•
Ensure everyone in the house knows the sound the
smoke alarms produce and regularly practice use of
the escape route.
•
Leave the house immediately according to the plan
when hearing the alarm. Every second counts: so
respond quickly. If you do not notice smoke or heat,
check if everyone in the house is in a secure location.
•
Do not open any doors without feeling wether the
door is warm or if there is smoke coming from under-
neath the doors. If it is, do not open that door. If the
door is cold, put your shoulder firmly against the door
and open it a small amount to check for any heat or
smoke first.
•
If there is much smoke, keep low and take shallow
breaths, preferably through a moist towel. Call the fire
department as soon as you are safe outside.

Only use the recommended type Newsun CR-2450. Under

If it is about to need replacement, the smoke detector
will make a chirping sound every 30 to 40 seconds. Pay
attention to the polarity when replacing batteries. Test the
detector after every battery replacement. If the smoke
detector does not function, please contact your supplier.
