6 POSITIONING
It is advisable to install several smoke detectors in your home. At least one smoke detector should be installed
on each floor. This ensures that an effective warning is possible when a fire starts. One smoke detector must
be installed in the area outside the bedroom which is used as the exit (corridor and/or staircase).
Also ensure that you install the smoke detector at a location where it can be easily heard, even through
the closed door of the bedroom! (Otherwise you will not wake up during a fire alarm!).
Recommended best and acceptable locations to mount smoke detectors (figure A):
The smoke detector should be installed on the ceiling in the centre of the room. Smoke rises
and gathers in this area (figure B) and placing the smoke alarm here guarantees the earliest
possible alarm warning. For sloping roofs, the smoke alarm should be installed about 1 meter
from the highest point, as displayed in figure C.
Smoke detectors can be installed in all rooms, but not in the bathroom or directly above the
cooking area in the kitchen.
Ensure that the smoke detector is not installed directly on or near large metal objects as they
can affect the radio range.
Before installing the SD90 smoke detector on your ceiling or the wall, ensure that the SD90 is
within range of your Marmitek security system. You can test this by pushing the test button of
the SD90. The Marmitek security system should now be triggered and will dial the preprogrammed
telephone numbers.
In the case of range problems, choose a different location for your SD90 smoke detector.
Moving the SD90 just a few centimetres can make a big difference in range.
To avoid false alarms, do not install the SD90 smoke detector in your kitchen, garage, in dusty
