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.
Do not take out the battery during ‘Learn Mode’ as this will interrupt the learn
process.

As the other alarms receive the specic house code, they will also ash the
LED light.
When all alarms ash the red LED, they are connected and can be switched
out of ‘Learn Mode’ and installed. 9
2. THE BEST AREAS TO INSTALL THE HEAT ALARM:

6. 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 if the LED ashes correctly
(every 48sec.)
Press the test button on any alarm for at least 6.5 seconds (count 2 sets of 3 sound
sweeps). 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 depleted RF signal to ensure an optimal
operation in normal conditions.
18

7. NORMAL MODE:
In normal mode the LED will ash every 48 seconds to show correct operation.
20
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 heat sensor fault.
If required this indication can be stopped early on each alarm by a short press of
the test button.
If the problem continues, please visit www.cavius.com for any trouble shooting.

8. ALARM MODE:
When a rapid and constant change of temperature is detected, the heat alarm
will go into ‘Alarm Mode’. It will sound the alarm signal and the LED will ash.
The heat alarm will also transmit the alarm signal to the other connected
alarms, which will also sound the alarm signal after a short delay.
Please note that only the originating alarm’s LED will ash, so it can be identied.
21
9. PAUSE/HUSH FUNCTION:
If the heat alarms are to set into a false alarm by cooking, replace, etc. they
can be paused for 10 minutes by pressing the test button on the originating
heat alarm only (indicated by the ashing LED).
The reason of this is that it is necessary to locate the source of the alarm before
using the hush function. This is to make sure that it is not a life threatening
situation.

10. ADD EXTRA DEVICE:
All CAVIUS interconnected alarms within the
they run on the same frequency and use the same data protocol.This means
that the wireless system can consist of a combination of smoke, heat, ood
etc.
Place all alarms into ‘Learn Mode’ and repeat section 1.
Always test connection to all devices by repeating test function section 6 after
adding devices.

11. LOW BATTERY SIGNAL:
Your product has a 5Y battery life.
When the battery is starting its end of life, a short beep will sound out every
48 seconds for 30 days.
The alarm effected by the low battery will only beep, no other connected alarms
will sound.
It is safe to change batteries in the alarms without going through the learn
process again – they will not forget the codes during the battery change
process.
25
12. BATTERY REPLACEMENT:
To replace the battery, detach the heat alarm from the mounting base by twist-
ing counterclockwise.
Replace the battery respecting the polarities.
Attach the alarm in the mounting base by twisting clockwise until it clicks, and
test the alarm.
26

13. TROUBLE SHOOTING:
If you are experiencing false alarms with just general cooking, you may have
your heat alarm too close to the cooking hobs and stove. Try reinstalling slightly
further away to alleviate any issues.
If the heat alarm does not work when the test button is pushed, the probable
cause is a faulty battery. Check if the battery is worn out and replace it. Always
test the alarm after replacement of battery.
If the problem continues, please visit www.cavius.com for any trouble shooting.
