This Heat Alarm is not a Smoke Alarm. This unit is not suitable protection
when used alone. Do not use this unit as the only means of fire detection
in a home. This unit is intended for use as a supplement to Smoke
Alarms.
Heat Alarms are not life safety devices.
Heat Alarms are intended for use as supplements to Smoke Alarms.
Because this unit cannot detect smoke, carbon monoxide or other toxic gases,
do not rely solely on this Heat Alarm in a fire emergency. Slow developing fires
may produce smoke and toxic gasses without a significant increase in room
temperatures. For this reason, Heat Alarms are only to be installed as
supplementary protection with Smoke Alarms.
Heat Alarms cannot work without power.AC powered Heat Alarms and
Smoke Alarms 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.).
ACunits 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.
Heat Alarms for Solar or Wind Energy users and battery backup power
systems:ACpowered Heat Alarms should only be operated with true or pure
sine wave inverters. Operating this Heat Alarm with most battery-powered
UPS (uninterruptible power supply) products or square wave or “quasi sine
wave” inverters will damage the Alarm.If you are not sure about your inverter
or UPS type, please consult with the manufacturer to verify.
Heat Alarms cannot sense fires if the heat does not reach them.Heat
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 on every floor, in the attic, basement and garage and
only as a supplement to Smoke Alarms.
Heat Alarms may not sense heat from a fire on another level of the home.
Example: a stand-alone unit on the second floor may not detect heat from a
fire in a crawl space until the fire spreads. This may not give you enough time
to escape safely. That is why recommended minimum protection is at least
one Smoke Alarm on every level of your home and Heat Alarms in any areas
not suitable for Smoke Alarms. 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. Interconnected units may provide earlier
warning than stand-alone units since all units alarm when one senses heat
or smoke.
Heat Alarms may not be heard. The alarm horn loudness meets or exceeds
the current UL standard. However, if the device is installed outside the bed-
room, it may not wake up a sound sleeper or one who has recently used
drugs or has been drinking alcoholic beverages. This is especially true if the
door is closed or only partly open. Even persons who are awake may not
hear the alarm horn if the sound is blocked by distance or closed doors.
Noise from traffic, stereo, radio, television, air conditioner, or other appliances
mayalso prevent alert persons from hearing the alarm horn. This alarm
device is not intended for people who are hearing impaired.
Heat Alarms may not have time to alarm before the fire itself causes
damage, injury, or death, since heat 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.
This Heat Alarm is not foolproof.Like any electronic device, Heat 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. Heat Alarms cannot prevent
or extinguish fires. They are not a substitute for property or life insurance.
Heat Alarms have a limited life.The unit should be replaced immediately if it
is not operating properly. In no case should it be used for more than 10 years.
