Fire saFeTY Tips

Follow safety rules and prevent hazardous situations:

1) Use smoking materials properly. Never smoke in bed. 2) Keep matches or

lighters away from children; 3) Store flammable materials in proper containers;

4) Keep electrical appliances in good condition and don’t overload electrical

circuits; 5) Keep stoves, barbecue grills, fireplaces and chimneys grease-

and debris-free; 6) Never leave anything cooking on the stove unattended;

7) Keep portable heaters and open flames, like candles, away from flammable

materials; 8) Don’t let rubbish accumulate.

Keep alarms clean, and test them weekly. Replace alarms immediately if they

are not working properly. Smoke Alarms that do not work cannot alert you to a

fire. Keep at least one working fire extinguisher on every floor, and an additional

one in the kitchen. Have fire escape ladders or other reliable means of escape

from an upper floor in case stairs are blocked.

Important! Read “Recommended Locations for Smoke Alarms” and

“Locations to Avoid for Smoke Alarms” before beginning. This unit monitors

the air, and when smoke reaches its sensing chamber, it alarms. It can give

you more time to escape before fire spreads. This unit can ONLY give an

early warning of developing fires if it is installed, maintained and located

where smoke can reach it, and where all residents can hear it, as described

in this manual. This unit will not sense gas, heat, or flame. It cannot prevent

or extinguish fires.

Understand The Different Type of Smoke Alarms

Battery powered or electrical? Different Smoke Alarms provide different

types of protection. See “About Smoke Alarms” for details.

Know Where To Install Your Smoke Alarms

Fire Safety Professionals recommend at least one Smoke Alarm on every

level of your home, in every bedroom, and in every bedroom hallway or

separate sleeping area. See “Recommended Locations For Smoke Alarms”

and “Locations To Avoid For Smoke Alarms” for details.

Know What Smoke Alarms Can and Can’t Do

A Smoke Alarm can help alert you to fire, giving you precious time to

escape. It can only sound an alarm once smoke reaches the sensor.

See “Limitations of Smoke Alarms” for details.

Check Your Local Building Codes

This Smoke Alarm is designed to be used in a typical single-family home.

It alone will not meet requirements for boarding houses, apartment buildings,

hotels or motels. See “Special Compliance Considerations” for details.

*All First Alert® Smoke Alarms conform to regulatory requirements,

including UL217 and are designed to detect particles of combustion.

Smoke particles of varying number and size are produced in all fires.

Ionization technology is generally more sensitive than photoelectric

technology at detecting small particles, which tend to be produced in

greater amounts by flaming fires, which consume combustible materials

rapidly and spread quickly. Sources of these fires may include paper burning

in a wastebasket, or a grease fire in the kitchen.

Photoelectric technology is generally more sensitive than ionization

technology at detecting large particles, which tend to be produced

in greater amounts by smoldering fires, which may smolder for hours

before bursting into flame. Sources of these fires may include cigarettes

burning in couches or bedding.

For maximum protection, use both types of Smoke Alarms on each

level and in every bedroom of your home.

loCaTions To aVoid For sMoke alarMs

For best performance, it is recommended you AVOID installing Smoke

Alarms in these areas:

• Where combustion particles are produced. Combustion particles form

when something burns. Areas to avoid include poorly ventilated kitchens,

garages, and furnace rooms. Keep units at least 20 feet (6 meters) from

the sources of combustion particles (stove, furnace, water heater, space

heater) if possible. In areas where a 20-foot (6-meter) distance is not

possible – in modular, mobile, or smaller homes, for example – it is

recommended the Smoke Alarm be placed as far from these fuel-burning

sources as possible. The placement recommendations are intended to

keep these Alarms at a reasonable distance from a fuel-burning source,

and thus reduce “unwanted” alarms. Unwanted alarms can occur if a

Smoke Alarm is placed directly next to a fuel-burning source. Ventilate

these areas as much as possible.

• In air streams near kitchens. Air currents can draw cooking smoke into

the sensing chamber of a Smoke Alarm near the kitchen.

• In very damp, humid or steamy areas, or directly near bathrooms with

showers. Keep units at least 10 feet (3 meters) away from showers,

saunas, dishwashers, etc.

