Safety Information
IMPORTANT!
1. Dangers, warnings, and cautions alert you to important operating instructions or to potentially
hazardous situations. Pay special attention to these situations.
2. This alarm is not intended to alert hearing impaired individuals. The use of alcohol or drugs may
also impair one’s ability to hear the smoke alarm.
3. Fires in chimneys, walls, roofs, different levels or behind closed doors might not be detected.
4. This device does NOT detect flames, heat, carbon monoxide or other hazardous gases.
WARNING!
1. Never ignore any alarm. Failure to respond can result in serious injury or death.
2. The silence feature is only for your convenience and will not correct a problem. Always check
your home for a potential problem after any alarm. Failure to do so can result in injury or death.
3. Test this smoke alarm once a week. If the alarm ever fails to test correctly, replace it immediately!
If the alarm cannot work properly, it will not alert you to a problem.
Set up and Interconnect Smoke Alarms
All the XS01-W contains an inbuilt RF module, and enables you to wirelessly connect two or more

smoke alarms and create an interlink network. When one unit is triggered, all interconnected units will
give an alarm.
NOTES
1. The XS01-W wireless smoke alarms in one multi-pack have been interconnected.
2. Test all the wireless smoke alarms to ensure they’re interconnected before
installation.
How to Interconnect
1. Attach all the wireless smoke alarms that need to be interconnected in the house to the mounting
bracket and turn clockwise to lock the alarms and activate them (see the sections of “Installation
Position” and “Installation Method”). Make sure these alarms are powering on.
2. Hold down the test/silence button of one smoke alarm for 3 seconds, and the red LED will flash
slowly. Hold down the button again for 3 seconds, the red LED will flash rapidly, and this alarm
will start sending out a RF signal to other smoke alarms.
3. Hold down the test/silence button on other smoke alarms for 3 seconds, they will receive the RF
signal to start interconnecting and the red LED will flash slowly. After interconnecting successfully,
they will beep once and automatically exit the interconnecting mode.
4. Test the smoke alarm according to the steps in the section “Alarm Test”.
NOTES
1. The initiating smoke alarm will send out a RF signal for 60 seconds while the red LED will keep
on flashing. After 60 seconds, repeat step 2-3 to connect alarms. If needed, manually press the
test/silence button to stop sending out a RF signal, the red LED will stop flashing and the alarm
enter the normal status.
2. A maximum of 24 wireless smoke alarms can be interconnected.
3. Note that XS01-W can only be interconnected with X-SENSE wireless smoke alarms.
How to Disconnect
Hold down the test/silence button for 3 seconds, then continuously hold down the button twice, the
smoke alarm will sound once and get disconnected.

Alarm Test
The alarm must be properly attached to the mounting bracket before it can be tested.
If your XS01-W is interconnected with other wireless smoke alarms, we recommend that every
individual smoke alarm is tested during the weekly test.
Test a single alarm
Test all interconnected smoke alarms
Action
Press the test/silence button.
Press the test/silence button twice on any
interconnected smoke alarm.
Indication
⚫The alarm will sound 3 short quick
beeps.
⚫The red LED will flash once every
second during the audible signal.
⚫The initiating smoke alarm will give 1
short quick beep with the red LED
flashing rapidly once every 0.25
seconds;
⚫Other interconnected alarms will sound 3
short quick beeps with the red LED
flashing once every second;
⚫The red LED of the initiating smoke
alarm will flash rapidly once every 0.25
seconds when it's sending out a signal
and stop flashing when all other
interconnected alarms finish receiving
the signal. Then you can test again.
NOTES:
The test function accurately tests the alarm’s smoke sensing circuit without the need of test smoke. If
your smoke alarm fails to give an audible test signal, please refer immediately to the troubleshooting
guide at the end of this manual.

Installation Positioning
NOTE: Kitchen should be covered by smoke alarms equipped with silence mode.
1. Prioritize the installation of a detector in the bedroom and walkways, and make sure you can hear
the alarm from all sleeping areas. In a home with several bedrooms, install an alarm in every
bedroom. If you install only one smoke alarm in your home, install the alarm near to all bedrooms
where possible, and not in a basement or furnace room.
2. Install an alarm above the stairway and on every floor of the house.
3. Smoke, heat and anything burning will spread horizontally after rising to the ceiling, so install the
alarm in the middle of the ceiling where possible. Ensure that the detector is installed at the
minimum distance away from corner.
4. If an alarm cannot be installed in the middle of a ceiling, install it at a distance of 20 inches (50 cm)
away from the corners of the room.
5. If an alarm is installed onto a wall, a distance of 4-12 inches (10-30 cm) should be kept below the
ceiling.
6. If the length of a room or hall is beyond 30 feet (900 cm), several alarms should be installed in the
same space.
7. When the wall or ceiling is angled, the alarm needs to be installed minimum 3 feet (90 cm) away
from the highest wall or ceiling point in the room.

8. In multi–level houses or apartments, install at least one wireless smoke alarm on each level and
keep them installed in a straight line and keep as few obstacles between each of the interconnected
alarms to ensure optimal signal transmission.

Locations to Avoid:
1. Near large metal surfaces and bundle of wire.
2. Near fluorescent lights, amateur radios, electrical equipment or other devices which may transmit
an RF signal, as electronic “noise” may cause nuisance alarms.
WARNING!
1. This alarm should be installed by a competent person.
2. Alarms should not be used as a substitute for proper installation, use and maintenance of fuel
burning appliances including appropriate ventilation and exhaust systems.
Installation Method
1. Use the mounting bracket to mark the screw holes on the ceiling or the wall.
2. Drill holes at the two marks using an appropriately-sized drill bit. Insert the anchor plugs and
screw the mounting bracket using the screws provided.
3. Attach the alarm to the mounting bracket and turn clockwise to lock the alarm.
4. Test the smoke alarm according to the steps in the section “Alarm Test”.

NOTE: Before installation, it’s recommended to test the interconnected smoke alarms in different
rooms where you intend to install these alarms to ensure they are in the transmission range.

alarm. But the initiating smoke alarm can’t be silenced by pressing the silence button of any
other interconnected alarm.
2. Under interconnected condition, the initiating smoke alarm can’t be triggered again during
the 9-minute silence duration. But other interconnected alarms can be triggered when
detecting dangerous smoke levels during the silence mode.

Maintenance
To keep your smoke alarm in good working order, follow these simple steps:
1. Verify the unit's alarm sound and indicator are working properly by testing the unit once a week.
2. As a minimum your smoke alarm should be cleaned once every 3 months: Remove the unit from
the ceiling and clean the alarm cover and vents with your vacuum cleaner fitted with the soft brush
attachment to remove dust and dirt.
3. Never use detergents or other solvents to clean the unit.
4. Avoid spraying air fresheners, hair spray or other aerosols near the alarm.
5. Do not paint the unit. Paint will seal the vents and interfere with the sensor’s ability to detect fire.
6. Never attempt to disassemble the unit or clean inside. Doing so will void your warranty.
7. When removed, place the smoke alarm back in its proper location as soon as possible, to assure
continuous protection from fire.
8. When household cleaning supplies or similar contaminants are used, the area should be ventilated.
