Thank you for purchasing a quality Clipsal Lifesaver
®
755 Series
Smoke Alarm. The 755 Series are mains powered smoke alarms,
with a battery backup that will operate in the event of a mains
power failure. The alarm will sound when smoke produced at the
start of a fire enters the unit’s detection chamber. These units
are not designed to detect heat or flame. A five-year warranty
(excluding batteries) is included.
Please read the following instructions carefully to ensure correct
installation and maintenance.
Installation of the Clipsal Lifesaver
®
755 Series Smoke Alarm
must be carried out by a licensed electrician or similarly qualified
person to SAA Wiring Rules (AS3000) and relevant Building
Codes.
All ionisation Smoke Alarms use an extremely small amount of a
radioactive element in their ionisation chambers. Accordingly,
this product contains 37 kBq of Americium 241, a radioactive
material, and is manufactured in compliance with U.S. NRC
safety criteria in 10CFR 32.27. The purchaser is exempt from
any regulatory requirements (U.S. License No. 12-15537-02E).
Do not attempt to remove or tamper with this radioactive
source. Never try to repair or dispose of the unit yourself. Return
it to the supplier for repairs or safe disposal. It is illegal to send
products containing radioactivity through Australia Post. Check
for similar conditions with any other forwarding agency before
sending this product to the supplier.
SMOKE ALARMS HAVE LIMITATIONS
The Clipsal Lifesaver
®
Series Smoke Alarm is not fool-proof and
is not warranted to protect lives or property from fire. Smoke
Alarms are not a substitute for insurance. In addition, it is possi-
ble for the Smoke Alarm to fail at any time.
FOR THIS REASON YOU MUST TEST THE SMOKE ALARM
WEEKLY AND REPLACE EVERY TEN YEARS.
