Please pay attention to the fact that during network inclusion, the
distance between sensor and Gateway may not exceed 0.5 m.
3. Networking button
Press the networking button (with-
in the hole) for 2 seconds until the
green LED starts to flash fast, then
let go. The device will be detected
and included into the network.
4. Installation
of the Smoke Sensor
Select a place for installation.
5. Screw the bracket to
the ceiling OR remove the
protective cover from the
adhesive pad and stick
the bracket to the ceiling.
6. Attach the sensor to
the bracket by turning
it clockwise.
This is a smart smoke sensor which is based on the ZigBee Wireless Network-
ing technology. It has a very low power consumption which makes for longer
battery life. As soon as the sensor detects smoke, the alarm signal will sound
and the red LED will start to flash.
Network inclusion
1. Remove the protective battery cover.
To do so, remove the sensor from the
bracket by turning it counter-clockwise.
2. Put the Gateway into inclusion mode
7. Network removal of the device
Put the Gateway into removal mode by choosing „Home setup“ in the main
menu and then click on „Add device“ (See images on the left). Then reset the
device to default settings.
8. Reset to default settings (Reset)
Press the networking button for 5 seconds until the green LED starts to flash

Important information
• This smoke sensor is only suitable for smoke detection. It cannot detect gas,
heat or flames and cannot prevent or put out fires.
• This smoke sensor is not suitable for use in places with high humidity (e.g.
bathrooms) or kitchens.
• Correct functioning of the smoke sensor should be checked regularly.
• The smoke sensor should be cleaned regularly in order to prevent malfunc-
tion due to dust and dirt.
• Smoke sensors have to be replaced after 10 years of use.
• In case that the smoke sensor does not function correctly, do not try to
repair it yourself. Please contact the manufacturer.

Test mode
It is recommended to check correct functioning of the sensor at least once a week. To
do so, please press and hold the button Test for 3 seconds until the alarm signal sounds.
Never check correct functioning of the sensor by holding it over a flame.
Replacing the battery
Under normal conditions, battery power can last up to 3 years. However, batteries
should still be replaced regularly, at the very least when the sensor indicates low bat-
tery. Upon replacing the battery, please make sure to position it correctly.
Problem Possible cause Solution
The alarm is triggered even though there is no
smoke
The sensor is dirty or covered in dust Clean the sensor carefully using warm water and a
soft brush
The device peeps twice at regular intervals Low battery Replace the battery
The alarm tone does not sound or is very weak Low battery Replace the battery
The alarm does not sound upon pressing the Test
button
Battery is not positioned correctly in the bracket or
is positioned the wrong way
Position the battery correctly paying attention to
the + and - poles
Low battery Replace the battery
The device is not available in the network Low battery Replace the battery
The distance between the smoke sensor and the
Gateway is too large for wireless networking
1. Install a repeater
2. Position the Gateway closer to the sensor
Network inclusion of the smoke sensor failed The sensor is still connected to another network Please carry out a reset
The Gateway has not been put into inclusion mode Put the Gateway into inclusion mode
Choosing a Suitable Location
For complete coverage in residential units, Smoke Sensors should be installed in all
rooms, halls, storage areas, basements and attics in each family living unit. Minimum
coverage is one sensor on each floor and one in each sleeping area.
1. Install Smoke Sensor as close to the center of ceiling as possible. If this is not practi-
cal, put the sensor on the ceiling, no closer than 6inches(15 cm) from any wall or
corner and no closer than 12inches(30 cm) from any lamp or other object.
2. If some of your rooms have sloped, peaked, or gabled ceilings, try to mount sensors
3 feet(0.9 meter) measure horizontally from the highest point of ceiling.
Nuisance alarms take place when Smoke Sensors are installed where they will
no work properly. To avoid nuisance alarms, do not install Smoke Sensors in
the following situations:
• Combustion particles are the by-products of something that is burning. Thus,
in or near areas where combustion particles are present you do not install
the Smoke Sensors to avoid nuisance alarms, such as kitchens with few
windows or poor ventilation, garages where there may be vehicle exhaust,
near furnaces, hot water heaters, and space heaters.
• Do not install Smoke Sensors less than 20 feet (6 meters) away from places
where combustion particles are normally present, like kitchens. If a 20-foot
distance is not possible, try to install the alarm as far away from the combus-
tion particles as possible, preferably on the wall. To prevent nuisance alarm
alarms, provide good ventilation in such places.
• In very dusty or dirty areas, dirt and dust can build up on the alarm’s sen-
sing chamber, to make it overly sensitive. Additionally, dust or dirt can block
openings to the sensing chamber and keep the alarm from sensing smoke.
• Near fluorescent lights, electrical “noise” from fluorescent lights may cause
nuisance alarms. Install Smoke Sensor at least 5 feet(1.5 meters) from such
lights.
• If used in rooms and buildings whose structure is made up of a lot of metal
and concrete, the wireless signal range of the smoke sensor may suffer
significantly.
