1. CAPABILITIES AND LIMITATIONS OF SMOKE ALARMS
American Sensors smoke alarms are designed to provide early
warning of fire and smoke at reasonable cost. Early warning can
mean the difference between a safe escape and no escape at all.
While smoke alarms can provide invaluable protection for you and
your family, they do have limitations.
€ Smoke alarms cannot work without power . Battery operated
alarms will not work without proper batteries, with dead
batteries or if batteries are not properly installed. AC powered
alarms will not work if their AC power supply is cut off by an
electrical fire, an open fuse, a circuit breaker or any other reason.
If you are concerned about the reliability of either batteries or
your AC power supply for any of the above reasons, you should
install in your home both AC and battery powered smoke alarms
for added security. This American Sensors Smoke Alarm model
SA379 is AC powered with battery back-up and offers superior
protection from the dangers of smoke and fire.
€ Smoke alarms are incapable of sounding the alarm until
smoke reaches the sensing chamber. Anything preventing
smoke from reaching the alarm may delay or prevent an alarm.
A smoke alarm cannot detect fire in the walls, chimney or roof
unless and until a significant amount of smoke reaches the
alarm. A closed door may prevent smoke from reaching an alarm
on the other side of the door. A smoke alarm may not sense a
fire on another floor of a home. For example, a basement smoke
alarm may not detect a fire which started on the first or second
floor.
€ Smoke alarms may not be heard. The loudness of the horn in
your alarm meets current standards. However, the sound may be
blocked by distance, closed doors, or ambient noise such as traffic
or a stereo. Smoke alarms may not be heard by persons who are
hard of hearing. For these reasons, a smoke alarm should be
installed in every room or at least on every level of your home.
American Sensors recommends that hardwire AC Powered smoke
alarms be interconnected, so that one alarm will trigger all other
Smoke alarms to sound their alarms.
€ Smoke alarms are not fool-proof. Smoke alarms may not always
sense every kind of fire. They cannot be expected to sense fires
caused by carelessness or by safety hazards. They may not give
early warning of fast growing fires caused by smoking in bed,
violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable
materials, overloaded electrical circuits, natural causes such as
lightning, children playing with matches, or arson.
€ Smoke alarms are not substitutes for property , disability, life or
other insurance of any kind. Home owners and renters should
continue to insure their lives and property. Consult your
insurance agent.
€ Smoke alarms have limited lives. One or more of the many
components could fail at any time. Therefore, test your smoke
alarm weekly. Clean and take care of it as described in this
manual. Repair or replace the smoke alarm when it fails to test
properly. Your smoke alarm should be replaced if it is ten years
old.
€
A photoelectronic smoke alarm senses smoke using an electronic
photo receptor to sense the scattering of light by smoke particles.
2. SAFETY TIPS
Properly installed and maintained smoke alarms are an essential part
of a good home fire safety program. Your fire safety program
should also include a review of fire hazards and the elimination of
dangerous conditions whenever possible. Consider the following
tips:
€ Use smoking materials properly. Never smoke in bed.
€ Keep matches and cigarette lighters away from children.
€ Store flammable materials in proper containers. Never use them
near an open flame or sparks.
€ Keep electrical appliances in good condition. Do not overload
electrical circuits.
€ Keep stoves, fireplaces, chimneys, and barbecue grills grease free.
Make sure they are properly installed and away from any
combustible materials.
€ Keep portable heaters and open flames such as candles away from
combustible material.
€ Do not allow rubbish to accumulate.
€ Keep a supply of extra batteries on hand for your battery powered
smoke alarms.
€ Do not stand too close to the alarm when the unit is in alarm as
the loud horn could damage your hearing.
Never disconnect the battery or the AC power
on any type of smoke alarm to silence a nuisance alarm. Clear the
area of smoke by opening doors or windows or fanning the smoke
away. Use the Alarm-Pause
®
button on model SA379 to silence
nuisance alarms.
Most important, when fire strikes, a prepared and practiced
escape plan can make the difference between life and death.
Develop an escape plan and practice it with the entire family,
including small children.
€ Ensure all family members are familiarized with the alarm signal.
€ Prepare an escape plan. Draw a Floor Plan of Your Home and
determine two exits from each room. There should be a way to get
out of each bedroom without opening the door.
€ Have Fire Drills Often. Practice your Escape and BE PREPARED.
€ Decide on a meeting place at a safe distance from your home.
IN CASE OF FIRE
€ Don•t waste time collecting possessions after a fire starts.
