2.5 General safety information
The basic safety information describe all
measures to ensure safety thematically and
apply at any time.
General information
Smoke alarm devices provide early warning
of smoke or re, so that the residents of the
house and the apartment are able to react
on time, in particular, to leave the premises
immediately and to alert the re brigade.
Smoke alarm devices do not prevent res,
nor do they ght res automatically. Smoke
alarms do not directly alert the re brigade
or other emergency service. Smoke alarm
devices are not used to prevent re damage
and they cannot in fact prevent it, especially
when no one is present in case of re. The
smoke alarm devices are subject to strict
quality controls during the manufacture.
In addition, a functional test is performed
before delivery. Nevertheless, unexpected
malfunctions may occur.
What to do if there is a re?
(1) Keep calm.
(2) Warn all co-residents.
(3) Help children, disabled, elderly and
sick people.
(4) Close all windows and doors behind you.
(5) Leave the house immediately.
(6) Do not use lifts.
(7) Alert the re brigade.
Battery replacement
A battery change is not necessary and is
technically impossible, as the device must
not be opened.
