INTRODUCTION
The ST-622 multi-criteria high performance
detector is the ultimate alternative to
traditional alarms. Groundbreaking
Thermoptek technology combines the
very latest in optical sensing with thermal
enhancement, providing faster response
to both re types eliminating the need for
ionisation sources which can be harmful
to the environment. In addition, this smoke
alarm allows the low battery warning chirp
to be silenced until it is convenient to
replace the alarm (recommended within no
more than 30 days).
IMPORTANT: This user manual contains
important information regarding the
operation of your smoke alarm. Ensure you
read this user manual fully before installing
and operating the alarm. If you are installing
this smoke alarm for use by others, you
must leave this manual with the end user.
AUTOMATIC
POWER ENGAGE
Your 10 year life smoke alarm is powered
by an internal lithium power pack. To avoid
unnecessary use of the power pack prior
to installation, and to ease disposal when
the alarm reaches the end of its life, the
alarm is supplied with the power pack in a
deactivated state. The power pack on this
alarm is automatically enabled when the
alarm is fully locked on to the base plate.
IMPORTANT: Your alarm will not work until it
is correctly tted to the base plate.
THERMOPTEK
TECHNOLOGY
Thermoptek alarms are “toast-proof”
meaning they can be positioned in area
close to kitchens that may be affected by
cooking fumes. Heat alarms should be used
in kitchens where required.
This combines an optical sensing chamber
with thermal enhancement. The alarm is
effective at detecting slow burning res, and
constant monitoring of temperature changes
enables the sensitivity of the alarm to be
instantly increased thereby quickening the
typical response time to fast aming res
signicantly.
POSITIONING
WARNING: Your smoke alarm can be
installed into a new build property as
additional protection to an existing smoke
detection system only. It cannot be used
as a substitute for a hard wired system as
required in new build properties. In this
type of property the building regulations
require alarms to be interlinked. You can
obtain further information from your local
re service or building control department
at your local council ofces. These sources
generally provide advice on new builds or
projects that require planning permission.

EN
Your smoke alarm typically meets the
minimum requirements for family living units
in existing buildings, as long as at least one
unit is installed on each oor/level of your
property.
In order to achieve the earliest re warning,
we recommend that a smoke alarm is
tted in all rooms where the temperature
is normally between 4°C (40°F) and 38°C
(100°F). Check the section on ‘Positioning’
to ensure that the smoke alarm is to be
correctly positioned for the particular
dwelling into which it is intended to be
installed.
WARNING: The alarm positions shown are
based on typical homes. Construction and
layout of individual dwellings will vary, so
this should be regarded only as a guide.
Check with your local re station for further
guidance.

EXISTING HOMES
NOTE: Kitchens should be covered by a

RECOMMENDED FOR ADDITIONAL
PROTECTION
Multi-family or mixed occupant
residence (Tenancy building, student
accommodation)
Your smoke alarm can also be used in
individual ats and bedsits, providing
the same conditions are met as for a
single-family residence. However, there
must already be a primary re detection
system that meets regulatory requirements
for common areas such as lobbies and
hallways.

EN
Institutions and Hotels
This includes motels, hospitals, day care
facilities, long-term health care facilities,
boarding houses and dormitories. Your
smoke alarm can be used in individual
sleeping/resident rooms, providing the
same conditions are met as for a single-
family residence. However, there must
already be a primary re detection system
that meets regulatory requirements for
common areas such as lobbies and
hallways. Use of this smoke alarm in
common areas may not provide sufcient
re warning to residents or meet regulatory
requirements. This smoke alarm is designed
to operate as a standalone smoke alarm.
WARNING: This smoke alarm will not
communicate with other smoke alarms or
re alarm systems. It is not intended as a
substitute for a complete alarm system.
Mobile Homes and Caravans
This smoke alarm is suitable for use in
mobile homes and caravans.
Commercial and Industrial Premises
This smoke alarm is not intended for any
non-residential, commercial or industrial
application, nor for any other purpose than
described above.
HOW TO INSTALL YOUR
SMOKE ALARM
IMPORTANT: Make sure you have read and
understood this manual before installing
your smoke alarm.
1 Preparation
The base plate should be attached to the
ceiling or wall.
Break out the tabs from the base plate. Use
the xing slots on the base plate as a guide
when marking the position of the drill holes.
With an appropriately sized drill, drill the
holes and insert the plastic xing anchors
supplied (if needed).

