2. GENE RAL DE SC RIPTION
The Somf y-SD helps to protect you and your home 24 hours a
day. It is specially designed for monitoring private dwellings
(houses, apartments, etc.).
If smoke is detected, a powerful audible alarm is triggered and an
alarm message is sent to the Somfy central unit.
Somfy-SD is not a gas detector.

Place a detector in each room, avoiding the unadvisable
locations given in §4.
Fo r b as ic pr o tec t ion:
Place a detector on each storey.
Place a detector near sleeping areas (for example, in the
corridor leading to the bedrooms; if the corridor is long
(>10 m), place one detector at each end).
Place a detector in every bedroom occupied by a smoker.
If it is not possible to fix the
detector to the ceiling, fix it to the
wall:
15 to 25 cm away from the
ceiling.
More than 60 cm from any
corner of the room.

rise above +50°C; there is a risk that the detector will
malfunction.
In a room where there is a risk of condensation. Bathrooms
and laundry rooms should be avoided.

ventilated garage) and generate false alarms.
In an excessively dusty place.

9. SMOKE D E TEC TOR LIMITA TI ONS
A smoke detector is an economical device that provides rapid
warning that a fire has started; however, residential fires start in
different ways and are often unforeseeable. Under certain
circumstances, the smoke detector might not provide warning of a
fire if:
The battery is low or the wrong type (see §6).
The electronics are faulty; they must be checked regularly as
set out in §7.
It has not been maintained (see §8).
It is in the wrong location (see recommendations in §4).
The smoke does not reach it. The smoke detector cannot
detect smoke generated by a fire on a different storey or on
the other side of a door.
It is out of range of the wireless central unit (see §7).
For maximum protection, we recommend that you place a
detector in every bedroom.
The Somf y-SD helps sa ve lives, but y ou must sti ll
