Fig. 1
3.2. Mounting Position
1) Recommended Location
The position of a smoke detector is critical if
maximum speed of fire detection is desired. This
smoke detector can be mounted on a ceiling or
wall. Thus, the best location for a smoke detector
is the center of the ceiling. At this location, the
smoke detector is closest to all areas of the
room.
When mounted on ceilings, the edge of the
smoke detector should be at least 50cm to
any wall.
When mounted on slope or gable roof, the
smoke detector should keep a certain
distance from the roof. The distance should be
0.2m when slope angle is less than 30. It
should be 0.3m~0.5m if the angle is more
than 30.
2) Locations to avoid
To avoid false alarms, do not install smoke
detectors:
In or near areas where combustion particles
are normally present such as kitchens. In
garages where there are particles of
combustion in vehicle exhausts. Near
furnaces, water heater, or gas space heaters.
The smoke detectors should be installed at
least 6 meters away from kitchens and
other areas where combustion particles
are normally present.
In air streams passing by applications such as
kitchens.
In damp or very humid areas, or next to
bathrooms with showers. The moisture in
humid air may cause false alarm. Install
smoke detectors at least 3 meters away
from bathrooms

Hall

Under ultra high or low temperature, where
the temperature can go above or below the
operating range of the smoke detector.
Operating temperature of the smoke detector
is -10oC~50oC.
In very dusty or dirty areas. Tiny dust and
dirt can go through the filter and build up in
the chamber to make the smoke detector
over-sensitive or block openings to the
sensing chamber and keep the smoke
detector from sensing smoke.
Near fresh air inlets or returns or excessively
draughty areas. Airflow from air-conditioners,
heater, fans or air inlets will blow smoke away
from the smoke detector, making the smoke
detector less effective.
In dead air spaces at the top of a peaked roof
or in the corners between ceilings and walls.
Dead air may prevent smoke from reaching a
smoke detector.
Near fluorescent light fixtures. Electrical
“noise” from nearby fluorescent light fixtures
may cause a false alarm. Install smoke
detectors at least 1.5m away from such
light fixtures.
Note: Never take the batter out of a smoke
detector to silence a nuisance alarm. Open a
window or fan the air around the smoke
detector to remove the smoke. The sound
will automatically turn off when the smoke in
the air is completely gone.
Do not stand close to the smoke detector.
The sound produced by the smoke detector
is loud and may be harmful to your hearing.
3.3 Mounting Method
Note: For new building, do not install the
smoke detector until fit up and cleaned up.
1) Checking
Before installation, verify that the enclosure and
labels complete.
2) Mounting
Warning: Installation of the smoke detector
must comply with local standards. Failure
may result in damage to life and property.
Fix the base of a smoke detector on the
ceiling by two φ6 expansion bolts.
Align the small mark on the side of the
smoke detector with the arrow of “start”
mark on the base and rotate the smoke
detector clockwise.

3) Testing
The smoke detector has a buzzer, a button and a
red LED. Install the battery, press and held the
test button (as in Fig. 3), the buzzer will generate
alarming sound and the LED flashes quickly. C+
and C- of a smoke detector is closed. Release
the button, the smoke detector resumes to
normal operation. C+ and C- of a smoke detector
is opened.
Note: Remove dust cover for the first testing.
Put it on before the smoke detector operates
normally to protect again dust.

4. Usage and Function
4.1. Usage of the Smoke detector
This smoke detector is designed to sense smoke
entering into the smoke chamber. It does not
sense gas, heat or flame.
This smoke detector can monitor the air and,
when it senses smoke, activates its built-in alarm
buzzer to provide precious time for you and your
family to escape from your residence before a
fire spreads. Such an early warning, however,
is possible only if the smoke detector is located,
installed, and maintained as specified in this
manual.
Note: If the smoke detector is not used in a
network, it can only be used within single
residential living units, that is, it should be
used inside a single-family home or one
apartment of a multi-family building. In a
multi-family building, the smoke detector
may not provide early warning for residents if
it is placed outside of the residential units,
such as on outside porches, in corridors,
lobbies, basements, each residential unit
should have smoke detectors to alert the
residents of the unit.
Self Test/Silence

