Users Manual

OMNSMK1-TI00PRINTED IN CANADA 03/2003 EnglishInstallationThe OMN-SMK1 should be mounted on the ceiling (or wall if necessary) in accordance with the NFPA Standard 74 (National Protection Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02169) outlined on reverse. The OMN-SMK1 is a wireless detector designed to work wi th the OMN-RCV3 wireless receiver and cannot be linked to other smoke detectors. The detector will not warn people who are deaf or hard of hearing. Special-purpose detectors with light or vibrating devices should be installed. For optimal detection, the unit should be m ounted as close to the center of the ceiling as possible. Always test the unit before it has been powered and after installation as outlined in “Testing the Smoke Detector”. After selecting the detector's location, drill or punch out hol es for the screws as shown in Figure 2 on reverse and follow the steps outlined below. Mounting the Detector 1. Use two of the eight keyhole slot s to mark where you will drill the mounting holes and insert the plastic wall plugs. 2. Align the mounting bracket to the wall plugs and partially insert the screws. 3. Once the mounting bracket is positioned, secure it and tighten both screws. 4. Join the detector to the mounting bracket, by aligning the lock tab to the preferred lock slot (Figure 2 on reverse), then turn counter-clockwise to lock detector into place. The mounting bracket comes with two “tamper proof” threads. Remove these threads in order to change the battery or if you wish to mount the detector to an alternative location. Unmounting the Detector Remove the detector from the mounting bracket by gently pulling the detector, then turning clockwise as shown in Figure 2 on reverse. Alternative Locations If a ceiling installation is not possible , the following alternative locations are recommended:• Ceiling mount no closer than 10cm (4 ”) from any wall or corner as shown in Figure 6 on reverse. • Wall mount (permitted by your local and state codes) between 10 and 15cm (4 to 6”) from the ceiling as shown in Figure 6 on reverse. • For sloped or peaked ceiling, try to mount the detector 1m (3.2ft) measured horizontally from the highest point of the ceiling as shown in Figure 6 on reverse. The OMN-SMK1 is designed to give early warning of developing fires by sensing smoke. It will not sense gas, heat and flame sources. Residential Installations The detector is designed for use inside a single residential unit such as a family home or apartment. For complete coverage in residential units, smoke detectors should be install ed in the following locations: • In any hallway outside bedroom areas. Additional det ectors should be installed for every bedroom area as shown in Figure 3 on reverse. • On every floor of a multi-floor home or apartment as shown in Figure 5 on reverse. • At both ends of a bedroom hallway if the hallway is more than 12m (40ft) long. • At the bottom of a basement stairwell.• At the top of the first to second floor stairwell and subsequent stairwells in multi-floored residential units. Detectors should be installed as cl ose to the center of the ceiling as possible. If this is not practi cal refer to Figure 6 on reverse for alternative locations. Non-residential Installations The detector is not intended for non-residential installations. The following locations are not recommended:• Warehouses.• Industrial or commercial buildings.• Places where people may live and work such as motels, hotels, dormitories, nursing homes, group homes even if they were previously used as family homes. • Special non-residential buildings t hat require specific fire/smoke detection systems. • Lobbies or hallways or basement s of multi-family buildings. 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”. Detection Parameters Installation in the following areas may cause false alarms or impede with the detector’s ability to provide su fficient early warning. Avoid the following areas:• Dusty areas such as a garage or attic.• Areas where the temperature may fall below 4ºc (40ºF) or rise above 38ºC (100ºF). • Near fluorescent electrical lights. If this cannot be avoided, ensure a minimum installation distance of at least 1.5m (5ft). • Areas with poor ventilation or obstructions that may prevent smoke from reaching the detector. These can be the top of a peaked (sloped) roof or ceiling (Figure 5 on reve rse) and a partially or completely closed bedroom door. • Near furnaces or hot water heaters.• Humid or damp areas such as a washroom or shower. If this cannot be avoided, ensure a minimum installati on distance of at least 3m (10ft). • Near ventilated areas that may draw smoke away from the detector. • Insect-infested areas.• Areas less than 6m (20ft) away from the kitchen or cooking appliances. Never remove the batteries to stop a false alarm. Allow sufficient ventilation to reach the detector until the false alarm stops. If false alarms persist, clean out the detector. Powering the DetectorInsert the battery in the compartment located under the detector. You can insert an optional screw to secure the compartment door. Align the terminals on the end of the (alkaline) battery to those of the detector (Figure 1 on reverse). When the detector first makes contact with the battery, the LED will flicker and the horn will sound for one second. This means t hat the battery is properly connected. Close the cover and hold down the test bu tton for five seconds. The horn will emit a loud pulsating sound to indica te that the unit is working. LED Smoke Signal IndicationOnce smoke is detected, the OMN-SMK1 will emit three continuous alarms, pause and repeat this alarm pattern until the smoke condition has stopped. In addition, during an alarm, the re d LED will flicker rapidly. Upon detection of an alarm condition (s moke) the OMN-SMK1 will transmit the alarm signal every 30 sec…
