Installation
• Drill two holes either 88 or 102 mm apart where you wish to install
the smoke detector. Insert the screws so as to ensure that the device
will be firmly attached to the respective surface. Open Carefully
open the lid of the smoke detector. Mount the smoke detector
on the screws (please make sure that there is a narrow clearance
between the screw heads and the underlying surface). Please use
the enclosed material (2 screws and 2 plugs).
• Clip the battery lead to the 9V alkaline PP3 battery ensuring the
correct polarity and insert the battery in the space provided.
• Insert the CR123A lithium battery into the space provided ensuring
the correct polarity. This battery will engage the VWS Technology
voice warning system.
• Tighten the mounting screws attaching the device it to the
respective surface.
• Carefully close the lid of the device ensuring it is firmly in place.
Check immediately after finishing the installation that the smoke
detector works properly by pressing the test button for at least 2
seconds.
Testing the alarm
A flashing LED on the device signals accurate operation.
Pressing the test button for approximately 2 seconds will activate
the voice warning announcement. If after the announcement the
‘Low Battery’ message is played then the battery is beginning to run
low and should be changed as soon as possible.
If the announcement cannot be heard after pressing the button or
if the LED does not flash, please do check the following points:
• Is the device damaged?
• Is the device clean? (For your security please vacuum the outside
cover regularly to remove dust and dirt.)
• Are the batteries working properly? Are you using the required
battery types? Are the batteries connected properly? Replace the
batteries if necessary.
If the smoke alarm is still not working, do not attempt to repair it but
contact a professional.
False alarms
After every alarm activation ensure the air around the detector is
clear and free from further smoke, fan the air around the smoke
alarm if necessary, until the alarm turns off. After the alarm the
device is immediately ready for operation.
Maintenance
Periodic maintenance contributes to a long service life of the ZSSD9
and ensures a failure-free operation.
• Clean the outside cover with a damp cloth at least every three
months (do not use any detergent!).
• Vacuum the outside cover and vents every three month. Never let
the vacuum cleaner come in contact with the interior parts of the
smoke alarm.
Please note!
The ZSSD9 requires sufficient power to operate.
• Please use the appropriate type of branded batteries, used only 9
volt Alkaline for the smoke detector and CR123A lithium for the VWS
voice warning system.
• Please check the polarity of the battery carefully.
• Please verify that the smoke alarm is working properly immediately
after replacing the batteries.
• In case of the battery warning signal, replace the smoke detector 9
volt battery immediately. Otherwise please change it at least once
a year.
General
Tobacco Smoke Detector will activate the voice warning
announcement when it detects cigarette, cigar or pipe smoke.
Everything preventing the smoke from reaching the alarm obstructs
an early alarm.
A single Tobacco Smoke Detector detector provides only limited
coverage and you should consult your supplier if you require large
areas of detection.
