1. HOW TO SET UP AND CONNECT ALARMS:
Please note: The product label must not be
removed as it contains important information
regarding the product.
All alarms that need to be connected in the
house should be put into ‘Learn Mode’ by sliding
the switch on the back of the alarm to the ‘Learn
Mode’ position.
The red LED will light up to indicate that ‘Learn
Mode’ has been selected.
Please note that when the alarms are placed
in ‘Learn Mode’ they can’t be inserted into the
mounting base.
Press and hold the test button at one alarm only,
until it beeps and the LED ashes. This alarm
will send out a specic house code to the other
alarms.
As the other alarms receive the specic house
code, they will also ash the LED light.
When the red LED light flashes on all alarms,
they are connected and MUST BE SWITCHED
OUT OF ‘LEARN MODE’ and installed.
Label the original “Learn” alarm in order to easily
add new Cavius Wireless Family alarms to the
system.

7. TEST FUNCTION:
After installation, and at least once per quarter,
test all of your alarms to ensure they are operating
correctly and are within range of each other.
It is recommended to check visually every week
ifthe LED ashes correctly (every 48sec.)
Press the test button on any alarm for at least
10 seconds. This will send out a test signal
from the alarm; all other connected
alarms should receive the signal within a short
time. The alarms will emit a short beep and the
LED will ash every 8 seconds for 2 minutes.
NOTE: Test function also allows to send a deplet-
ed RF signal to ensure an optimal operation in
normal conditions.
When the test signal is sent out, the alarms will
respond in two ways:
1. A single beep every 8 seconds indicates that
the alarms are connected and functioning.
2. Three short beeps every 8 seconds indicates a
smoke sensor fault. The alarm should be cleaned
by running the vacuum (on a low setting) around
the smoke alarm chamber and tested again.
If required this indication can be stopped early on
each alarm by a short press of the test button.
TIP: It is safe to cover the sound output hole with
your nger during the testing to minimize the
sound level emitted.
