3. MAINTENANCE AND
FUNCTION TEST
It is recommended to perform a function test
for the Smart Smoke Alarm monthly. The function
test is done by pressing the test button
on the alarm unit. If the RCD trips and the
power to the electrical appliances within the
group is cut o, the Smart Smoke Alarm is fully
operational. After performing the function test,
it is important to restore the power by resetting
the protection switch of the RCD. If you do not
know where the electrical panel or the RCDs
are located, contact the administrator of your
building or the installing electrician.
The gure shows a typical RCD. The device in
your home may not be identical with the
device on the left. The RCD test button is
normally marked with the letter“T”.
If the Smart Smoke Alarm has been installed in
accordance with the instructions, the numbers
on the protection switches will match those of
the alarm units. The numbers are marked in the
maintenance document.
If the RCD does not trip, see the instructions in
Section 5.
The Smart Smoke Alarm should be maintained
on a regular basis according to the alarm unit’s
own instructions.
The working life of the alarm battery can vary
depending on the type of batteries used. If the
battery needs replacing, a beep will sound at
intervals of 30 seconds. When this occurs, the
battery shall be replaced without delay.
The working life of the Smart Smoke Alarm unit
is 10 years, after which it should be replaced.

become visible.
