6. LOOKING AFTER YOUR SMOKE DETECTOR
a.Automatic Self-Test
The smoke chamber automatically tests itself every 40 seconds. If the chamber is degraded it will beep without the LED flashing at the same time. If this happens clean the unit. If the beeping persists and the beep does not coincide with an LED flash, return the unit to service.
b.Manually testing your Smoke Detector
It is recommended that you test your Smoke Detector at least once a week 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 (it may take up to 10 seconds). The alarm will stop sounding shortly after the Button is released. If the alarm fails to sound, follow this checklist.