€ Arouse all occupants and leave the building. Your most valuable
possession is your life.
€ Doors can mean escape or death. Never open doors without first
checking for heat. Test them with your hands, if they feel warm,
fire may be walled up behind them - leave closed and find another
escape route.
€ Call the fire department from OUTSIDE the building.
€ If trapped inside, stay close to the floor, cover mouth with cloth,
conserve breath as you crawl to safety.
€ Keep all doors and windows closed except for escape purposes.
€ NEVER re-enter a burning building.
€ Keep your family in a pre-arranged meeting place after your
escape.
Your local fire department may be able to offer you additional ideas
for safety and escape plans in the home.
3a. WHERE TO LOCATE SMOKE ALARMS
As a minimum, smoke alarms should be located between sleeping
areas and potential sources of fire such as a kitchen, heated garage
or basement. In single storey homes with one sleeping area, an
alarm should be installed in the hallway outside the bedrooms (see
Figure 1). In single storey homes with two separate sleeping areas, a
minimum of two alarms are required, one outside each sleeping area
(see Figure 2). In multi-level or split-level homes, as a minimum, an
There are two different types of smoke alarm technology
currently in general use: Ionization and photoelectronic.
While both types of technology are suitable for general
residential use, an ionization alarm will normally respond
faster to fast flaming fires, while a photoelectronic alarm
may be more sensitive to detecting slow smouldering fires.
Because home fires develop in different ways and are often
unpredictable in their growth, it is impossible to predict
which type of alarm will provide the earliest warning. For
best home protection install at least one photoelectronic and
one ionization smoke alarm on each level of your home.
Model SA379 is an ionization type smoke alarm.
Ionization Technology vs.
Photoelectronic Technology
Smoke Alarms
alarm should be installed outside each sleeping area, in the
basement and at every level of the home (see Figure 3).
€ In every room of your home (except the bathroom): Research
indicates that substantial increases in warning time can be
obtained with each properly installed, additional alarm.
€ In bedrooms: In anticipation of fires originating within these
rooms, caused by faulty wiring, lamps, appliances, smoking or
other hazards.
€ In hallways: At a distance no greater than 4 meters (13 feet) from
the farthest wall and no greater than 8 meters (26 feet) from the
next alarm.
€ In the center of a room or hallway: As it is impossible to predict
the source of a fire. If it is necessary to place the alarm on a wall,
always locate the top of the smoke alarm 10-15 cm (4-6 inches)
from the ceiling.
€ As needed: To compensate for closed doors and other obstacles
that may interfere with the path of smoke to an alarm. They may
also prevent occupants on one side of a closed door from hearing
an alarm on the other side of the door.
Model SA379 - Multi-location Hardwire with Battery Back-Up
Model can be located in any area of the home. Its
Alarm-Pause
®
feature makes it ideal in the kitchen area
to silence nuisance alarms. Do not install it directly over
a stove, toaster or dishwasher.
READ •CAP ABILITIES AND LIMITATIONS OF SMOKE
ALARMSŽ in Section 1 of this manual.
Your local fire department or insurance company may be able to
give you further advice on the best smoke alarm locations in your
home. Call them and ask.
These diagrams show smoke alarm locations as recommended as
above in 3a.
3b. WHERE TO LOCATE SMOKE ALARMS IN MOBILE HOMES
AND RECREATIONAL VEHICLES (RVÕs)
Note: Power supply must be 120 Volts AC for model SA379.
In mobile homes and RV•s built after 1978 locate the smoke alarm
as described above.
Older mobile homes and RV•s may have little or no insulation
compared to the ones built post 1978. These uninsulated exteriors
can disrupt airflow around the smoke alarm in hotter or colder
weather. Locate the alarm only on interior walls 10 to 15 cm (4"
to 6") from ceiling 1. if you own an older mobile home or RV, or 2.
if you notice the exterior walls and/or ceiling are noticeably cold or
warm or 3. if you are uncertain about the quality of insulation.
Regardless of the age of the mobile home or RV, locate alarms
throughout to ensure maximum protection. Follow the location
instructions in this manual.
4. NFPA RECOMMENDATIONS
For your information, the National Fire Protection Association•s
Standard 72, Section 2-2.1.1.1, reads as follows:
2-2.1.1.1 Smoke alarms shall be installed outside of each separate
sleeping area in the immediate vicinity of the bedrooms
and on each additional storey of the family living unit,
including basements and excluding crawl spaces and
unfinished attics. In new construction a smoke alarm also
shall be installed in each sleeping room.
