Your home is protected with a Kidde Fyrnetics alarm.
Please read through our guide in full. It should be retained for future reference.
Cut out page 6 and pin up near your Consumer Unit/Fuse Box.
Kidde Fyrnetics recommends for maximum protection that both ionisation and
photo-electric (optical) smoke alarms be installed. Ionisation sensing alarms may
detect invisible fire particles (associated with fast flaming fires) sooner than
photoelectric alarms. Photoelectric sensing alarms may detect visible fire particles
(associated with slow smoldering fires) sooner than ionisation alarms. Home fires
develop in different ways and are often unpredictable. For maximum protection,
Kidde recommends that both Ionisation and Photoelectric alarms be installed.Heat
alarms are useful in areas with condensation/dust/high humidity, such as kitchens
and lofts. Heat alarms MUST ALWAYS be interconnected to smoke alarms.
Electrical rating 230V AC,
50Hz 80mA max per alarm

2. Important Information
This alarm is designed for installation by a qualified electrician, in accordance
with the latest I.E.E. Regulations and in regard to relevant Building
Regulations/BS Codes of Practice.
• Hard wired smoke or heat alarms require a constant 230V AC supply.
Battery Back-up models additionally require a healthy battery too.
• A healthy mains supply is indicated by a constant green L.E.D. (mains)
indicator.
• Test the alarm weekly by pressing (and holding) the test button.
The alarm and all those interconnected to it will sound.
• Vacuum your alarms regularly to reduce the likelihood of nuisance alarms,
caused by dust contamination.
• Never paint or expose alarm to water – this is a 230V alarm.
(If painting or building work is being carried out close to alarm, temporarily
cover with a plastic bag, or the dust cover supplied.)
• If the alarm chirps every 30-40 seconds, it indicates the battery needs
replacing. (If you are in rented property, advise your Landlord.)
Smoke and heat alarms will only function if properly selected, located,
installed and maintained as per KIDDE Fyrnetics instruction manuals.
3. Types of Alarm
a. Power Supply
•DC alarms
9V battery powered units, but will only function if battery is in good condition –
check regularly. (BS5839 Pt6: Grade F).
•AC/DC alarms
230V mains – for professional installation. Interconnectable to other Kidde
Fyrnetic AC Alarms, so all will sound when one is triggered. If mains power is
lost, will operate via battery power if batteries are fresh/properly installed.
Some models use replaceable 9V (PP3 type) batteries, others sealed-in
rechargeable/Long Life batteries. (BS5839 Pt6: Grade D). This type is the
minimum grade acceptable on new or materially altered dwellings.
ENVI ONMENTAL P OTECTION
Waste electrical products should not be disposed of with household
waste. Please recycle where facilities exist. Check with your Local
Authority or retailer for recycling advice.

b. Alarm Types
•Ionisation (Ion) alarms are the most common type and provide early detection,
especially against fast flaming fires. Most suitable for dining and living room
areas. Ion alarms contain 0.9 microcurie of Americium 241, a radioactive
material. UK Home Office and BS5839 Pt6 recommend however, that optical
alarms are also used especially in locations where steam or cooking fumes, from
a nearby room could cause nuisance alarms.
No one type of alarm is considered suitable for all locations.
•Optical (Photo-Electric) alarms are increasingly used and are less prone to
nuisance alarms from cooking fumes. They are therefore the recommended type
in BS5839 Pt6, for fitting near kitchen areas and on escape routes/circulation
spaces.

•Heat alarms are for use in areas where Ion or Optical smoke alarms would be
unsuitable e.g. kitchens, boiler rooms, garages. However, they must always be
used interconnected to smoke alarms – do not use in isolation. (They will
typically go into alarm when the temperature reaches 57°C.) Suitable for new
Building Regulations applicable 1/7/2000 regarding use in kitchens.
4. How to Operate/Test the Alarm
a. Operation and L.E.D. Status
• When your alarm is correctly installed to the mains supply, the green L.E.D. light
will be on. The red L.E.D. will blink about once a minute to indicate the sensor is
operating correctly. If the alarm senses products of combustion, it’s 85dB horn
will by activated. The red L.E.D. will flash rapidly on the alarm sensing
smoke/heat. (Other interconnected alarms will also sound to warn those in other
parts of the property.) This will continue until the sensor chamber is clear.
In the case of a heat alarm, it will be triggered when the temperature reaches
57°C and return to it’s standby mode when the temperature drops to normal
levels. On optical alarms if the red L.E.D. blinks every 30-40 seconds and the
alarm chirps inbetween, it indicates failure of the sensing chamber.
Regularly check and ensure that the green L.E.D. is lit – if not, check the
consumer unit/circuit breaker connection. As with previous point above, if in
doubt, consult an electrician or your Landlord.