2 Install Base plate
Fit the base plate to the ceiling or wall using
the screws provided.
3 Fit Your FireAngel Smoke Alarm
The alarm has a mechanism on the back
that activates the alarm when it is correctly
connected to the base plate. There are
three lugs (hooks) on the back of the alarm
that slide in to three slots on the base plate.
Alarm Base plate
Lugs (hooks)
When used with the base plate, the alarm
can be attached in any orientation, simply
line up the lugs (hooks) with the holes at
the end of the slots then twist the alarm
clockwise until the alarm stops, make sure
the alarm is twisted on fully.

EN
Once the smoke alarm has been tted onto
the base plate correctly, the internal power
pack will activate. The red LED on the front
of the alarm should now ash once every
40 seconds to show that it is active.
4 Test Your Smoke Alarm
After tting the alarm to the base plate, wait
for 5 seconds for the alarm to settle then
test the alarm. See ‘Alarm Test’.
OPERATION
Normal condition
The red LED on the front should ash every
40 seconds to show that the alarm is active.
Low Power Pack Condition
IMPORTANT: Your smoke alarm requires the
power pack to have sufcient capacity of
power to operate correctly.
Should your smoke alarm enter a low power
pack condition, the unit will emit an audible
‘chirp’ once every 40 seconds. When this
occurs, we recommend you replace the
alarm immediately. Your smoke alarm will
continue to warn of this low power pack
condition for at least 30 days, however,
failure to change the alarm after this time
would mean your smoke alarm may have
insufcient power to alert you in a real
re situation. When the alarm is removed
from the base plate the power pack will
automatically deactivate and the low power
warning chirp should stop, allowing you to
dispose of the alarm.
Low Battery Warning Silence
This feature can temporarily silence the
low battery chirp for 8 hours which is
particularly useful if the warning begins
during the night. This feature may be
repeated up to 10 times, but is not a
substitute for replacing the smoke alarm.
ALARM TEST
The alarm must be properly attached to the
base plate before it can be tested.
a Press the test button in the centre and
release.

EN
b The unit will give an audible alarm
consisting of 2 cycles of 3 loud beeps,
then stop automatically.
c The red LED on your alarm will ash
rapidly during the audible signal.
NOTE: The test button accurately tests
the alarm’s smoke sensing circuit, there is
no need to test your alarm with smoke. If
your smoke alarm fails to give an audible
test signal, please refer immediately to the
trouble shooting guide at the end of this
manual.
WARNING: You should test your smoke
alarm every week.
ALARM SMART
SILENCE™
DANGER: If your smoke alarm emits the
full alarm signal and you are not testing the
unit, the smoke alarm is warning you of a
potentially dangerous situation that requires
your immediate attention. Only use the alarm
silence function after making sure that there
is no ongoing re emergency situation. Do
not block the vents on the alarm or disable
the smoke alarm in any way, as this will
remove your protection. Smoke alarms can
sometimes react to cooking fumes or other
non emergency situations. Your smoke
alarm features “Smart Silence” technology.
In the event of a known false alarm your
smoke alarm can be temporarily silenced by
pressing the central test button. Your alarm
will automatically return to full sensitivity
within 10 minutes.
NOTE: If the level of smoke reaching the
alarm is very high the alarm silence will be
overridden and the alarm will continue to
sound.

a Press and release the silence button, the
alarm sound will shortly stop.
b Your alarm will silence and enter into a
reduced sensitivity reset cycle for
approximately 10 minutes.
c During the reduced sensitivity reset cycle,
the red LED on your alarm will continue
to ash more rapidly than normal,
approximately once every second.
d Your alarm will automatically return to full
sensitivity on completion of the reset cycle
and the red LED will revert to ashing
once every 40 seconds.
DANGER: Never ignore any alarm. Ignoring
the alarm may result in injury or death. If
your smoke alarm activates and alarms and
you are not absolutely certain of the source
of the smoke, get everyone out of the house
immediately.
LOW BATTERY WARNING
SILENCE
Low battery warnings often start at night
or when it maybe inconvenient to replace
your alarm. You can silence the audible
chirp for a period of 8 hours by pressing
the test button. Your smoke alarm will
