Modes

SEARCHING GATEWAY MODERed LED light in the back of the device is flashing every second (up to 15 minutes)

NORMAL MODEFront LED is flashing every 45 seconds.

ALARM MODEWhen smoke is detected, the LED will speed up flashes, and simultaneously, the device will emit a loud alarm sound. Press the button/top of the alarm to acknowledge and stop the siren. The following 10 minutes, it will block alarms, allowing time to ventilate the smoke.

LOW BATTERY MODESimultaneous audible signals and front LED flashes every 45 seconds means that the battery should be replaced.

REPLACE DEVICE MODEWhen audible signals and front LED flashes are not simultaneous, the device should be replaced. The life expectancy of Intelligent Smoke Alarms is generally 10 years, after which their sensors begin to lose sensitivity.

Fault finding & cleaning

  • Dust particles in the smoke chamber can be removed by vacuuming the mesh.
  • High humidity condensing can be resolved by drying the Intelligent Smoke Alarm.
  • If the Intelligent Smoke Alarm does not work when the test button is pushed, the probable cause is a faulty battery. Replace the battery if it is worn out.
  • In case of a bad or weak signal, change the location of the Intelligent Smoke Alarm. Otherwise, you can relocate your gateway or strengthen the signal with a smart plug.
  • If the search for a gateway has timed out, a short press on the LED button will restart it.

Battery replacement
