Choosing a location
Special case: sloped ceilings
> 20°
Special case: partially sloped ceilings
> 1 m
RWM RM
> 20°
The smoke alarm should not be installed in the following areas
• outside (use only in internal rooms);
• in areas in which the alarm can be triggered by disturbances (steam,
condensation, 'normal' smoke, fumes, dust, dirt or grease);
• next to ventilation or similar air inlets (draughts);
• in areas where temperatures may fall below 0° C or exceed 45° C.
• There are no special requirements for
ceilings sloped at an angle of < 20°.
• In the case of ceilings sloped at an
angle of > 20°, detectors should be
installed 0.5–1 m away from the
highest point.
• The instructions for fully sloped ceilings
apply for partially sloped ceilings with a
horizontal ceiling surface measuring
< 1 m in width.
• In the case of partially sloped ceilings
with a horizontal ceiling surface
measuring > 1 m, detectors should be
installed in the centre of the horizontal
surface.

Networking

Up to 12 smoke alarms of type RWM165 can be networked with each other. If a
detector detects an alarm, this alarm is indicated optically and acoustically by all
networked detectors. Due to the radio connection, a maximum distance of up to
100 metres is possible between the individual detectors in rooms. The range can be
negatively influenced by the building construction and structure.
Attention! Do not network wireless smoke detectors of other models with this one.
This could lead to malfunctions!
1. Switch on the power switch at the bottom of the first smoke detector.
2. Press the code button on the bottom of the first smoke detector: the red LED
flashes approx. once per second.
