Your home is protected with a KIDDE Fyrnetics alarm/s

Please read through our guide in full. It should be retained for future reference. Cut out page 6 and pin up near your Consumer Unit/Fuse Box.

Kidde Fyrnetics recommends for maximum protection that both ionisation and opti- cal (photo-electric) smoke alarms be installed. Ionisation technology is faster at detecting fast flaming fires that give off little smoke. Optical (photo-electric) technology is faster at responding to slow, smouldering smoky fires. Heat alarms are installed in environments where excessive steam, dust etc. make smoke alarms impractical e.g. kitchens/boiler rooms/lofts.

Electrical rating 230V AC, 50Hz 80mA max per alarm (maximum 80mA for originating unit with 24 alarms interconnected).
