For instance, if smoke is detected and the device is set to hush mode, high-
temperature detection will still be active.
In the event that smoke and high temperature are both detected at the same
time, and the device is set to hush mode, then both smoke and high
temperature detection will not work for the next 10 minutes.
In an interconnected group, if more than one device has blinking Red LEDs and
an active alarm, short press the Test/Hush button on all devices. All
interconnected devices stop alarming within 5 to 10 s.
NOTE: Wait for 10 minutes before performing any test to avoid malfunctioning
of the device.
