LINKING SMOKE DETECTORS USING AN INTERCONNECT-CABLE
You can link smoke detectors of the same type with a cable. To link them, do not use the earthing cable, but ensure you have an extra cable
placed inside your ceiling for this purpose. Preferably use a (harmonized) wire with a diameter of 1,5 or 2,5 mm2 (H05V-U / H07V-U). Follow the
same safety standards for this interconnection cable as you would for installation of mains power cables. The interconnect-cable will lead a high
voltage from one smoke alarm to the next. It relays the signal by using the 0/neutral cable and the interconnect cable. If you switched the 0 and
phase cables during installation the detectors will sound the alarm constantly. By using this link function all devices will give alarm when one device
detects smoke. You can connect a maximum of 12 devices and link-operation is guaranteed as long as all devices are connected to the same
end-group and no switches are part of the same group.
To ensure you know the smoke detectors are inactive in case of power failure, ensure a vital part of your lighting is attached to the same power
group. Please view national standards for proper installation procedure.
USE, TESTING AND MAINTENANCE:
Use: The smoke detectors is operational if the 230V mains power is connected, the 9V backup battery is placed and the SA-240 is mounted to
the ceiling. The SA-240 can only be attached to the ceiling plate if the backup battery is placed. If the device is operational the green LED will
continously light. The red LED will blink every 40 sec. to indicate the backup battery is ok. Once smoke is detected, the alarm will sound. Once
the smoke disappears, the smoke alarm will stop automatically.
Test:
Hold the test key for at least 2 seconds. The operation is still correct if you hear 2 or three signal tones. Check the smoke detectors weekly. In
alarm status the smoke detector will generate about 85dB(A). Do not use candles, open re or cigarettes to test the smoke detector. Test the
link-function by holding the test-button even longer. The other detectors will now start beeping.
ATTENTION:
• If the cause of an alarm is unclear, assume it’s caused by re. Immediately evacuate the building.
• Keep the smoke detectors out of range of children.
• Protect against dust during rennovations. Without protection the smoke detectors will lose their functionality.
Maintenance:
The smoke detector is maintenance-free. In very dusty rooms they may be cleaned by vacuum.
PLAN AN ESCAPE ROUTE:
• Make a map and mark all locations of doors and windows and a possible escape route. Note that you may need an escape ladder on high
oors.
• Ensure everyone in the house knows the sound the smoke alarms produce and regularly practice use of the escape route.
• Leave the house immediately according to the plan when hearing the alarm. Every second counts: so respond quickly. If you do not notice
smoke or heat, check if everyone in the house is in a secure location.
• Do not open any doors without feeling wether the door is warm or if there is smoke coming from underneath the doors. If it is, do not open
that door. If the door is cold, put your shoulder rmly against the door and open it a small amount to check for any heat or smoke rst.
• If there is much smoke, keep low and take shallow breaths, preferably through a moist towel. Call the re department as soon as you are
safe outside.
REPLACING THE BATTERY:
The detector is supplied using a 9Volt blok battery. Only use the recommended type GoldPeak GP1604A, GoldPeak GP1604S, Raymax 6LR61
or EVE CR9V/P. Under normal conditions the battery will last at least one year. If it is about to need replacement, the smoke detector will make
a chirping sound every 60 seconds for at least 30 days. Disconnect mains power before you replace the battery.
Pay attention to the polarity when replacing batteries. Test the detector after every battery replacement. If the smoke detector does not function,
please contact your supplier.
ENVIRONMENT:
Do not throw away used batteries, but recycle them using your local chemical depot. Product may not be thrown out as normal
