Safety Indications - Gira 0869 00 Instructions De Montage Et Mode D'emploi

Safety Indications

• Do not paint over the smoke detector.
• Smoke detectors only recognise the smoke of a fire, not the flame
itself.
• Smoke detectors do not extinguish a fire. In case of an alarm search
for the source of the fire and, if necessary call the fire brigade (also
refer to „Correct behaviour in case of fire", page 24).
• Do not use rechargeable batteries (accumulators) or power supply
units as the voltage supply source. They can cause malfunctions or
a premature failure of the device.
• The smoke detector generates a very loud and shrill sound which
can damage your hearing. Therefore stay at least 50 cm away from
it during an function test.
• The smoke detector only monitors a defined area around the moun-
ting site. Install a sufficient number of detectors to cover the entire
living area and to provide optimal protection.
• Persons under the influence of alcohol or drugs might not be woken
up by the signal sound.
