Snoos Heat Alarm User manual

All alarms that need to be connected in the
house should be put into ‘Learn Mode’ by sliding
the switch on the back of the alarm to the ‘Learn
Mode’ position.
The red LED will light up to indicate that ‘Learn
Mode’ has been selected.
Please note that when the alarms are placed
in ‘Learn Mode’ they can’t be inserted into the
mounting base.
Do not take out the battery during ‘Learn Mode’ as
this will interrupt the learn process.
Press and hold the test button at one alarm only,
until it beeps and the LED flashes. This alarm will
become the master and will start sending out a
specific house code to the other alarms.
As the other alarms receive the specific house
code, they will also flash the LED light.
When all alarms flash the red LED, they are
connected and can be switched out of ‘Learn
Mode’ and installed.

Please note that only the originating alarm’s

9. PAUSE/HUSH FUNCTION:
If the heat alarms are to set into a false alarm
by cooking, fireplace, etc. they can be paused
for 10 minutes by pressing the test button on
the originating heat alarm only (indicated by the
flashing LED).
The reason of this is that it is necessary to locate
the source of the alarm before using the hush
function. This is to make sure that it is not a life
threatening situation.
10. ADD EXTRA DEVICE:
The system can consist of a combination of
up to 32 smoke, heat and flood detectors
To link them together, place all alarms into
‘Learn Mode’ and repeat section 1.
Always test connection to all devices by repeating
test function section 6 after adding devices.
11. LOW BATTERY SIGNAL:
Your product has a 5Y battery life.
When the battery is starting its end of life, a short
beep will sound out every 48 seconds for 30 days.
The alarm effected by the low battery will only
beep, no other connected alarms will sound.
It is safe to change batteries in the alarms without
going through the learn process again – they will
not forget the codes during the battery change
process.
12. BATTERY REPLACEMENT:
To replace the battery, detach the heat alarm from
the mounting base by twisting counterclockwise.
Replace the battery respecting the polarities.
Attach the alarm in the mounting base by twisting
clockwise until it clicks, and test the alarm.
13. TROUBLE SHOOTING:
If you are experiencing false alarms with just general
cooking, you may have your heat alarm too close
to the cooking hobs and stove. Try reinstalling
slightly further away to alleviate any issues.
If the heat alarm does not work when the test button
is pushed, the probable cause is a faulty battery.
Check if the battery is worn out and replace it.