5. LOCATIONS TO AVOID
Avoid locations where smoke may not reach the alarm in time to
provide early warning, or where the alarm may not be effective.
DO NOT PLACE SMOKE ALARMS:
€ In turbulent air from fans, doors, windows, etc. The rapid air
movement may prevent combustion particles from entering the
alarm.
€ In dead air spaces such as at the peak of an •AŽ frame ceiling.
•Dead airŽ at the top may prevent smoke from reaching the alarm
in time to provide early warning. In rooms with simple sloped,
peaked or gabled ceilings, install smoke alarms on the ceiling 90
cm (3 feet) from the highest point of the ceiling.
Note: For complex ceiling structures, consult a safety expert for
the number of alarms required and the best locations.
€ In very hot or cold areas where the temperature exceeds 38
0
C
(100
0
F) or falls below 5
0
C (40
0
F).
€ Less than 15 cm (6 inches) from the wall when mounted on the
ceiling.
Nuisance alarms could result when smoke alarms are located where
interference may occur with the sensing chamber. To avoid
nuisance alarms, DO NOT place smoke alarms:
€ In high humidity areas such as bathrooms and attics. Place
smoke alarms at least 3 meters (10 feet) away from bathrooms.
€ In insect-infested areas.
€ In poorly ventilated kitchens or garages.
€ In very dusty and dirty areas.
€ Near fluorescent lights.
Place smoke alarms at least 1.5 meters
(5
feet) from fluorescent lights.
This smoke alarm is suitable for residential use.
It is not to be connected to a commercial or industrial fire alarm
panel.
6. INSTALLATION AND TESTING
Locking Keys - Optional
This model has optional locking keys to better secure either the
alarm and/or the alarm and back-up battery to inhibit unauthorized
removal. See point 16 in this section for more details on this
feature.
A. Installation
Mount to any standard or rectangular junction box with a minimum
depth of 25mm (1 inch). 120V AC, 55mA operation.
WARNING: Wiring should only be installed by a licensed
electrician in accordance with the Canadian Electrical Code, Part I,
and local codes.
WARNING:
All AC-powered interconnected smoke alarms shall be
installed on the same circuit (i.e., the same circuit breaker/fuse). The
electrical circuit must be a 24-hour voltage circuit that cannot be
turned off by a switch or Ground Fault Interrupter. It is important that
the power to each alarm is taken from the same point within the circuit
and the polarities are maintained on each alarm. Following these
instructions will prevent false alarming due to electrical system
imbalances and damage to the units due to incorrect polarities.
It is
highly recommended that smoke alarms be wired on a separate
circuit (one with no other lights or appliances) to ensure maximum
reliability of AC power supply.
For installation of Smoke Alarms in Dwelling Units, it is important
to follow the Canadian Electrical Code (1994) Part 1, Section 32-
110.
1. Electricity must be turned off at service entrance before
beginning installation to prevent electrical shock or equipment
damage.
2. Location must comply with applicable building codes.
3. Install a junction box where you plan to install the alarm. Use
standard 14 gauge wire.
4. Grasp the tab on the battery drawer and slide it straight out.
5. Reposition the battery in its compartment as shown on the
markings in the drawer.
6. Push the drawer straight in until it is flush with the housing.
7. Test as recommended in •OperationŽ section.
8. Connect black and white wires, color to color, from power
connector to AC power leads.
9. For multiple station, use the orange wire for interconnection. If
unit is not to be interconnected, cap unused wire.
10. Loosen or remove screws from junction box.
11. Attach flat side of mounting plate and tighten screws to fit
snugly against junction box and ceiling or wall.
12. Bring power connector through center opening.
13. Slip the paper gasket supplied with the alarm over the power
connection and then onto the mounting plate so that the four
plastic tabs on the mounting plate will hold the gasket in place.
The gasket will prevent downward air currents from entering the
smoke alarm through holes in the back of the alarm. Unless
blocked off, downward air currents prevent smoke from entering
the alarm.
WARNING: IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT YOU INSERT THE
GASKET WHEN INSTALLING YOUR SMOKE ALARM.
14. Plug wire connector into the back of the alarm.
15. Align the plug area on the smoke alarm with the cut out in the
gasket and place the smoke alarm in the mounting plate, turn
clockwise to fasten it to the mounting plate.
16. If auxiliary lock is desired insert either key # 1 or # 2 into the
slot marked •Key SlotŽ in the base of the alarm just below the
battery drawer. Locking key should •clickŽ into position and be
flush with the alarm housing (keys are enclosed with the alarm
in plastic wrapper).