b. Testing
• Utilise the test button to test the alarm. Do not use naked flames as this does not
replicate smoke and may cause physical damage to the alarm or ignite
combustible materials and start a structure fire.
Test all your alarms weekly – remember they are life saving devices, protecting
the family and home.
Press and hold the test button until the alarm sounds. All interconnected alarms
will also sound. (Do not stand too close to the alarm during testing – hearing
may be damaged.)
c. Hush Button
• If this feature is fitted temporarily desensitises the alarm circuit for
approximately 7 minutes. This feature is to be used only when a known alarm
condition, such as fumes from cooking, activates the alarm. The alarm is
desensitised by pushing the “HUSH” button on the alarm cover. If the smoke is
not too dense, the alarm will silence immediately and “chirp” every 30-40
seconds for approximately 7 minutes. This indicates that the alarm is in a
temporarily desensitised condition. The alarm will automatically reset after
approximately 7 minutes and sound the alarm if particles of combustion are still
present. The “HUSH” feature can be used repeatedly until the air has been
cleared of the condition causing the alarm. When several alarms are
interconnected, pushing the “Hush” button will hush all but the triggering alarm.
The triggering alarm is signified by a rapidly flashing red LED. For safety
reasons, the triggering alarm signal can only be silenced by activating the Hush
button on the unit.
Note: Dense smoke will override the hush control feature and sound a
continuous alarm.
Caution: Before using the alarm hush feature, identify the source of the smoke
and be certain a safe condition exists. (On heat alarms with hush, the alarms
sensor has detected a high temperature – e.g. 57°C. Check for possible causes
carefully.)
d. Nuisance Alarms
Warning: Persistent nuisance alarms indicates incorrect type and/or siting of
alarm. Review with your installer or Landlord after cleaning as described in
Section 7 (Maintenance).
5. Battery Checking/Changing*
a. Low Battery Indicator (AC models with loose battery only)
If you hear the alarm chirp continuously every 30-40 seconds
(and have not just pressed the hush button) it indicates the battery voltage is at
an unacceptably low level. Replace the battery at the next possible opportunity.
b. Battery Change
i. Firstly isolate the mains supply at the consumer unit by identifying the
appropriate circuit. This may be a dedicated fuse marked “Fire/Smoke
Alarms” or with a symbol such as .
(If you rent your property, your Landlord may arrange this service for you.)
The green L.E.D. should now be out. If not, recheck before proceeding.

G d Safety Habits
Develop and practice a plan of escape:
• Install and maintain Fire extinguishers on every level o the home and in the
kitchen, basement and garage. Know how to use a ire extinguisher prior to an
emergency.
• Current studies have shown smoke alarms may not awaken all sleeping
individuals, and that it is the responsibility o individuals in the household that
are capable o assisting others to provide assistance to those who may not be
awakened by the alarm sound, or to those who may be incapable o sa ely
evacuating the area unassisted.
• Make a loor plan indicating all doors and windows and at least two escape routes
rom each room. Second storey windows may need a rope or chain ladder.
• Have a amily meeting and discuss your escape plan, showing everyone what to
do in case o a ire.
• Determine a place outside your home where you can meet i a ire occurs.
• Familiarise everyone with the sound o the alarm and train them to leave your
home when they hear it.
• Practice a ire drill at least every six months, including ire drills at night. Ensure
that small children hear the alarm and wake when it sounds. They must wake up
in order to execute the escape plan. Practice allows all occupants to test your plan
be ore an emergency. You may not be able to reach your children. It is important
they know what to do.
What to do when the Alarm Sounds
• Alert small children in the home.
• Leave immediately by your escape plan. Every second counts, so don’t waste
time getting dressed or picking up valuables.
• In leaving, don’t open any inside door without irst eeling its sur ace. I hot, or
you see smoke seeping through cracks, don’t open that door!
Instead use your alternative exit.
• I the inside o the door is cool, place your shoulder against it, open it slightly and
be ready to slam it shut i heat and smoke rush in.
• Stay close to the loor i the air is smoky.Breathe shallowly through a cloth, wet i
possible.
• Once outside, go to your selected meeting place and make sure everyone is there.
• Call the ire brigade on 999 rom your neighbour’s home or a call box – not rom
yours.
• Don’t return to your home until the ire o icials say that it is all right to do so.
• There are situations where a smoke alarm may not be e ective to protect against
ire. For instance:
a) smoking in bed
b) leaving children unsupervised.
c) cleaning with lammable liquids, such as gasoline
d) ires where the victim is intimate with a laming initiated ire; or example,
when a person's clothes catch ire while cooking.
e) incendiary ires where the ire grows so rapidly that an occupant's egress is
blocked even with properly located detectors.

