14676 on flat or slanted ceiling. Wall mounting is not
allowed.
Perform the following steps. Find exact information about the
single steps on the following pages in this manual. See also the
graphics at the beginning of this manual.
1. Determination of the mounting locations. (1) Observe the
information regarding Unsuitable locations for mounting, page
8, and regarding Audibility, page 8. Each device is to be

mounted horizontally on the ceiling in centered position with
a minimum distance of 0.5m to walls and objects. On slanted
ceilings >20° it is to be mounted 0.5m to 1m from the top of
the ceiling. (2.A), (2.B), (2.C), (2.D)
2. Connecting devices, page 10. For testing the network,
position the devices near to the determined mounting
locations: Testing the network, page 10. If necessary switch
the repeater function on for one device, see Repeater
function, page 11.
3. For each device: Mounting the base. (5) Observe the mark
(5.2) for adjusting the emergency light and the marks (5.1)
for alignment with BOSCH label/siren.
4. Functional check, page 12, for each device after setting it up
into operation. (6) (7)
Unsuitable locations for mounting
– Kitchen/bathroom (steam)
– Rooms with open fireplaces (fumes)
– In the immediate vicinity of halogen lamps, transformers,
fluorescent or energy-saving lamps
– Garages (exhaust fumes)
– Dusty and dirty rooms
– In the vicinity of windows, ventilators (air movement)
– In the vicinity of areas where people smoke
Audibility
You must hear an alarm at any place in your building or flat. The
alarm really has to wake you up. If necessary adapt the number of
the devices for achieving audibility in your whole building or flat.

Mounting the base
Mount the base with one central screw and plug. (5.A) Or
optionally use two screws and plugs. (5.B) To set the device into
operation you screw the detector head to its base by twisting it
clockwise until it latches. (6)
4 Radio Network
Up to 40 FERION 5000 OW can be interconnected to create a
network. Thus, an alarm is raised at all devices giving the chance
to react faster to a distant fire. Before mounting to the ceiling,
position the devices you want to connect next to each other.
Leave a minimum distance of 1 m in between.
Notice!
FERION 5000 OW is not compatible with FERION 3000
OW. Both types cannot be integrated in one network.
Notice!
Hereby, Bosch Sicherheitssysteme GmbH declares that
the radio equipment type FERION 5000 OW is in
compliance with Directive 1999/5/EC and is designed
for the use in all countries of the European Union. The
full text of the EU declaration of conformity is available
at the following internet address:

Attentively read the following instructions before programming.
Connecting devices
If the device which you want to connect was not in use before
proceed with step 1. If the device which you want to connect was
already in use, disassemble head and base. Then press and hold
the button for about 4 s to clear for installation. If it was already
element of a network, then reset it first, see Disconnecting a
device (Reset), page 12.
1. Both devices must be in operation (head and base
assembled) and in normal mode (no optical signal).
2. For both devices, press and hold the button for about 4 s
until both devices flash orange (connecting). -> After a short
delay the devices light up green (connecting successful) or
red (connecting failed).
To connect a further device, repeat the procedure for one device
of the existing network and the unprogrammed device. (Up to 40
devices can be interconnected.)
Once you have connected all devices and the devices are in
normal mode again (no optical signal), test the network.
Testing the network
In addition to the Functional check, page 12 (7), for each device,
test the network:
1. Select the device that has to cover the longest distance to
connected devices. To send a radio test signal, press and
hold the button for about 4 s until the LED flashes orange
(connecting).
2. Press and release the button (< 2 s).
