8.2 Conduct in the event of fire
•
Do not panic, always remain calm.
•
Leave the building immediately. Touch the doors before opening them to
see if they are hot. If the door is hot, it can be assumed that there is a fire
behind it. If possible, try to select a different exit in this case.
•
If necessary, crawl along the floor, as the fumes are not as concentrated
there. Do not waste time looking for valuables and choose a direct way out.
•
Call the fire brigade as soon as you are safe.
•
Never go back into the burning building.
Caution! These rules are guidelines. In order to learn what to do exactly in the
event of fire or what the proper fire safety measures are, it is best to consult a
professional.
9. Maintenance
To keep your detector in good working condition, you must test the detector once
a week, as described in the section "7.4 Testing the smoke detector".
Replace the smoke detector after about 10 years or when you hear the "beep" sig-
nal once for 48 seconds indicating low battery and the LED flashes simultaneously.
A beep heard at half of the LED flashing time, indicates that the smoke detector
is defective.
Vacuum the dust from the sensing chamber of the detector at least once a year.
You can do this when you open the detector to change the battery. Remove the
battery before cleaning. Use a soft brush attachment on your vacuum cleaner to
clean the detector. Carefully remove any dust on the detector components, espe-
cially on the openings of the sensing chamber. Replace the battery after cleaning.
Test the detector to ensure that the battery has been inserted correctly. Ensure
that the test button is not blocked.
