Connect the battery, making sure that the
battery connections are correct. The red
indicator lamp flickers for 15 sec, then once
every 10 sec, signalling the normal operation
of the detector.

Installation of the detector

Selection of the installation
location
The detector shall be installed:
• In rooms subject to a risk of fire (living
rooms with a fireplace, childrens rooms,
occupied attics or basements...),
• Preferably at the center of the ceiling,
• Away from air outlets likely to disperse
smoke,
• At a distance greater than 50 cm from any
obstacle (wall, partition, beam...),
• At each end of a corridor of a length
greater than 10 m.
If the installation at a horizontal ceiling is
not feasible, install it:
• At a distance greater than 50 cm from the
ceiling and from any room angle
• Away from any electric disturbances
(electric meter, metal box, electronic
ballast...),
• In the event of fixing to a metal wall: insert
a nonmagnetic material support wedge
(wood or plastic) between the base and
the wall.

TG 501A
Connect the battery, making sure that the
direction of battery connections are correct and
connect the product to the sector 230 V on
terminals L/N. The red indicator lamp flickers
for 15 sec, then once every 10 sec, signalling
the normal operation of the detector. The green
indicator indicates the sector presence.
The detector shall not be fixed:
• Directly on a metal surface,
• near (minimum distance 50 cm) an
electronic ballast, low voltage transformer,
energy saving bulbs, etc.,
• In very dusty rooms,
• In a room where the inside temperature
can fall below -10°C or above +50°C,
resulting in a failure of the detector,
• At a distance less than 1m from any
heating, cooling or ventilation outlet, by
which smoke could be dispersed,
• At a distance less than 6 m from any
fireplace or wood stove where flue gas is
likely to release unwanted alarm,
• In a room where cooking and steam
fumes are likely to cause an unwanted
false alarm,
• In a room where there is a risk of
condensation or moisture (such as
bathrooms, wash-houses...),
• At the top of an ogival ceiling (with an A
shape), where an air pocket can be
formed and prevent smoke from reaching
the detector.