• Where the temperatures are regularly below 40˚ F (4.4˚ C) or above 100˚ F

(37.8˚ C), including unheated buildings, outdoor rooms, porches, or

unfinished attics or basements.

• In very dusty, dirty, or greasy areas. Do not install a Smoke Alarm directly

over the stove or range. Keep laundry room Smoke Alarms free of dust or

lint.

• Near fresh air vents, ceiling fans, or in very drafty areas. Drafts can blow

smoke away from the unit, preventing it from reaching the sensing

chamber.

• In insect infested areas. Insects can clog openings to the sensing

chamber and cause unwanted alarms.

• Less than 12 inches (305mm) away from fluorescent lights.

Electrical “noise” can interfere with the sensor.

• In “dead air” spaces. “Dead air” spaces may prevent smoke from

reaching the Smoke Alarm.

Avoiding Dead Air Spaces

“Dead air” spaces may prevent smoke from reaching the Smoke Alarm.

To avoid dead air spaces, follow the installation recommendations below.

On ceilings, install Smoke Alarms as close to the center of the ceiling as

possible. If this is not possible, install the Smoke Alarm at least 4 inches

(102 mm) from the wall or corner.

For wall mounting (if allowed by building codes), the top edge of Smoke

Alarms should be placed between 4 and 12 inches (102 and 305 mm) from

the wall/ceiling line, below typical “dead air” spaces.

On a peaked, gabled, or cathedral ceiling, install the first Smoke Alarm

within 3 feet (0.9 meters) of the peak of the ceiling, measured horizontally.

Additional Smoke Alarms may be required depending on the length, angle,

etc. of the ceiling’s slope. Refer to NFPA 72 for details on requirements for

sloped or peaked ceilings.

liMiTaTions oF sMoke alarMs

Smoke Alarms have played a key role in reducing deaths resulting from home

fires worldwide. However, like any warning device, Smoke Alarms can only

work if they are properly located, installed, and maintained, and if smoke

reaches them. They are not foolproof.

Smoke alarms may not waken all individuals. Practice the escape plan

at least twice a year, making sure that everyone is involved – from kids to

grandparents. Allow children to master fire escape planning and practice

before holding a fire drill at night when they are sleeping. If children or others

do not readily waken to the sound of the smoke alarm, or if there are infants

or family members with mobility limitations, make sure that someone is

assigned to assist them in fire drill and in the event of an emergency. It is

recommended that you hold a fire drill while family members are sleeping

in order to determine their response to the sound of the smoke alarm while

sleeping and to determine whether they may need assistance in the event

of an emergency.

Smoke Alarms cannot work without power. Battery operated units cannot

work if the batteries are missing, disconnected or dead, if the wrong type of

batteries are used, or if the batteries are not installed correctly. AC units

cannot work if the AC power is cut off for any reason (open fuse or circuit

breaker, failure along a power line or at a power station, electrical fire that

burns the electrical wires, etc.). If you are concerned about the limitations

of battery or AC power, install both types of units.

Smoke Alarms cannot detect fires if the smoke does not reach them.

Smoke from fires in chimneys or walls, on roofs, or on the other side of

closed doors may not reach the sensing chamber and set off the alarm.

That is why one unit should be installed inside each bedroom or sleeping

area—especially if bedroom or sleeping area doors are closed at night—and

in the hallway between them.

Smoke Alarms may not detect fire on another floor or area of the home.

For example, a stand-alone unit on the second floor may not detect smoke

from a basement fire until the fire spreads. This may not give you enough

time to escape safely. That is why recommended minimum protection is at

least one unit in every sleeping area, and every bedroom on every level of

your home. Even with a unit on every floor, stand-alone units may not provide

as much protection as interconnected units, especially if the fire starts in a

remote area. Some safety experts recommend installing interconnected

AC powered units with battery back-up (see “About Smoke Alarms”) or

professional fire detection systems, so if one unit senses smoke, all units

alarm. Interconnected units may provide earlier warning than stand-alone

units since all units alarm when one detects smoke.