4.2. Main Functions
a) Alarm Testing: The smoke detector can work
properly after connecting power supply, and
the indicator flashes about every 45 seconds.
Press the test button, the buzzer generates
alarming sound and the indicator flashes
quickly. C+ and C- of a smoke detector is
closed. Release the button, the smoke
detector resumes to normal working
condition. C+ and C- of a smoke detector is
opened.
b) Alarming: When smoke density reaches a
certain level around the smoke detector, the
LED will flash quickly, and the buzzer
generate alarming sound. C+ and C- of a
smoke detector is closed. When the smoke
disappears, the smoke detector can resume
to normal automatically. Then C+ and C- of a
smoke detector is opened.
c) Silence: when alarm is given by a smoke
detector, the alarming sound can be
silenced by pressing the button. The smoke
detector will resume to normal after about 55
seconds later.
d) Indication of low battery: When the battery
voltage is lower than 2.7V, the smoke
detector will give short “chirp” sound with
visual indication and the buzzer alarms
about every 45 seconds. These shows the
battery is low and should be replaced by
new one.
e) Indication of low sensitivity: When sensitivity
of the sensing chamber is low, the detector
will give short “chirp” sound between two
flashes of the indicator.
f) Sensitivity drift compensation: the dust can
build up in the sensing chamber as time
goes by, so the feature of sensitivity drift
compensation can delay the date of clearing
taking accumulative dust into consideration.
g) Indicating dirty chamber: When chamber is
dirty, the detector will give short “chirp”
sound between two flashes of the indicator.
h) Switch output terminals:
This smoke detector provides a switch
output isolating photoelectric (normally
open). The capacity: external volatge can be
up to 30V and the current can be up to
60mA. It is used to control associated
devices.
C+ of a smoke detector can connect to
anode of the power supply and C- of a
smoke detector to cathode of the power
supply.
C+ and C- of a detector is opened when
polling, and closed when alarming.
4.3. Limitations
The smoke detector will not work without
power. This smoke detector is powered by
batteries; it will not work without batteries, with
dead batteries or is the batteries are not installed
properly.
The smoke detector may not sense fire that
starts where smoke cannot reach it, such as in
chimneys, in walls, on roofs, or on the other side
of closed doors.
The smoke detector may also not sense fire
on another level of a residence building. For
example, a second-floor smoke detector may not
sense a fire on first floor or in basement.
Therefore, smoke detectors should be placed on
every level of a residence or building.
The buzzer in the smoke detector meets or
exceeds audibility requirements of relative
standards.
5. Troubleshooting
5.1. A smoke detector gives alarm on power
up.
Make sure there is not too much smoke,
dust or vapor in the room.
The smoke detector may be in an unstable
state. Please press the test button for 3
seconds or so then release it to resume the
smoke detector back to proper operation.
If two cases above are excluded, the
smoke detector still doesn’t work properly.
Please return the smoke detector for repair
(see 7. Return a Smoke detector) .
5.2. A smoke detector doesn’t give alarm
when the button is pressed.
Check battery if it is low voltage. Replace it
with a new one.
It is is not the case above, return the smoke
detector for repair.
6. Maintenance
1. The smoke detector should be tested after
installed and after every one week. For any
problems, please contact our local distributor or
agent for technical support.
2. In normal environment, the battery can last for
about three years. But adverse circumstance like
high temperature and humidity may shorten its
life. Please replace battery when the smoke
detector alarms low battery. Please use two AA
1.5V LR6 batteries.
Note: Please use recommended batteries.
Otherwise the smoke detector may be
damaged.
3. Replacing the battery, as shown in Fig. 4.
Use screwdriver to open the battery cap.
Slightly take the battery out of battery
holder.
Replace two new batteries.
Put the battery cap back.

Fig. 4
Note: after replacing the battery, test the
smoke detector by pressing the button to
ensure that it is able to operate normally.
4. After the smoke detector has been in
operation for a long period or it’s installed before
completion of the construction, the smoke
detector may have dirt build-up in the chamber,
which could cause false alarm. In case of this,
contact local distributor for technical support. If
the reason is accumulative dust, return the
smoke detector for cleaning.
5. If the smoke detector gives short “chirp”
sound and visual indication, this means
sensitivity is low and the smoke detector is not
working properly. Please do not try to repair it
by yourselves. This will void your warranty.
See “Return a Smoke detector” for instructions
to return the smoke detector. Or you can inform
local distributor or agent. We will respond as
soon as possible.
6. It’s recommended to replace the smoke
detector for every 10 years.
Warnings:
Dust cover can’t be removed until the
project is plunged. Protect the dust cover
for the future use. Dust cover provides
limited protection against airborne dust
particles. So, remove the smoke detector
prior to heavy remodeling or construction
and inform the proper authority.
Never use any kinds of open flames to
test your smoke detector. You may
ignite and damage the smoke detector
as well as catching a fire. The test
button is designed to accurately
simulate smoke conditions and test the
smoke detectors functions as required
by relative standard.
Don’t cover, paste, or block the
openings of a smoke detector. Those
openings are used for ventilation to
sample the air around.
Dust covers are an effective way to limit the
entry of dust into smoke detector sensing
chambers. However, they may not
completely prevent airborne dust particles
from entering the smoke detector.
Therefore, we recommend the removal of
smoke detectors before construction or
other dust producing activity begin. Be sure
to notify the proper authority for the
removal of the smoke detectors.
A false alarm will be given if the smoke
detector is not clearned regularly. If dust
is build-up, the smoke detector may
give the alarm without fire.
When fire test is made, output switch
signal will caused the connected device
to give alarming sound. Please isolate
such devices to avoid false alarm.
7. Return a Smoke detector
Should you experience problems, please follow
the steps to return the faulty smoke detectors.
7.1 Remove the smoke detector and take out
the battery.
7.2 Carefully pack (the manufacturer cannot be
responsible for consequential damage) and
return to the manufacturer (or local
distributor and agent). Please attach
complete details as to exact nature of
difficulties being experienced and date of
installation.
