2106-008 Optical Smoke Alarm Device
Optical smoke alarm device
Commercial reference: 2106-008
Developed by CAVIUS
The smoke alarm is designed for private homes.
PLEASE READ THE USER GUIDE CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLATION AND RETAIN FOR
FUTURE USE.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS:
The device comes with a 3V lithium battery. Batteries are to be handled with
care and battery powered devices should be kept out of reach of children. Do
not try to recharge or burn the batteries.
TEST FUNCTION:
After installation, and at least once per quarter, test all of your alarms to
ensure they are operating correctly and are within range of each other.
It is recommended to heck visually every week if the LED flashes correctly
(every 48sec.)
Press the test button on any alarm for at least 10 seconds. This will send out
a test signal from the alarm; all other connected alarms should receive the
signal within a short time. The alarms will emit a short beep and the LED will
flash every 8 seconds for 2 minutes.
NOTE: Test function also allows to send a depleted RF signal to ensure an
optimal operation in normal conditions.
When the test signal is sent out, the alarms will respond in two ways:
- A single beep every 8 seconds indicates that the alarms are connected and functioning.
- Three short beeps every 8 seconds indicates a smoke sensor fault. The alarm should be cleaned by running the vacuum (on a low setting) around the smoke alarm chamber and tested again.
If required this indication can be stopped early on each alarm by a short
press of the test button.
TIP: It is safe to cover the sound output hole with your finger during
the testing to minimize the sound level emitted.
If the problem continues, please visit www.cavius.com
for any trouble shooting.
NORMAL MODE:
In normal mode the LED will flash every 48 seconds to show correct operation.
ALARM MODE:
When a concentration of smoke is detected, the smoke alarm will go into ‘Alarm
Mode’. It will sound the alarm signal and the LED will flash.
The smoke alarm will also transmit the alarm signal to the other connected
alarms, which will also sound the alarm signal after a short delay.
The CAVIUS Wireless Family have two different alarm signals:
Alarm signal 1 (— — —) is life threatening alarms.
Alarm signal 2 (- – -) is a non life threatening alarm.
Smoke alarm signal: — — —
Heat alarm signal: — — —
Please note that only the originating alarm’s LED will flash, so it can be
identified.
PAUSE/HUSH FUNCTION:
If the smoke alarms are to set into a false alarm by cooking, fireplace, etc.
they can be paused for 10 minutes by pressing the test button on the
originating smoke alarm only (indicated by the flashing LED).
The reason of this is that it is necessary to locate the source of the alarm
before using the hush function. This is to make sure that it is not a life
threatening situation.
LOW BATTERY SIGNAL:
Your product has a 10Y battery life.
When the battery is starting its end of life, a short beep will sound out
every 48 seconds for 30 days.
The alarm affected by the low battery will only beep, no other connected
alarms will sound.
It is recommended to replace the smoke alarm after 10 years, or if the alarm
has suffered any damage. The alarm is not active unless it is inserted in the
mounting base.
Always check the alarm after inserting in the mounting base (allow a few
seconds before testing).
MAINTENANCE & TROUBLE SHOOTING:
- The smoke alarm should be vacuum cleaned once per quarter, to remove dust particles, and it can be wiped with a damp cloth. (Do not open the alarm).
- High humidity condensing which can be resolved by drying the smoke alarm.
If the smoke alarm does not work when the test button is pushed, the probable
cause is a faulty battery. Check if the battery is depleted by pushing the
test button.
If the problem continues, please visit www.cavius.com
for any trouble shooting.
