DSW108D

Smoke Alarm User’s Manual

DSW108D are photoelectric smoke alarms, they are generally more effective at detecting smoldering fires which smolder for hours before bursting into flame. Sources of these fires may include cigarettes burning in couches of bedding. DSW108D accords with the ISO/DIS 12239 Standard.

IMPORTANT! PLEASE READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP IT.

This user’s manual contains important information about your smoke alarm’s operation. To insure your safety, you need install one alarm at least in your every single room. Please don’t open the smoke alarm for that may cause improper effect.

WHERE NOT TO INSTALL SMOKE ALARMS

1. Where combustion particles are produced. Combustion particles form when something burns. Avoid installing in the areas include poorly ventilated kitchens, garages, and furnace rooms. Keep units at least 6m from the sources of combustion particles(stove,furnace,water heater, space heater)if possible.

Ventilate these areas as much as possible.

2. In air streams near kitchens. Air currents can draw cooking smoke into the sensing chamber of a smoke alarm near the kitchen.

3. In very damp, humid or steamy areas, or directly near bathrooms whith showers. Keep units at least 3m away from showers saunas, dishwhashers, etc.

4. Where the temperatures are regularly below 40 F(4 C)or o above 100F(38 C),including unheated buildings, outdoor rooms, porches, or unfinished attics or basements.

5. In very dusty, dirty, or greasy areas. Don’t install a smoke alarm directly over the stove or range. Clean a laundry room unit frequently to keep it free of dust or lint.

6. 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.

7. In insect infested areas. Insects can clog openings to the sensing chamber and cause unwanted alarms.

8. Less than 305ram away from fluorescent lights. Electrical

“noise” can interfere with the sensor.

9. In “dead air” space, for example, in Diagram 1,near the corner less than 10cm.

10. If you have a smoking meeting room, don’t install the alarm there for the unit will alarm when several persons smoke;

4. Install one alarm beside every electric facility.

5. Install smoke alarms in the middle of ceiling, because smog, heat and flashes always lift to the top of rooms

6. If some reasons cause you can’t install them in the middle of ceiling, you need to install them at least 10cm away from the wall.

7. If you like to install them on the wall, they should be installed

10-30.5cm away under the ceiling. Diagram 1.

8. You need install more than one alarm when the length of your hall exceeds 9m.

9. In an ablique roof room, install the alarm 0.9m away from the top. Diagram 2.

10. How to install smoke alarms in a removable house. The removable house is short of heat isolation, so you’d better install the alarm 10-30.5cm away from the ceiling. for safety you need install another one near your bedroom, too.

Tools you will need:

* Pencil

* Drill with 6.5ram drill bit

* Standard/Flathead screwdrive

*Hammerr

1. Hold base firmly and push the hinge in then turn anticlockwise,so release the base down.

2. Hold the smoke alarm base against the ceiling (or wall) and make a mark at the center of each of the mounting slots with a pencil.

3. Place the unit where it won’t get covered with dust when you drill the mounting holes.

4. Using a 6.5mm drill bit, drill a hole through each pencil mark into 35mm deep.

5. Insert the plastic screw anchors into the holes and tap them gently with a hammer. Tighten the 3*30 screws into the screw anchors, then loosen them two turns.

6. Slide the smoke alarm base up to the screw heads end up in the narrow ends of the mounting slots, then tighten the screws completely.

7. Insert the 9V battery into the the box, make sure the red pry is under the battery, so the battery is stable. Diagram 3.

signal will flash once 0.5 second.

3. If the alarm makes low “chirp” sounds every about 30seconds, it tells you to exchange your battery.

4. Little smoke will not cause alarms, so misinformation occurs only when you blow smoke to the alarms directly or you forget to turn on your ventilated facility while your cooking.

Lithium: ULTRALIFE U9VL

5. When regularly checking, you should save energy as possible as you can, because the alarm energy consumption is very much.

Special attention:

1) Choose durable battery as possible as you can that will make battery’s using time longer.

2) Notice whether the indicator lamp flash once 45sec normally or not. There is two reasons that the indicator lamp don’t flash.

One is that the battery’s energy is shortage, the other is that the battery is not fixed fitly. The simple way is to replace the battery or refix the battery.

6. After installation you must notice whether the key indicator flash once 45sec or not, and press the key for several seconds to see whether the buzzer can give sound or not, if do, that shows normal. Above is required to do, otherwise the smoke alarm you installed probably don’t work.

LIMITATIONS OF SMOKE ALARMS

1. United States NFPA72 tells that the safety of life is to be noticed by alarms before fire, to confirm the correct escape way.

The fire systems help half of residents escape and we should help the old people, women and children more because they are always the victims.

2. Smoke alarms are not foolproof, they can't prevent or extinguish fires, they are not substitute for property or life insurance. You need buy some fire fighting facilities.

3. Sometimes the smoke is blocked by objects and can’t reach the detector, and if the wind blows the smoke away from the detector, the unit won’t work either.
