If there are frequent nuisance/false alarms it may be neces- sary to re-locate the device away from the source of the fumes.

If you installed the smoke alarms as received and did not pro- gram them, you may be receiving an alarm signal from a neighbouring system. This can be easy rectified by house coding your alarms (see section 6.3).

Pressing the test & hush button on the smoke alarm sensing fire (i.e. with the red light flashing rapidly) will silence the alarm for 10 minutes. (Pressing the hush button on the option- al Ei 410 Remote Control acts in the same way).

5.INSTALLING YOUR SMOKE ALARMS

1.Select a location complying with the above advice.

2.Remove the mounting plate from the Smoke Alarm by releasing the tamperproof catch with a small screwdriver as shown in figure 1a and sliding the alarm from the mounting plate.

3.Place the base on the ceiling/wall exactly where you want to mount the unit. With a pencil, mark the location of the two screw holes.

4.Taking care to avoid any electrical wiring in the ceiling, drill holes through the centres of the marked locations. Push the plastic screw anchors provided into the drilled holes. Screw in firmly.

5.Connect the battery to the battery snaps as shown in figure 1b (models Ei405 & Ei405C only).

6.Carefully line up the unit on the base and slide on. (This connects the batteries in the Ei 405C, TY, TYC units.

Install all the other alarms similarly.

6.LOOKING AFTER YOUR SMOKE ALARMS

6.1Manually Testing your Smoke Alarm

It is recommended that you test your Smoke Alarm at least weekly to be sure the unit is working. It will also help you and your family to become familiar with the sound of the Alarm.

When you press the test button it simulates the effect of smoke during a real fire. So, there is no need to test the Alarm with smoke.

Press and hold the Test Button until the alarm sounds (Figure 7). The

alarm will stop sounding

shortly

after the button is released.

Ei 405C, Ei 405TYC, Ei 405TY specifications

Ei Electronics has established itself as a leading brand in the field of smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors. Among its impressive lineup, the Ei 405TY, Ei 405TYC, and Ei 405C models stand out for their innovative design and advanced technologies, ensuring safety in residential and commercial environments.

The Ei 405TY model is a premium smoke alarm that utilizes a state-of-the-art optical sensing technology. This technology enhances the alarm's ability to detect slow-burning fires, such as those caused by smoldering materials. One of the primary features of the Ei 405TY is its high-performance photoelectric chamber, which minimizes false alarms while maximizing fire detection reliability. It is equipped with an intelligent feature that allows for a resettable alarm, providing peace of mind in everyday situations. The alarm also produces a clear, loud alert, ensuring that occupants are promptly notified in case of danger.

The Ei 405TYC model builds upon the features of the Ei 405TY but adds a significant layer of versatility with its built-in carbon monoxide detection capability. This dual-functionality allows for comprehensive protection against both smoke and carbon monoxide, a colorless and odorless gas that poses serious health risks. The Ei 405TYC incorporates advanced microcontroller technology, which ensures accurate detection and notifications for varying levels of CO concentration. Additionally, it features a visual indicator that provides information about the alarm's operational status, enhancing its user-friendliness.

The Ei 405C model is designed for those seeking a reliable and straightforward smoke detection solution. It employs the same optical sensing technology found in the Ei 405TY but without the carbon monoxide detection feature. This model excels in smaller spaces, where it serves effectively as a dedicated smoke alarm. Its easy installation and maintenance are supported by a user-friendly design, making it an ideal choice for homeowners or property managers looking for a cost-effective safety solution.

All three models are designed with long-lasting battery life, ensuring they remain functional even during power outages. Additionally, they feature a tamper-proof design to prevent accidental removal. The Ei Electronics alarms are compliant with international safety standards, emphasizing the brand's commitment to quality and reliability in personal safety. Overall, the Ei 405TY, Ei 405TYC, and Ei 405C models represent a blend of advanced technology and practical features, providing essential fire and carbon monoxide detection for peace of mind in any environment.