7. Maintenance
• Your alarm is a life saving device. Spending a
few minutes each month in vacuuming off any
excess dust will enhance it’s performance and
reduce the likelihood of nuisance alarms.
• Vacuum up to the grill and through the slots where dust/talc etc. can enter. Wipe
off with a very mildly damp cloth. Never use cleaning agents/polishes etc..
6. Checking Battery Back-up on Sealed In Long Life/Long Life Models
• There is no user replaceable battery on rechargeable/Long Life models. These
models will be indicated on the product’s label on the underside; additionally
there is no battery drawer. To check charge on these models, switch off the
alarms AC supply at the Consumer Unit/Fuse Box. The green L.E.D. will go out.
Push the test button to check battery only mode works. If the rechargeable
battery is depleted, the low battery beep will be heard once every 40 seconds. If
the alarm has received AC mains power for a minimum of 3 days prior to this,
you will need to have the unit changed by your installer or Landlord.
8. What to do in an Emergency
• If an alarm sounds without anyone pressing the test button you have a potential
emergency.
• Don’t panic – you will need to think clearly to ensure all family members escape
as soon as possible. Never stop to collect belongings etc. – they are replaceable.
• Check the temperature of door handles or doors to check if hot –
if hot do not open them – a fire will be raging the other side of the door.
Find an alternative escape route.
• Keep doors/windows closed to contain the fire after you have passed through
them.
•Call 999 from a neighbour’s phone or call box.
This is preferable to using a mobile.
• Do not re-enter the property until advised it is safe to do so by a
Fire Brigade Officer.
Always be aware of the dangers of fire and ensure your alarms
are functioning, together with equipment such as
fire extinguishers/fire blankets etc..
Never attempt to open the inside of the alarm –
this will invalidate it’s guarantee.
Deactivation: The alarms battery will chirp as detailed
above, when its power is low. If this lasts over 60
minutes, and is not a result of the HUSH button
being pressed, the alarm needs replacing.
However, to enable you to silence the alarm,
there is on the underside of the alarm, a
deactivation tab: see illustration.
To safely access the rear of the alarm, refer to Section 5.

