3. IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Do not paint your alarm. Do not allow paint, water or dust to contaminate your alarm.

Your alarm is a mains 230V AC electrical appliance. Do not open or insert anything into the alarm.

Regularly check that the green mains indicator light on the cover is lit.

Test weekly - press and hold the test button on the alarm for 10 seconds. The alarm will sound loudly and the red light on the cover should flash rapidly. All the other interconnected alarms should sound.

If alarm beeps once every 40 seconds for over 20 minutes, the battery is probably depleted (models Ei141/144/146 only) and must be replaced.

THE BATTERY" section on page 4).

If a nuisance alarm occurs, press the test/hush button to silence the alarm for 10 minutes.

Clean your alarm regularly. This will reduce the risk of false alarms.

Remove or completely cover your alarm when decorating to prevent dust or other contamination damaging the unit.

If your alarm sounds for no reason and will not reset, it can be removed by releasing the clip on the base.

(see "ALARM REMOVAL" section on page 2).
