Installation Guide

To activate, press the Test/Hush button. While in the End of Life Hush

mode,

the alarm will still detect Smoke.

The End of Life signal can be reset a maximum of 10 times for a total of 30

days. After 10 resets the end of life signal can no longer be silenced and the

alarm must be replaced immediately.

7. NUISANCE ALARMS

This Smoke alarm is designed to minimize nuisance alarms. Cigarette smoke will

not normally cause the unit to alarm, unless the smoke is blown directly into the

alarm. Combustion particles from cooking may set off the alarm if it is located

too close to a cooking appliance. Large quantities of combustible particles are

generated from spills or when broiling. Using the fan on a range hood which

vents to the outside (non-recirculating type) will also help remove these combus-

tible products from the kitchen.

If the alarm does sound the smoke alarm pattern of 3 long beeps, check for fires

first. If a fire is discovered, get out and call the fire department. If no fire is pres-

ent, check to see if one of the reasons listed in “Locations to avoid” may have

caused the alarm.

SMART HUSH

CONTROL: The SMART HUSH

feature has the capability of

temporarily desensitizing the alarm circuit for approximately 10 minutes. This

feature is to be used only when a known alarm condition, such as smoke from

cooking, activates the alarm. The smoke alarm is desensitized by pushing the

Test/Hush button on the smoke alarm cover. If the smoke is not too dense, the

alarm will silence immediately and the red LED blinks every 10 seconds. This

indicates that the alarm is in a temporarily desensitized condition.

Model P3010B will issue a voice prompt stating “Hush Mode Activated.”

Model P3010H will turn off the amber safety light.

The smoke alarm will automatically reset after approximately 10 minutes and

sound the alarm if particles of combustion are still present.

Model P3010B will issue a voice prompt stating “Fire-Fire.”

The SMART HUSH

feature can be used repeatedly until the air has been

cleared of the condition causing the alarm. Pushing the Test/Hush button on the

alarm will end the temporarily desensitized period.

Model P3010B will issue a voice prompt stating “Hush Mode Cancelled” after

the Test/Hush button has been pressed.

If the smoke is not too dense, after ten minutes the alarm will return to normal

operation.
