Turn on the mains supply at the distribution board only if the unit passes the above test.

5.1 If the unit is beeping

The alarm automatically monitors the battery every 40 seconds to ensure that it is

satisfactory. If it is depleted it will give a short beep every 40 seconds.

(i) Check that the green mains power light is on. If it is off the alarm is not receiving mains

power and is being powered from its internal back-up cells. The beeps indicate that these

cells are depleted. The cells are not replaceable. Check fuses, circuit breakers and wiring to

determine the cause of the interruption to the mains power. If in doubt contact a qualified

electrician. Once mains power is reinstated, the beeps should cease within 2 hours as the

cells charge up. Fully charged, the cells will provide up to 6 months back-up without mains

power.

(ii) If the unit beeps and the amber light flashes at the same time it indicates a problem with

the smoke sensor or the heat sensor - see “GETTING YOUR ALARM SERVICED” section on

page 18.

If all of the above possible causes of beeps have been ruled out, but the beeping has still

persisted for over 2 hours with the green light on, there may be some other problem with the

unit. The alarm must be returned for repair or replacement - see “GETTING YOUR ALARM

SERVICED” section on page 18.

circuit breaker powering the alarm before following the cleaning instructions.