Smoke Alarms may not be heard. Though the alarm horn in this unit meets

or exceeds current standards, it may not be heard if: 1) the unit is located

outside

a closed or partially closed door, 2) residents recently consumed

alcohol or drugs, 3) the alarm is drowned out by noise from stereo, TV, traffic,

air conditioner or other appliances, 4) residents are hearing impaired or sound

sleepers. Special purpose units, like those with visual and audible alarms,

should be installed for hearing impaired residents.

Smoke Alarms may not have time to alarm before the fire itself causes

damage,injury,ordeath,sincesmokefromsomefiresmaynotreach

the unit immediately. Examples of this include persons smoking in bed,

children playing with matches, or fires caused by violent explosions

resulting from escaping gas.

Smoke Alarms are not foolproof. Like any electronic device, Smoke Alarms

are made of components that can wear out or fail at any time. You must test

the unit weekly to ensure your continued protection. Smoke Alarms cannot

prevent or extinguish fires. They are not a substitute for property or life

insurance.

Smoke Alarms have a limited life. The unit should be replaced immediately

if it is not operating properly. You should always replace a Smoke Alarm

after 10 years from date of purchase. Write the purchase date on the space

provided on back of unit.

speCial CoMplianCe ConsideraTions

This Smoke Alarm is suitable for use in apartments, condominiums,

townhouses, hospitals, day care facilities, health care facilities, boarding

houses, group homes and dormitories provided a primary fire detection

system already exists to meet fire detection requirements in common areas

lobbies, hallways, or porches. Using this Smoke Alarm in common areas

may not provide sufficient warning to all residents or meet local fire

protection ordinances/regulations.

This Smoke Alarm alone is not a suitable substitute for complete fire

detection systems in places housing many people—like apartment buildings,

condominiums, hotels, motels, dormitories, hospitals, health care facilities,

nursing homes, day care facilities, or group homes of any kind. It is not a

suitable substitute for complete fire detection systems in warehouses,

industrial facilities, commercial buildings, and special-purpose non-residential

buildings which require special fire detection and alarm systems. Depending

on the building codes in your area, this Smoke Alarm may be used to provide

additional protection in these facilities.

In new construction, most building codes require the use of AC or AC/DC

powered Smoke Alarms only. In existing construction, AC, AC/DC, or DC

powered Smoke Alarms can be used as specified by local building codes.

Refer to NFPA 72 (National Fire Alarm and Signaling Code) and NFPA 101

(Life Safety Code), local building codes, or consult your Fire Department for

detailed fire protection requirements in buildings not defined as “households”.

HUD MAP Program

Certain HUD battery powered Smoke Alarm applications, especially those

that fall under HUD 223(f) MAP (Multi-family Accelerated Processing), may

require a 10 Year sealed tamper resistant battery. This alarm does not meet

that requirement. Substitute First Alert SA340B.

Battery (DC) operated Smoke Alarms: Provide protection even when

electricity fails, provided the batteries are fresh and correctly installed. Units

are easy to install, and do not require professional installation.

AC powered Smoke Alarms: Can be interconnected so if one unit senses

smoke, all units alarm. They do not operate if electricity fails.

AC with battery (DC) back-up: will operate if electricity fails, provided the

batteries are fresh and correctly installed. AC and AC/DC units must be

installed by a qualified electrician.

WIRELESS INTERCONNECT Smoke Alarms with battery (DC) back-up:

Interconnects with

all WIRELESS INTERCONNECT enabled Smoke and Smoke/CO Alarms

without wires or connectors, so when one alarm sounds, they all sound.

Will operate if electricity fails, provided the batteries are fresh and correctly

installed. Units are easy to install, and do not require professional installation.

Smoke Alarms for Solar or Wind Energy users and battery backup power

systems: AC powered Smoke Alarms should only be operated with true or

pure sine wave inverters. Operating this Smoke Alarm with most battery-

powered UPS (uninterruptible power supply) products or square wave or

“quasi sine wave” inverters . If you are not sure about will damage the Alarm

your inverter or UPS type, please consult with the manufacturer to verify.

Smoke Alarms for the hearing impaired: Special purpose Smoke Alarms

should be installed for the hearing impaired. They include a visual alarm and

an audible alarm horn, and meet the requirements of the Americans With

Disabilities Act. Can be interconnected so if one unit senses smoke, all units

alarm.

