in the network. It will then become part of
the network.You do not have to ‘learn-in’
to each alarm in the network.
After completing the ‘learn-in’ procedure,
test the alarms as described in ‘ALARM
TEST’. If any interlinked alarm fails to
respond to the ‘ALARMTEST’, remove it
from its mounting plate and repeat the
‘learning-in’ process.
ALARM TEST
1. Briey press the test button in the
centre and release.
2. The unit will give an audible alarm
consisting of 2 cycles of 3 loud
beeps, then stop automatically.
3. The red LED on the alarm will ash
rapidly during the audible signal.
As with all electronic alarm products you
should test your heat alarm every week,
as well as any other interlinked alarms.
WARNING:The electronic test button
provides a full test of the alarms
functionality. DO NOT try to test the alarm
with a naked ame, as this might present
a re hazard in itself.
MAINTENANCE
Vacuum every three months to help keep
the unit working efciently. Vacuum the
exterior. Prevent vacuum from touching
the unit.
WARNING: Never attempt to open or
damage the battery.
TROUBLESHOOTING
If your heat alarm chirps intermittently:
• Check the location of your alarm.
• If the alarm chirps every 45 seconds
and the yellow LED ashes at the
same time, this indicates that the
power pack is low. Replace the unit
within 30 days.
• WHT-630 only: If the alarm chirps
every 4 hours, another alarm in the
network has a low power pack and
needs replacing.
If the yellow LED is ashing and the alarm
is chirping:
• If the yellow LED ashes at a
different time to the chirp, this
means there’s a fault with your alarm
and it needs replacing.
If your heat alarm does not sound during
testing:
• Push the centre test button rmly.
• If the unit has been silenced and is
in low sensitivity mode, it may not
sound. Wait 15 minutes.
• Make sure the alarm is securely
located into the mounting plate.
If the alarm fails to operate correctly, the
advice of the manufacturer should be
sought by contactingTechnical Support
on: 0800 141 2561.

radioactive material.This means that
the alarm is ideally suited for disposal
within the waste electronic and electrical equipment
(WEEE) recycling scheme. Please recycle where

WHERE TO LOCATE
For the best protection heat alarms should
always be installed as part of a complete
re protection system that also includes
smoke alarms. Heat alarms are best suited
to areas where dust, fumes and moisture
can cause nuisance alarms in smoke
alarms, such as:
• Boiler rooms
• Kitchens
• Laundry rooms
• Lofts
• Garages
Heat alarms should not be installed in
escape routes instead of smoke alarms.
They should only be used in the above
applications and where possible be
interlinked to smoke alarms. (Smoke
alarms should be installed in circulation
areas forming part of the escape routes
and in every room in the house.)
When heat alarms are installed in a room,
they should be placed on the ceiling, ideally
in the centre of the room. They should be
at a distance no greater than 5.3m from the
farthest wall, no greater than 5.3m from a
door to any room in which a re might
start and no greater than 5.3m from the
next heat alarm.
NOTE: HEAT ALARMS SHOULD NOT BE
WALL MOUNTED.
Install sufcient alarms to compensate for
closed doors and obstacles, which may
interfere with the path of heat to an alarm
and may prevent occupants from hearing
an alarm.
IMPORTANT: These heat alarms are
intended primarily for use in single
occupancy private dwellings. For use
in other applications the manufacturers
advice should be sought.
INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT: Please read ‘WHERE TO
LOCATE’ before installing the alarm.
Fit the mounting plate to the ceiling using
the screws provided.
To t the alarm to the mounting plate
included in this pack, position the alarm
on the plate, then turn clockwise until the
alarm is locked into position. Make sure
that the alarm is twisted fully. The power
pack will now activate. The red LED on
the front of the alarm should ash once,
approximately every 45 seconds to show
that it is active.
WIRELESS INTERLINK
(WHT-630 only)
The WHT-630 heat alarm contains an
inbuilt RF module, which enables you
to wirelessly interlink up to 50 Wi-Safe 2
products to create a network.Therefore the
WHT-630 alarms need to be ‘learned-in’ or
interlinked in order to communicate with
each other , or other alarms with Wi-Safe
2 technology.
Once a network has been established, if
one alarm activates, all other interlinked
alarms will also sound. Please note that
WHT-630s can only be interlinked with
other WHT-630s and products within the
Wi-Safe 2 range.
The process below describes ‘learning-in’
two alarms into a network, ‘Alarm 1’ and
‘Alarm 2’:
1. Install ‘Alarm 1’ as described previously.
2. Install the mounting plate for ‘Alarm 2’
in one of the recommended locations.
Do not t the second alarm onto its
mounting plate yet.
3. On ‘Alarm 2’, using a ballpoint pen or a
paperclip opened out, briey push and
release the learn button , located in a
circular hole in the back of the alarm.

Learn-in button
4. The red LED next to the learn button
will ash briey then light up for
approximately ve seconds to show it’s
ready to receive the ‘learn-in’ signal.
During these ve seconds you will
need to briey press the test button on
‘Alarm 1’ to wirelessly interlink the two
alarms.
5. ‘Alarm 1’ will give an audible sound
consisting of 2 cycles of 3 loud beeps.
The red LED on the wireless module of
‘Alarm 2’ will ash to indicate that it has
been ‘learned-in’ successfully.
6. PLEASE NOTE: If the test button is
not pressed quickly enough (before
the red LED on ‘Alarm 2’ has gone
out), the ‘learn-in’ process will fail.
If this happens, repeat the process
again, as described above.
7. Fit ‘Alarm 2’ onto its mounting plate
to complete the installation.
Additional alarms should be ‘learned-
in’ in the same way. When ‘learning-in’
additional alarms, any alarm already in
the network can be used as ‘Alarm 1’.
This means that you can ‘learn-in’ the
additional alarm, into any alarm already
