally. Upon the release of the Test button, the Silence mode will be restarted.

Before using the alarm Silence Feature, identify the source of smoke and be certain that safe

conditions exist.

Clean the smoke alarm at least once a month to remove dust, dirt, insects or debris. Always disconnect

the battery power to smoke alarm before cleaning. Using a soft brush or wand attachment to a vacuum

cleaner, vacuum all sides and cover of smoke alarm. Be sure all the vents are free of debris.

If the smoke alarm is false alarming and cannot be restored to normal operation, the smoke alarm

should be replaced.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT

This smoke alarm requires a 9 Volt Alkaline or Lithium battery. The battery should last for at least

one year under normal operating conditions. The smoke alarm has a low battery indicator, an audible

chirp. It will operate at approx. 40 second intervals for a minimum of 7 days. When this indication

occurs, replace the battery with an Alkaline type Energizer #522 or Lithium type Energizer LA522,

Ultralife U9VL-J or Ultralife U9VL-J-P from your local retailer.

Lithium Battery Models only - The Lithium battery is warranted to last for 10 years*

under normal operating conditions. Replace the battery with only Lithium type Energizer

LA522 or Ultralife U9VL-J or U9VL-J-P.

OPTIONAL BATTERY DRAWER TAMPER LOCKING PIN: To make your battery drawer tamper

resistant, a locking pin has been provided (breakaway part on mounting bracket).

NOTE: If this feature has been activated, you will need to deactivate it by removing the battery

drawer tamper pin located at side of battery drawer. Refer to Page 5.

Pull the QUICK DRAW(R) battery drawer open and remove the battery. While observing polarity,

push the replacement battery into the battery drawer until it is held securely in place. Carefully close

the battery drawer and reinstall the tamper pin.

Test the smoke alarm by pushing the TEST button on the smoke alarm cover until the alarm sounds,

then release.

REPAIRS AND SERVICES

If the smoke alarm is defective in any way, do not tamper with the smoke alarm. Return the smoke

alarm for servicing. (See warranty for instructions or in-warranty returns.) There will be a service

charge for repairing out of warranty smoke alarms.

DEVELOP AND PRACTICE A PLAN OF ESCAPE

BASICS OF ESCAPE PLAN

o Make a floor plan indicating all doors and windows and at least two escape routes from each

room. Second story windows may need a rope or chain ladder.

o Have a family meeting and discuss your escape plan, showing everyone what to do in case of fire.

o Determine a place outside your home where all of you can meet if a fire occurs.

o Familiarize everyone with the sound of the smoke alarm and train them to leave your home when

they hear the sound.

o Identify children's bedrooms with red stickers placed in the upper left corner of the windows. They

are available from your local fire department.

o Practice a fire drill at least every six months. Practice allows you to test your plan before an

emergency. You may not be able to reach your children. It is important they know what to do!

Page 6

NEVER use an open flame of any kind to test this smoke alarm. You might accidentally

damage or set fire to the smoke alarm or to your home. The built-in test switch accurately

tests the smoke alarm's operation as required by Underwriters Laboratories Inc. (UL).

WHAT TO DO WHEN THE ALARM SOUNDS

o Leave immediately by your plan of escape. Every second counts, so don't waste time getting

dressed or picking up valuables.

o In leaving, don't open any inside door without first feeling its surface. If hot, or if you see smoke seeping

through cracks, don'topenthatdoor! Instead, use your alternate exit. If inside door is cool, place your

shoulder against it, open it slightly and be ready to slam it shut if heat and smoke rush in.

o Stay close to the floor if air is smoky. Breathe shallowly through a cloth, wet if possible.

o Once outside, go to your selected meeting place and make sure everyone is there.

o Call the fire department from your neighbor's home – not from yours!

o Don't return to your home until fire officials say that it is all right to do so.