Smoke alarms are not to be used with detector guards unless the

combination has been evaluated and found suitable for that purpose.

All these Smoke Alarms are designed to provide early warning of fires if located,

installed and cared for as described in the user’s manual, and if smoke reaches

them. If you are unsure which type of Smoke Alarm to install, refer to Chapter

2 of the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Standard 72 (National

Fire Alarm and Signaling Code) and NFPA 101 (Life Safety Code). National

Fire Protection Association, One Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269-9101.

Local building codes may also require specific units in new construction or in

different areas of the home.

WhaT To do in Case oF Fire

• Don’t panic; stay calm. Follow your family escape plan.

• Get out of the house as quickly as possible. Don’t stop to get dressed or

collect anything.

• Feel doors with the back of your hand before opening them. If a door

is cool, open it slowly. Don’t open a hot door. Keep doors and windows

closed, unless you must escape through them.

• Cover your nose and mouth with a cloth (preferably damp). Take short,

shallow breaths.

• Meet at your planned meeting place outside your home, and do a head

count to make sure everybody got out safely.

• Call the Fire Department as soon as possible from outside. Give your

address, then your name.

• Never go back inside a burning building for any reason.

• Contact your Fire Department for ideas on making your home safer.

Alarms have various limitations. See “Limitations of Smoke Alarms” for

details.

Using The silenCe FeaTUre

The Silence Feature can temporarily quiet an unwanted alarm for up to

15 minutes. To use this feature, press the “Push to Test/Silence” button on

the cover. If the unit will not silence and no heavy smoke is present, or if

it stays in silence mode continuously, it should be replaced immediately.

The LED will continue to flash rapidly while in silence.

The Silence Feature does not disable the unit—it makes it temporarily

less sensitive to smoke. For your safety, if smoke around the unit is

dense enough to suggest a potentially dangerous situation, the unit will

stay in alarm or may re-alarm quickly. If you do not know the source of

the smoke, do not assume it is an unwanted alarm. Not responding to

analarmcanresultinpropertyloss,injury,ordeath.

silenCing The loW BaTTerY Warning

This silence feature can temporarily quiet the low battery warning “chirp” for

up to 8 hours. You can silence the low battery warning “chirp” by pressing

the Test/Silence button on the alarm cover.

Once the low battery warning “chirp” silence feature is activated, the unit

continues to flash the Green light twice a minute for 8 hours. After 8 hours, the

low battery “chirp” will resume. Replace the batteries as soon as possible;

this unit will not operate without battery power!

To deactivate this feature: Press the Test/Silence button again. The unit will

go into Test Mode and the low battery warning will resume (LED flashes and

unit sounds “chirp” once a minute).

To loCk The BaTTerY CoMparTMenT

regUlar MainTenanCe

This unit has been designed to be as maintenance free as possible, but there

are a few simple things you must do to keep it working properly.

• Test it at least once a week.

• Clean the Smoke Alarm at least once a month; gently vacuum off any

dust using your household vacuum’s soft brush attachment, and test the

Smoke Alarm after cleaning. Never use water, cleaners or solvents since

they may damage the unit.

• If the Smoke Alarm becomes contaminated by excessive dirt, dust and/or

grime, and cannot be cleaned to avoid unwanted alarms, replace the unit

immediately.

• Relocate the unit if it sounds frequent unwanted alarms. See “Locations

to Avoid For Smoke Alarms” for details.

• When the battery becomes weak, the Smoke Alarm unit will “chirp”

approximately once a minute (the low battery warning). This low battery

warning should last for up to 7 days, but you should replace the battery

immediately to continue your protection.

Choosing a replacement battery:

Your Smoke Alarm requires 2 “AA” batteries: Energizer E91 or Duracell MN1500.

These batteries are available at many local retail stores.

First Alert

® WIRELESS INTERCONNECT Technology is the easy, cost-

effective way to provide your family with whole-home safety. All WIRELESS

INTERCONNECT Alarms communicate with each other without wires or

connectors. When one Alarm sounds, they all sound. This provides your family

with an earlier warning of potential danger, and gives you more time to react.

