BUILT-IN FALSE ALARM CONTROL — Warning

Before using the alarm’s false alarm feature, fully

identify the source of the smoke and make certain

that the area is safe. Nuisance sources such as

kitchen cooking areas can cause nuisance or false

alarms. Built into Clipsal Lifesaver

755 Series

Smoke Alarms is a special False Alarm Control

feature that lets you silence false alarms from

nuisance sources.

Features

• The False Alarm Control will temporarily silence the

alarm for approximately 15 minutes.

• After 15 minutes the unit will automatically revert to

the fully alert mode.

• Very dense smoke will override the False Alarm

Control and sound the alarm.

• The False Alarm Control feature can be used repeatedly

to silence the alarm until the air is cleared.

• This feature is to be used only when a known

condition (e.g., smoke from cooking) activates the

alarm.

• To operate, push the FALSE ALARM/TEST button.

The alarm will silence immediately and the red light

will blink approximately every 10 seconds for the next

15 minutes.

• At the end of 15 minutes the Smoke Alarm will beep

twice. This signals the end of the False Alarm Control.

• It will then automatically revert to the fully alert

condition. If smoke particles are still present, the

alarm will sound again.

• If interconnected alarms are installed, the unit that

detects the smoke and sounds the alarm cannot be

inadvertently silenced by the FALSE ALARM/TEST

button of other units. In this case all of the alarms

will continue to sound for as long as smoke is

detected or until the FALSE ALARM/TEST button of the

triggering alarm is pressed.

• The Smoke Alarm produces an audible sound of 85

decibel alarm at 3 metres.

• The initiating alarm LED in an interconnected system will flash

3 times per minute until reset by pressing the FALSE

ALARM/TEST button (Model 755 only).
