GENERAL INFORMATION

Thank you for purchasing this Smartwares smoke alarm! Please read these instructions carefully before using the smoke alarm. Retain this information n a safe and easily accessible place for future use and maintenance. If you have any questions or if you are looking for additional information about your smoke alarm, please visit our website service.smartwares.eu.

• Make/model number : FSM-114
• Description: The smoke alarm is based on the photocell principle, which means that the alarm monitors the air for smoke caused by fire. This apparatus contains a DC 9V battery with a lifetime of 5 years.
• Function: The smoke alarm is intended to alert the persons present near a fire/smoke and give them time to properly react to the danger.
• Scope of application: Buildings with residential function.

IMPORTANT:

• Caution: The alarm is designed in order to detect smoke; it cannot prevent a fire!
• Caution: The smoke alarm may not be painted or covered because this may cause loss of functionality.
• Caution: Using a smoke alarm is part of your fire protection, just as fire extinguishers, emergency ladders, ropes, but also your choice in the use of building materials for renovation. Always ensure that there is an evacuation plan and discuss this with your children. Ensure that each room can be left without opening the door, e.g. by the window. If there is any question as to the cause of an alarm, it should be assumed that the alarm is due to an actual fire and the dwelling evacuated immediately.
• Warning: Smoke alarm devices must be replaced no later than 10 years after initial activation. Fill out the activation date on the rating label on the product and mark the replacement date in your calendar.

INITIAL ACTIVATION

Before mounting this smoke alarm device, it is important to activate and test the apparatus. Activate and test the smoke alarm device as follows: Open the apparatus (see image 1). Connect the battery and make sure that you fit the battery in accordance with the polarity markings (+ or -) within the battery compartment (see image 2). Close the smoke alarm device and leave it at rest for about 5 minutes (the apparatus will calibrate itself). Press and hold the test button (see image 1a) until an alarm signal sounds and release. If the alarm signal does not sound after pressing the test button, the smoke alarm device is not working properly and the advice of Smartwares should be sought.
Important: For the safety of the end-user, the smoke alarm cannot be mounted if the battery is not placed.

MOUNTING

To mount the smoke alarm device, fix the base plate with the screws supplied and gently tighten the alarm onto the base plate (see image 3). Pay close attention to below siting recommendations to guarantee optimal performance of your smoke alarm device. After installing the smoke alarm device, always test its functionality by using the test button.
Important:

• WARNING: To prevent injury, this apparatus must be securely attached to the ceiling in accordance with the installation instructions.
• Smoke alarm devices should be installed in such a way that they can be reached unimpeded by the fire smoke, so that fires can be detected reliably in the development phase.
• Requirements for smoke alarm devices vary from state to state and from region to region. Always check the relevant requirements in your area with your local authorities!

How many smoke alarm devices?

• At least in every bedroom/nursery
• At least in corridors/escape routes
• At least one alarm per 40m2
• At least one alarm on each floor
• In rooms where electrical appliances are operated (i.e. portable heaters/humidifiers)

Please visit our website service.smartwares.eu for more detailed advice.
Where to mount a smoke alarm device?

• Centered at ceiling of the room
• Max height: 6m
• Min 0,5 m distance to walls/ barriers:
• Small rooms with width <1m: Centered at the ceiling
• Corridors with max width 3m: max 15m distance between 2 smoke alarm devices. Max. 7,5m to front side and smoke alarm devices at edges/crossings of corridors.
• Galleries: If length and width of the gallery are >2m and gallery area is >16m2, additional smoke alarm device required below gallery
• In roof slopes: If >20°, minimal 0,5m and maximal 1m to roof top. If ≤20°, consider as flat ceiling. In partial roof slopes: if flat ceiling ≤1m width, consider as roof slope. If flat ceiling is >1m wide, consider as flat ceiling.
• Ceiling joists (or similar): If height ≤0,2m, installation at ceiling or on joist. If height > 0,2m and separated area > 36m2 => additional smoke alarm devices in between.

Where not to mount your smoke alarm device?

• Close to air conditioning/ventilation systems;
• Locations where the ventilation can be impeded items such curtains etc.;
• In rooms where temperature can reach below 0°C and above 40°C.
• In damp spaces/kitchens/bathrooms, because steam can cause false alarms. Please visit our website for alarms that are suitable for usage in these rooms;
• Closer than 50 cm to light sources/electrical sources;
• Locations that are difficult to reach and impede the accessibility of the test button, battery replacement and maintenance.

ALARM SILENCE / HUSH MODE
When the smoke alarm device gives an alarm, please verify the cause of the alarm first. If required, the smoke alarm device can be placed into hush mode by pressing the test/hush button for more than 2 seconds. During hush mode the LED will flash every 8 seconds to indicate the smoke alarm device is in hush mode. Please remove the smoke or cause of the alarm and after 8 minutes the smoke alarm will automatically reset to normal mode. If the cause of the alarm is still present the smoke alarm device will give an alarm again.
Caution: Before using the alarm silence (hush mode), identify the source of the smoke and make sure the situation is safe.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT

If the battery is running low, the smoke alarm device will indicate this with an audible “beep” and a red flash. This indicator sounds continually with intervals of 32 seconds for at least 30 days. Replace the battery immediately when this indicator is given. Connect the new battery in accordance with the polarity markings (+ or -) within the battery compartment. To replace the battery, open the apparatus (see image 1), remove the empty battery and connect the new battery (see image 2). We highly recommend you to replace the battery on a fixed date, to ensure timely replacement.

• IMPORTANT: After replacing the battery, always test the smoke alarm device for correct operation with the test button.
• IMPORTANT: Only replace the battery with one of the certified battery types.

MAINTENANCE

Testing: We highly recommend you to test the functionality of your smoke alarm device every month. Press and hold the test button until the user friendly short alarm signal sounds. The signal stops once the button is released. If the alarm signal does not sound after pressing the test button, the smoke alarm device is not working properly and the advice of Smartwares should be sought.
Warning: Do not use an open flame to test your smoke alarm device, this could damage the apparatus or ignite combustible materials and start a fire.
Cleaning: For optimal performance, the smoke alarm device must be dusted once a month and vacuumed every six months. Do not touch the inside of the smoke alarm device with the nozzle of the vacuum cleaner. Always test the functionality of the apparatus after cleaning by pressing the test button.
