1. READ THIS FIRST

A Smoke Alarm is an early warning device. Used correctly it can give you and your family valuable extra time to escape. When the alarm sounds, immediately evacuate the premises before beginning any investigation.

Figure 1 : Attaching battery to the battery snap

1.Install in the centre of the ceiling (if possible) using the screws supplied (see section 5.0)

2.Connect battery: Connect battery snaps firmly (see figure 1a). Press the test button and horn should sound.

3.When the battery is first connected the Alarm may sound for 2-3 seconds and/or the red light may flash quickly for 10 seconds - this is normal.

4.The wireless interconnect will operate as received once the batteries are connected. We strongly recommend house coding your alarms to prevent interference from neighbouring systems (see section 6)

5.Test weekly.

6.Proper protection usually requires more than one Smoke Alarm.

7.If the Alarm beeps without the red light flashing at the same time then clean the unit, as this is the automatic test feature indicating the chamber is degraded (Ei3105RF only).

8.A Smoke Alarm does not prevent fires.

9.Plan your escape route.

Ei 3100RF specifications

The Ei Electronics Ei 3100RF is an advanced smoke alarm designed to enhance safety and peace of mind in residential settings. This model stands out due to its integration of cutting-edge technologies and user-friendly features that cater to modern needs.

One of the key features of the Ei 3100RF is its unique radio frequency (RF) interlinking capability. This allows multiple alarms to communicate with each other wirelessly, ensuring that if one alarm detects smoke, all interconnected alarms will sound an alert. This interlinking technology is invaluable in larger homes where the sound from a single alarm may not reach all areas effectively, thereby enhancing overall safety.

The Ei 3100RF utilizes an advanced optical smoke sensing technology. This means it can detect smoldering fires that may not immediately produce flames but can generate significant amounts of smoke. This capability is particularly crucial in residential environments, where early detection can save lives and property. The alarm boasts a high-performance sensing chamber that minimizes false alarms, a common concern with traditional smoke detectors.

Another notable characteristic of the Ei 3100RF is its built-in 10-year lithium battery. This eliminates the hassle of changing batteries regularly and ensures that the unit remains operational for an extended period. The battery's longevity is a significant advantage, as it provides uninterrupted monitoring and alarm functionality over the years.

Ease of installation is yet another feature of the Ei 3100RF. The unit includes a simple mounting process that can be completed in a matter of minutes, making it accessible even for individuals without extensive DIY experience.

Furthermore, the Ei 3100RF incorporates a test button, allowing users to easily verify that the alarm is functioning correctly. Regular testing is essential for maintaining safety standards, and this feature encourages proactive behavior among homeowners.

In addition to its practical features, the Ei 3100RF is designed with a sleek, modern aesthetic, making it suitable for a variety of interior styles without being an eyesore. Safety doesn't have to compromise design, and this product exemplifies that philosophy.

In conclusion, the Ei Electronics Ei 3100RF is an excellent choice for those seeking a reliable, advanced smoke alarm. With its RF interlinking technology, optical detection capabilities, long-life battery, easy installation, and user-friendly features, the Ei 3100RF addresses both functional and aesthetic needs in smoke detection.