9. Troubleshooting
• Always turn off the mains supply to AC alarms before checking connections etc..
Symptom
1. Green L.E.D. not lit
2. Frequent nuisance
alarms
3. Alarm chirps every 40
seconds
4. Alarm does not sound
when test button
pressed and held.
5. Interconnected alarms
do not sound when
test button is pressed
and held.
Possible cause/solutions
a. Loss of mains power – check at Consumer Unit
for Blown Fuse or tripped Circuit Breaker.
b. Check cable harness at back of alarm, is
properly plugged in (see Battery Changing”
section).
See sections 2,3, and 7. If sited incorredtly/not
requlary cleaned as section 11, nuisance alarms
can occur.
See section 5 (if the hush button has been pressed
the unit will chirp for 7 minutes to indicate it is in
hush mode).
See parts 1a and 1b above. Have installer re check
wiring if Green LED is illuminated, but alarm does
not appear to function. If no Green LED check
consumer unit. Alarm with still function on battery
power, if battery is in serviceable state. <Red LED
will blink about once a minute to confirm>. Check
via Test Button.
See part 1b above – consult a qualified electrician
or your Landlord to remedy as soon as possible.
10. Useful Hints
• Smoke/heat alarms can only operate correctly if smoke particles/heat reach the
unit. Correct selection/siting and installation are covered in the installers
manual.
•Building Regulations require new homes to have 1 hard wired smoke alarm per
floor and to be interlinked. From 2000 they will additionally require an interlinked
heat alarm to be fitted in most kitchens too. i.e. 3 alarms per property.
• With the exception of garages/kitchens/bathrooms it is recommended that
smoke alarms are fitted in every room and outside all sleeping areas too.
A professional electrician should be employed for all mains powered (hard
wired) alarms.
• If you are redecorating your home, paint fumes can contaminate the alarm –
temporarily cover the unit with a plastic bag (during this time the alarm will not
function). Never paint the alarm itself.
Only remove the bag when the paint is thoroughly dry.
• If you extend your property, review your alarm requirements.
• Smoke/heat alarms should be replaced every 10 years or sooner.
• These products are designed for domestically scaled premises.

13. Limitations of Smoke/Heat Alarms
Fire-warning equipment for residential occupancies are capable of protecting about half of the
occupants in potentially fatal fires. Victims are often intimate with the fire, too old or too young,
or physically or mentally impaired such that they cannot escape even when warned early
enough that escape should be possible. For these people, other strategies such as protection-
in-place or assisted escape or rescue would be necessary.
If the alarm is located outside the sleeping room or on a different floor, it may not wake up a
sound sleeper.
The use of alcohol or drugs may also impair one’s ability to hear the smoke alarm. For
maximum protection, a smoke alarm should be installed in each sleeping area on every level
of a home.
Warning! Smoke alarms are devices that can provide early warning of possible fires at a
reasonable cost; however, alarms have sensing limitations. Ionisation sensing alarms may
detect invisible fire particles (associated with fast flaming fires) sooner than photoelectric
alarms. Photoelectric sensing alarms may detect visible fire particles (associated with slow
smoldering fires) sooner than ionisation alarms. Home fires develop in different ways and are
often unpredictable. For maximum protection, Kidde recommends that both Ionisation and
Photoelectric alarms be installed.
Heat alarms are useful in areas with condensation/dust/high humidity, such as kitchens and
lofts. Heat alarms MUST ALWAYS be interconnected to smoke alarms.
Heat alarms are triggered when a temperature of 57ºC is reached - they are not suitable for use
as a fire safety device independendently, they must always be used in conjunction and
interconnected to smoke alarms.
Loose batteries, where fitted must be of the specified type, in good condition and installed
properly
AC only powered alarms will not operate if AC power has been cut off such as by an electrical
fire, an open fuse or loss of mains supply.
All alarms must be tested regularly to make sure the batteries and the alarm circuits are in
good operating condition.
Life safety from fire in residential occupancies is based primarily on early notification to
occupants of the need to escape, followed by the appropriate egress actions by those
occupants. Fire warning systems for dwelling units are capable of protecting about half of the
occupants in potentially fatal fires. Victims can be involved with the fire, too old or young, or
physically or mentally impaired such that they cannot escape even when warned early enough
that escape should be possible. For these people, other strategies such as protection-in-place
or assisted escape or rescue are necessary.
Smoke alarms cannot provide an alarm if smoke does not reach the unit. Therefore, smoke
alarms may not sense fires starting in chimneys, walls, on roofs, on the other side of a closed
door or on a different floor. If the alarm is located outside the bedroom or on a different floor,
it may not wake up a sound sleeper. Equally heat alarms will only be triggered if they are
correctly sited to detect heat. The use of alcohol or drugs may also impair ones ability to hear
the alarm. For maximum protection a smoke alarm should be installed in each sleeping area on
every level of a home. Hearing impaired occupier should consider fitting additional strobe
accessories to give a visual alarm.
Although smoke/heat alarms can help save lives by providing an early warning of a fire, they
are not a substitute for an insurance policy. Home owners and renters should have adequate
insurance to protect their property.
Fire-warning equipment for residential occupancies are capable of protecting about half of the
