Maintenance

•
This smoke alarm is equipped with a self-test mechanism. At least once a month at a random
moment, the device automatically checks the functionality of the sensor and the siren. During
a successful test, the detector will beep and blink briefly. If problems are detected, the
detector switches to error mode. Replace the device immediately if the error message occurs!
•
We recommend testing the device manually at least once a year by pressing and holding the
test button for 3 seconds. Tip: Put a reminder in your calendar to prevent you from
forgetting the annual test.
•
Dust is a major cause of false alarms. Therefore, clean the smoke alarm once a month. Use a
vacuum cleaner to gently clean the sides of the smoke alarm from accumulated dust. Never
use a wet cloth or detergent to clean your device. This may damage the sensor.
