SMOKE ALARM FEATURES
•
This smoke alarm is powered by 120V AC and a 9-volt battery back-up
source. AC/DC smoke alarms offer added protection in the event of a
power failure or a drained battery.
•
Unique power connector prevents interconnection with incompatible
smoke alarms or security systems.
•
This smoke alarm may be interconnected with as many as 11 other Firex
model AD, ADC, PAD or FX1218 smoke alarms, and as many as 6 Firex
model ADH heat alarms for a total of not more than 18 interconnected
devices.
•
Optional tamper-resist feature can serve as a safeguard against tampering.
•
Models AD and ADC have a unique “battery missing” lockout. The smoke
alarm will not attach to the mounting bracket if a battery is not in the bat-
tery pocket.
•
Improperly connected or weak battery signal. The smoke alarm will
sound a short beep about once a minute if the battery is weak or improp-
erly connected.
•
Green and red LED indicator(s) show when the smoke alarm is receiving
AC power, working under normal operation, in alarm, or under false
alarm control.
•
Loud alarm horn—85 decibels at 10 feet—sounds to alert you of
an emergency.
•
This alarm incorporates the internationally recognized horn signal for
evacuation. During alarm mode, the horn produces three short beeps fol-
lowed by a 2 second pause and then repeats. This pattern is somewhat
different than the previous alarm sound, which continually beeped.
•
Test button checks smoke alarm operation. Models ADC and FADC also
feature a False Alarm Control™ which, when activated, quiets unwanted
alarms for up to 15 minutes.
• Model FADC features a latching LED which keeps the initiating alarm Red
LED illuminated until manually reset.
