Test Button and LED Light
In Standby Mode
The red LED, as the ALARM indicator, are featured with the Asante Smoke Detector Alarm.
It can be seen through the clear test button on the cover of the unit. When red LED flashes every 334 seconds,
it indicates that the Smoke Detector is under normal operation. When Smoke Detector senses smoke; it
sounds an alarm with 3 beeps, pause and 3 beeps. The red LED will flash continuously and rapidly.
Silence Feature
The silence feature can temporarily turn off sound for up to 10 minutes.
To use this feature, press test button on the cover when alarm goes off.
If the smoke concentration around the Smoke Detector is still at an alarming level after 10 minutes of silence,
the unit will re-alarm immediately.
Low Battery Warning Signal
If the alarm horn begins to chirp once in 43 seconds with red and yellow LED flashing, it indicates that the
Smoke Detector battery is weak. This low battery warning signal should last for up to 30 days. However, you
should replace battery immediately upon receiving this signal for continuous protection.
Tamper Switch Feature
If the Smoke Detector is not mounted into the bracket properly during the first 5 minutes after battery is
installed, the tamper function is triggered and the yellow LED stays on.
If the Smoke Detector is still not mounted into the bracket properly 5 minutes after battery is installed, you
will hear three beeps with yellow LED steadily on until smoke alarm is mounted back into bracket.