The communication distance (range) between any two WIRELESS

INTERCONNECT Alarms is typically 50 feet (15 meters) inside of a home.

Some features of a home, such as the number of floors, number/size of

rooms, furniture and types of building materials used may reduce the range

of the Alarms. Examples include: suspended ceilings, ductwork, large

metallic appliances (refrigerators) and metal studs. A feature of WIRELESS

INTERCONNECT Alarms is that they operate as a mesh network. All

Alarms will repeat any alarm signal that is received to all other WIRELESS

INTERCONNECT Alarms. Interference from structural conditions can be

overcome by adding additional Alarms to route the wireless signal around

obstructions.

• Therangeandproperoperationofanywirelessdevicewillvary

depending on its surroundings. It is very important that each Alarm is

tested individually before and after installation to make sure that all

Alarms respond properly.

• TheWIRELESS INTERCONNECT Alarms are not to be used outdoors

or to transmit between buildings. The Alarms will not communicate

properly under these conditions.

• Metalobjectsandmetallicwallpapermayinterferewithsignalsfrom

wireless Alarms. Alarms should be tested after changes to your

home such as remodeling, moving furniture, and with metal doors

opened and closed.

Your First Alert® WIRELESS INTERCONNECT Smoke Alarm will automatically

communicate potential fires with all other First Alert® WIRELESS

INTERCONNECT Smoke Alarms.

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by BRK Brands, Inc.

Installing Smoke Alarms in Single-Family Residences

The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), recommends one Smoke

Alarm on every floor, in every sleeping area, and in every bedroom. In new

construction, the Smoke Alarms must be AC powered and interconnected.

See “Agency Placement Recommendations” for details. For additional

coverage, it is recommended that you install a Smoke Alarm in all rooms,

halls,

storage areas, finished attics, and basements, where temperatures normally

remain between 40˚ F (4.4˚ C) and 100˚ F (37.8˚ C). Make sure no door or

other obstruction could keep smoke from reaching the Smoke Alarms.

More specifically, install Smoke Alarms:

• On every level of your home, including finished attics and basements.

• Inside every bedroom, especially if people sleep with doors closed.

• In the hall near every sleeping area. If your home has multiple sleeping

areas, install a unit in each. If a hall is over 40 feet (12 meters) long, install

an alarm at each end.

• At the top of the first-to-second floor stairway, and at bottom of basement

stairway.

Specific requirements for Smoke Alarm installation vary from state to state

and from region to region. Check with your local Fire Department for current

requirements in your area. It is recommended AC or AC/DC units be

interconnected for added protection.

the alarm is in, pushing the button provides different functions such as

testing the alarm, silencing the alarm, re-testing the alarm when in silence and

clearing the Latching features.

Two Silence Features. Temporarily silence low battery chirp for up to eight

hours before replacing low battery or silence an unwanted alarm for several

minutes.

Two Latching Features. Alarm Latch: Easily identifies initiating alarm even

after alarm condition has subsided. Low Battery Latch: Identifies which unit

is in low battery condition.

Perfect Mount System includes a gasketless base for easy installation and

a mounting bracket that keeps the alarm secure over a wide rotation range

to allow for perfect alignment.

laTChing FeaTUres

Alarm Latch is activated after an Alarm is exposed to alarm levels of smoke.

After smoke levels drop below alarm levels, the Red LED will begin to “Smoke”

flash On for 2 seconds/Off for 2 seconds. It will continue to flash or “latch” for

about 15 minutes, to give you time to determine which unit initiated the alarm.

Low Battery Latch is activated when the Alarm is in the “low battery condition”.

When this occurs, the LED flashes Green On for 2 seconds/Off for 2 Power

seconds for about 15 minutes. This feature is designed to help you identify

which Alarm needs to have the battery replaced. Although, the Alarm will

sound the low battery chirp approximately once every minute, sometimes

during the initial stages of “low battery”, the Alarm will chirp in greater

intervals than one minute, sometimes up to several hours, until the battery

reaches a steady low battery level. This innovative feature eliminates the

frustration of waiting for and/or identifying which unit is chirping.
