present, check to see if one of the reasons listed in “Locations to avoid” may
have caused the alarm.
SMART HUSH TM CONTROL: The SMART HUSH TM control that is extremely
useful in a kitchen area or other area prone to nuisance alarms. The SMART
HUSH
TM feature has the capability of temporarily desensitizing the alarm circuit
for approximately 10 minutes.
This feature is to be used only when a known alarm condition, such as smoke
from cooking, activates the alarm. The smoke alarm is desensitized by pushing
the Test/Hush button on the smoke alarm cover. If the smoke is not too dense,
the alarm will silence immediately and the red LED blinks every 10 seconds. This
indicates that the alarm is in a temporarily desensitized condition.
The smoke alarm will automatically reset after approximately 10 minutes and
sound the alarm if particles of combustion are still present.
The SMART HUSH TM feature can be used repeatedly until the air has been
cleared of the condition causing the alarm. Pushing the Test/Hush button on the
alarm will end the temporarily desensitized period.
If the smoke is not too dense, after ten minutes the alarm will return to normal
operation.
NOTE: Dense smoke will override the SMART HUSH TM feature and
sound a continuous alarm.
CAUTION: Before using the alarm SMART HUSH
TM feature, identify
the source of the smoke and be certain safe conditions exist.
