maintained at least once a month. To do this, proceed as follows:
• Wipe the housing with a slightly damp cloth if necessary.
• Shortly press the operating button to perform a function test.
• If the alarm sound is triggered 3 times, the LED ashes red and the
escape light ashes at the same time, the smoke alarm is working
correctly.
• If no alarm sound is triggered or no visual signal can be detected, the
device is defective and has to be replaced.
