TESTING, MAINTENANCE AND SERVICING

This smoke alarm automatically tests
its functional readiness once every

environmental conditions. If the
energy reserves of the smoke alarm
are depleted or the detection optics
are so contaminated that it can no

conditions, the device indicates this
situation at an early stage so that you
have suffi-
cient time to replace the smoke alarm
with a new unit.
Stop: temporarily
deactivate or
