page 1 (SD738-EI00 04/2004) SINGLE-STATION PHOTOELECTRIC SMOKE DETECTOR SD-738/w USER’S MANUAL TABLE OF CONTENTS INTRODUCTION ................................................................... 1 LOCATIONS TO INSTALL YOUR SMOKE DETECTOR ..... 1 LOCATIONS NOT TO INSTALL YOUR SMOKE DETECTORS ........................................................................ 2 INSTALLING YOUR SMOKE DETECTOR ........................... 2 TESTING YOUR SMOKE DETECTOR ................................ 3 TAKING CARE OF YOUR SMOKE DETECTOR................. 3 TIPS TO ENHANCE YOUR PROTECTION FROM FIRES .. 3 MORE TIPS TO FACE A FIRE IN YOUR HOME ................. 3 SPECIFICATIONS ................................................................ 4 SMOKE DETECTOR WITH OPTIONAL WIRELESS TRANSMITTER INFORMATION .......................................... 4 FIVE YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY....................................... 4 INTRODUCTION Everday’s single station photoelectric smoke detector is designed to sense smoke that comes into the detector chamber. It does not sense gas, heat, or flame. This smoke detector is designed to give early warning of developing fires by giving off the alarm sounds from its built-in alarm horn. It can provide precious time for you and your family to escape before a fire spreads. However, the smoke detector makes such pre-warning of fire accident possible, only if the detector is located, installed, and maintained properly as described in this User's Manual. WARNING: This smoke detector is designed for use in a single residential unit only, which means that it should be used inside a single-family home or apartment. It is not meant to be used in lobbies, hallways, basements, or another apartment in multi-family buildings, unless there are already working detectors in each family unit. Smoke detectors, placed in common areas outside of the individual living unit, such as on porches or in hallways, may not provide early warning to residents. In multi-family buildings, each family living unit should set up its own detectors. WARNING: This detector is not meant to be used in non-residential buildings. Warehouses, industrial or commercial buildings, and special purpose non-residential buildings require special fire detection and alarm systems. This detector alone is not a suitable substitute for complete fire detection systems for places where many people live or work, such as hotels or motels. The same is true of dormitories, hospitals, nursing homes or group homes of any kind, even if they were once single-family homes. Please refer NFPA 101, the Life Safety Code, NFPA71, 72A, 72B, 72C, 72D, and 72E for smoke detector requirements for fire protection in buildings not defined as “households”. WARNING: This detector will not alert people who are hard of hearing. It is strongly recommended that the special-purpose smoke detectors, using lights or vibrating devices, should be installed to alert occupants who are hard of hearing. LOCATIONS TO INSTALL YOUR SMOKE DETECTOR Smoke detectors should be installed in accordance with the NFPA Standard 74 (National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02169). For complete coverage in residential units, smoke detectors should be installed in all rooms, halls, storage areas, basements, and attics in each family living unit. Minimum coverage is one detector on each floor and one in each sleeping area. Here, we have good tips for you: • Install a smoke detector in the hallway outside every separate bedroom area, as shown in Figure 1. Two detectors are required in homes with two bedroom areas, as shown in Figure 2. • Install a smoke detector on every floor of a multi-floor home or apartment, as shown in Figure 3. • Install a minimum of two detectors in any household. • Install a smoke detector inside every bedroom. • Install smoke detectors at both ends of a bedroom hallway if the hallway is more than 40 feet (12 meters) long. • Install a smoke detector inside every room where one sleeps with the door partly or completely closed, since smoke could be blocked by the closed door and a hallway alarm may not wake up the sleeper if the door is closed. Figure 1: LOCATIONS FOR PLACING SMOKE DETECTORS FOR SINGLE RESIDENCE WITH ONLY ONE SLEEPING AREA Figure 2: LOCATIONS FOR PLACING SMOKE DETECTORS FOR SINGLE-FLOOR RESIDENCE WITH MORE THAN ONE SLEEPING AREA Figure 3: LOCATION FOR PLACING SMOKE DETECTORS FOR A MULTI-FLOOR RESIDENCE • Install basement detectors at the bottom of the basement stairwell. • Install second-floor detectors at the top of the first-to-second floor stairwell. • Be sure no door or other obstruction blocks the path of smoke to the detector. • Install additional detectors in your living room, dining room, family room, attic, utility and storage rooms. • Install smoke detectors as close to the center of the ceiling as possible. If this is not practical, put the detector on the ceiling, no closer than 4 inches (10 cm) from any wall or corner, as shown in Figure 4. • If ceiling mounting is not possible and wall mounting is permitted by your local and state codes, put wall-mounted detectors between 4 and 6 inches (10 ~ 15 cm) from the ceiling, also see Figure 4. Figure 4: RECOMMEN DED BEST AND ACCEPTABL E LOCATIONS TO MOUNT SMOKE DETECTORS • If some of your rooms have sloped, peaked, or gabled ceilings, try to mount detectors 3 feet (0.9 meter) measured horizontally from the highest point of the ceiling as shown in Figure 5. page 2 (SD738-EI00 04/2004) Figure 5: RECOMMENDED LOCATION TO MOUNT SMOKE DETECTORS IN ROOMS WITH SLOPED, GABLED, OR PEAKED CEILING CAUTION (As required by the California State Fire Marshall) “Early warning fire detection is best achieved by the installation of fire detection equipment in all rooms and areas of the household as follows: (1) A smoke detector installed in each separate sleeping area (in the vicinity, but outside of the bedrooms), and (2) Heat or smoke detectors in the living rooms, dining rooms, bedr…
