Alecto SMARTSMOKE11 Smoke Alarm for Domestic
EN The SMARTSMOKE11 is a smoke detector for the detection of fire in the first
phase. In case of smoke development, the SMARTSMOKE11
will give a loud alarm tone of at least 85dB (A). The SMARTSMOKE11 can be
connected and then the alarm will be reported in the TUYA app and a scenario
can be triggered. It is advised to test the smoke detectors every week using
the test button on the smoke detectors. Keep this manual in a safe place or in
the meter cupboard.
RECOMMENDED MOUNTING PLACES FOR THE SMARTSMOKE11
- Place at least one smoke detector in the vicinity of the bedrooms. Make sure that an exit remains accessible or choose an escape route. Place the detector where the escape route is, so that the smoke detector would go off before it would become inaccessible.
- Make use of several detectors to increase safety in such a way that the escape route remains accessible.
- Place at least one smoke detector on each floor of your home.
- Place an Alarm at least in every bedroom where smoking is taking place or where there is equipment that could cause a fire.
- Smoke, heat and combustion products will first pull up to the ceiling. After that, the smoke, heat and combustion products will continue horizontally.
- If you mount the detector to the ceiling, keep a minimum distance of 50 cm from the wall and 61 cm from a corner. Smoke, heat and combustion products will not get into a corner either.
DO NOT INSTALL IN THE FOLLOWING LOCATIONS:
- The shower or bathroom; water damp might cause a false alarm and the moist environment might damage the detector.
- The garage: The car exhaust might cause a false alarm.
- In front of a fan or nearby the exhaust of an air conditioner or heater.
- In a ceiling nook.
- In rooms where the temperature could reach below -10°C or beyond 40°C.
- Do not paint or otherwise cover this smoke detector.
INSTALLATION INFORMATION
- Attach the ceiling plate using the included plugs and screws to the ceiling on a location of choice. Wall moun-ting is not recommended for smoke detection.
- The battery for connecting the detector to Wi-Fi is already inserted in the detector. Only the activation plate needs to be removed.
- The built-in battery lasts about 10 years. However, the battery for the wireless WiFi connection lasts only 3 years. If the battery needs replacing, remove the module from the back of the device to replace the battery (CR123A).
Turning the detector on the ceiling plate switches it on automatically.
Once the smoke detector is installed correctly the green LED will light up
every 49 seconds, 4 seconds later the red LED will light up briefly. This
indicates that the SMARTSMOKE11 is working correctly, it is important to test
the unit weekly.
USING, REGISTERING, TESTING AND MAINTENANCE
Using: The moment the detector comes into contact with smoke or fumes, the
alarm will go off. When the smoke or fumes disappear, the alarm will
automatically stop. For pairing with WiFi and the TUYA app, the device needs
to be registered first. Once a smoke detector goes off, it will also send a
signal to the app, which will either notify you or start a pre-programmed
scenario.
Connecting
To connect to the TUYA APP, refer to the registration manual
Time-out function:
This function disables the alarm for 9 minutes. This feature can only be
turned on when there is smoke, by pressing the button once briefly. The red
indicator light will light briefly every 7 seconds to indicate that the sound
has been temporarily suppressed. After 9 minutes or as soon as the smoke is
gone the status will be restored.
If there is still smoke, the alarm will be reactivated. In case there is no
smoke present the SMARTSMOKE11 will go to standby mode, it is now possi-ble to
test the SMARTSMOKE11 again.
- Test: The alarm is very loud (>85dB). We recommend using hearing protection when testing the smoke detectors. By pressing the test button on the SMARTSMOKE11 the alarm can be tested.
- Press the test button for at least 5 seconds. Operation is correct for 2 or 3 signal tones. Then the alarm is still working correctly.
- The App will now receive a notification.
- If a detector’s test does not work, check the battery. If it does not work with a new battery, replace the appropriate Smoke Alarm.
- The test function does not work if the time-out function is enabled. Check the detectors every week. In alarm status, the smoke detectors generate at least 85dB(A) of sound pressure. Do not test the smoke detectors with candles, open flames, cigarettes, or the like.
ATTENTION
- If there are questions about the cause of an ALARM, assume that the alarm is caused by a fire and immediately evacuate the home.
- Keep smoke detectors out of the reach of children.
- During construction and renovation work, protect the smoke detectors from dust. Without protection, the smoke detectors lose their functionality.
- Maintenance: The smoke detector is maintenance-free. In very dusty rooms they may be cleaned by vacuum.
Plan an escape route
- Make a map and mark all locations of doors and windows and a possible escape route. Note that you may need an escape ladder on high floors.
- Ensure everyone in the house knows the sound the smoke alarms produce and regularly practice use of the escape route.
- Leave the house immediately according to the plan when hearing the alarm. Every second counts: so respond quickly. If you do not notice smoke or heat, check if everyone in the house is in a secure location.
- Do not open any doors without feeling wether the door is warm or if there is smoke coming from underneath the doors. If it is, do not open that door. If the door is cold, put your shoulder firmly against the door and open it a small amount to check for any heat or smoke first.
If there is much smoke, keep low and take shallow breaths, preferably through a moist towel. Call the fire department as soon as you are safe outside.
Replacing the batteries:
The smoke detector’s wifi module is powered by 1x CR123A battery.
Under normal circumstances, the battery will last approximately three years.
When the battery needs replacement, the App will display a low battery
message. If the built-in battery is low, the device will sound 1 beep every 49
seconds. This sound will last for a minimum of 30 days. This means that the
product has reached the end of its life and needs to be replaced completely.
Environment: Do not throw away used batteries, but recycle them using your local chemical depot. Product may not be thrown out as normal waste, but must be recycled as electrical waste.
