minimum solid or stranded wire with a rating
of 240V. When interconnecting, the maximum wire length
between any two Smoke Alarms is 450m for 1.5mm

(20 OHMS loop resistance).
• This Smoke Alarm may be interconnected with as many
as 39 Clipsal Lifesaver
®
755 Series Smoke Alarms.
Do not connect to any other type or model Smoke Alarm.
• Connect Smoke Alarms to a same phase.
Connecting in any other way to that shown in this instruction
may result in damage to the alarm, failure to operate or an elec-
trical shock hazard. It will also void the warranty.
FITTING TAMPER PIN
A tamper resistant feature on the Smoke Alarm may be used to
prevent unauthorised removal of the Smoke Alarm from the
mounting plate.
• From the back of the Smoke Alarm remove the mounting
plate. Twist out and remove one of the pins moulded into
the plate. (Both pins are exactly the same.)
• Position Smoke Alarm to mounting plate and turn
clockwise to lock into place. To engage tamper resist
feature, insert pin into notch on edge of Smoke Alarm.
BATTERY INSTALLATION AND REPLACEMENT
The Clipsal Lifesaver
®
755 Series Smoke Alarm uses one 9V d.c.
battery which automatically provides backup power for the alarm
in the event of the mains power failing. A fresh battery will oper-
ate the alarm for approximately one to three months with a.c.
power off. This Smoke Alarm has a low/missing battery indicator
which will beep at intervals of approximately 60 seconds. It is
vital for your safety that you renew the battery when this occurs.
An inactive alarm will not save lives. Replace the battery with a
new one at least every year (755) to ensure correct operation.
NOTE: The battery used in the 755RL is fixed and cannot be
replaced during the service life of the product of 10 years.
1. To replace the battery, turn off power to smoke alarm at the
switchboard.
