OPERATION, TESTING & MAINTENANCE

OPERATION: The smoke alarm is operating once the battery is connected. When products of combustion are sensed, the unit sounds a loud alarm which continues until the air is cleared.

This alarm incorporates the internationally recognized horn signal for evacuation. During alarm mode, the horn produces three short beeps followed by a two second pause and then repeats.

FALSE ALARMS "SILENCE" CONTROL: Units with the "silence" feature have the capability of temporarily reducing the sensitivity of the alarm circuit for approximately 8 minutes. This feature is to be used only when a known alarm condition such as smoke from cooking activates the smoke alarm. The smoke alarm is deactivated by pushing the test button on the smoke alarm cover for at least three seconds. The smoke alarm will automatically reduce sensitivity and "beep" every 30-40 seconds for approximately 8 minutes to indicate the alarm is in the temporary silent condition. The smoke alarm will gradually reactivate during the 8 minutes and sound the alarm if particles of combustion are still present. The "silence" feature may be used repeatedly until the air has cleared.

CAUTION: Before using the alarm "silence" feature, identify the source of smoke and be certain that safe conditions exist.

STANDBY CONDITION: The red LED (SS-776-LR only) flashes once every 40-60 seconds to indicate the unit is properly functioning.

LOCAL ALARM CONDITION: The red LED (SS-776-LR only) flashes rapidly and the unit emits a loud, pulsating alarm sound.

TESTING: Test by pushing the test button on the smoke alarm cover until the alarm sounds, then release. The alarm sounds if all electronic circuitry, horn and battery are working. The alarm may continue to sound for up to 10 seconds after the button is released. If no alarm sounds, the unit may have a defective battery or other failure. Test the smoke alarm weekly to assure proper operation.

NEVER use an open flame of any kind to test this unit. You might accidentally damage or set fire to the unit or to your home. The built-in test switch accurately tests the unit's operation as required by Underwriters Laboratories Inc. (UL).

If you choose to use an aerosol smoke product to test the smoke alarm, be certain to use one that has been Listed to Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. Safety Standards and use it only as directed. Use of non-UL Listed products or improper use of UL Listed products may affect the smoke alarm's sensitivity.

RV INSTALLATION -

WARNING: TEST SMOKE ALARM OPERATION AFTER VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN STORAGE, BEFORE EACH TRIP, AND AT LEAST ONCE PER WEEK DURING USE. An identical marking is to be provided by the recreational vehicle manufacturer that shall be permanent and located, visibly, within 24 inches (610mm) of the smoke alarm.

MAINTENANCE: The smoke alarm is virtually maintenance free. However, under dusty conditions, a vacuum hose may be used to clear the sensing chamber of dust.

The smoke alarm uses a 9 Volt carbon-zinc battery. The battery should last for at least one year under normal operating conditions. The smoke alarm has a low battery indicator, an audible "beep." It will operate at 30-40 second intervals for a minimum of 7 days. When this indication occurs, replace the battery with an Alkaline type (Eveready Energizer #522, Duracell #MN1604), Carbon- Zinc type (Gold Peak #1604P, Eveready #216).

REPAIRS AND SERVICES

The smoke alarm contains less than 1 microcurie (37 kilobecquerel) of Americium 241, a radioactive material. The distribution of these ionization-type smoke alarms is licensed by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission; the consumer is exempt from any licensing or requirements. If the smoke alarm is defective in any way, do not tamper with the unit. Return the unit for servicing. (See warranty for instructions or in-warranty returns.) There will be a service charge for repairing out of warranty units.

The SS-776-LR is a combination smoke and carbon monoxide detector that provides dual protection for your home. Its primary features include photoelectric smoke sensing technology, which is particularly effective in detecting slow smoldering fires, and an electrochemical carbon monoxide sensor for accurate CO detection. The unit’s dual ionization chamber design enhances smoke sensitivity, reducing the chances of false alarms while promoting quicker reaction times in case of real danger. Furthermore, the SS-776-LR is equipped with voice alerts that provide clear, intelligible warnings about the specific type of hazard present, whether it be smoke or carbon monoxide.

On the other hand, the SS-775-LR is a dedicated smoke detector that also utilizes photoelectric technology for effective smoke detection. It offers an advanced design, ensuring minimal nuisance alarms while maintaining high sensitivity to actual fire threats. The SS-775-LR features a sleek and modern appearance that allows it to blend seamlessly into any décor. One of its standout characteristics is the Smart Hush feature, which allows users to temporarily silence non-threatening alarms for up to 10 minutes, a valuable function during cooking or similar activities that may trigger false alarms.

Both models boast a long-lasting battery life, ensuring dependable performance over time without the hassle of frequent battery replacement. They also feature visual indicators that alert users when the battery is running low, promoting proactive maintenance. Another essential characteristic shared by these detectors is their easy-to-install design, making them suitable for both renters and homeowners alike.

In addition to their impressive functional specifications, both SS-776-LR and SS-775-LR adhere to the highest safety standards and are rigorously tested for performance and reliability. Their compact sizes allow for flexibility in placement, ensuring that safety can be achieved in various locations throughout your home.

In summary, the Universal Security Instruments SS-776-LR and SS-775-LR provide comprehensive safety solutions, combining cutting-edge technology with practicality. With their user-friendly features, elegant design, and efficient detection capabilities, they represent a wise investment for anyone looking to enhance their home’s security against fire and carbon monoxide hazards.