CAUTION: Do not attempt to remove alarm or open battery
drawer without first removing locking key. If key is not first
removed, damage may result (see below).
17. Test alarm operation after installation in accordance with
•Operation: How to T estŽ instructions.
NOTE: Maximum interconnect wiring length is 50 meters (150
feet).

pop out.
To Activate the Alarm-Pause
®
Feature
Simply press the Alarm-Pause
®
button on the cover of the smoke
alarm for a minimum of 5 seconds then release to activate the
Alarm-Pause
®
feature. In this mode, the unit should not respond to
smoke (by sounding an alarm) for a period of approximately 10
minutes, unless the level of smoke concentration becomes very
heavy (approaching 4 per cent per foot obstruction). During the
Alarm-Pause
®
period, the smoke alarm should •beepŽ approximately
once every 45 seconds to alert the household that the smoke alarm
has been silenced.
Variations in Length of Alarm-Pause
®
Period
The Alarm-Pause
®
period will vary in length depending upon the
amount of smoke present. When there is no smoke, the Alarm-
Pause
®
will be activated for the longest period of time
(approximately six to ten minutes) after releasing the Alarm-Pause
®
button.
If the level of smoke density increases, the length of the Alarm-
Pause
®
period will shorten. As the level of smoke density approaches
4 per cent per foot obstruction (a very heavy concentration of
smoke), the smoke alarm will override the Alarm-Pause
®
mode and
sound an alarm. NOTE: If powered only by battery, the level of
battery voltage will also affect the length of the Alarm-Pause
®
period. If the battery voltage is low, the Alarm-Pause
®
will be
activated for approximately 10 minutes. If the battery voltage is
high, the Alarm-Pause
®
will be activated for a shorter period of time
(approximately 4 minutes).

B. Operation: How to Test
Before Installation:
1. Connect battery. Ensure that the battery is correctly installed.
Positive terminal to positive contact and negative terminal to
negative contact, as indicated in the battery drawer. Reversing
the battery in the compartment should not cause any damage to
the smoke alarm. If the drawer is pushed all the way in, a low
battery beep will sound when the AC power is applied after
installation if the battery is improperly installed.
Storage in low humidity, and certain transportation conditions,
may cause electrostatic charges to build up in the alarm system
housing. Although harmless, these charges may increase the
length of time during which the horn sounds upon battery
insertion or test button operation. The condition may be cleared
by gently wiping the outside of the plastic cover with a clean,
damp cloth.
2. Check that the red operating light flashes approximately every
45 seconds.
3. Depress and hold the test button until the alarm sounds. NOTE:
It may be necessary to depress the test button for up to 20
seconds for an alarm to sound. An alarm is indicated by a loud
continuous pulsating sound. An alarm may continue to sound
for up to 10 seconds after the button is released.
After Installation
1. Check to see that the green operating light is on. The operating
light is visible behind the slotted case and confirms that the
smoke alarm is receiving AC power.
2. At least once a week, press the test button until the alarm
sounds, then release.
NOTE: Multiple Station Only:
3. Test each alarm separately in the system.
4. Determine that the initiating alarm triggers other alarms in the
system.
7. BATTERY REPLACEMENT
The Eveready 216, 522, 1222, Duracell MN1604 and the Gold Peak
1604P are the only acceptable back-up batteries for use in this
smoke alarm. The back-up battery will power the smoke alarm for at
least one year under normal use. When the back-up battery reaches
the end of its normal life, a low battery warning (intermittent
beeping) for up to 30 days, will indicate the need for back-up
battery replacement.
NOTE: If the battery drawer is open, the low battery warning beep
is disabled. The battery drawer is designed to resist closing when the
back-up battery is removed, thereby ensuring visual warning.
Use of a non-recommended battery may be
detrimental to the proper functioning of the alarm.
8. MAINTENANCE & TROUBLESHOOTING
VACUUM EVERY SIX MONTHS
Your smoke alarm should be cleaned every six months to help keep
it working efficiently. REMOVE POWER TO ALARM. Gently
vacuum through the vents of the alarm with a soft brush
attachment. Keep vacuum nozzle from touching the unit.
RE-ESTABLISH POWER TO ALARM.
Problems are indicated by these events:
1. The alarm does not sound upon pressing the test button.
2. The green operating light does not remain steadily on when the
unit is AC powered.
3. The red operating light remains steadily on or off (i.e. does not
flash once every 45 seconds, when the unit is not in alarm).
Try the following:
1. Inspect breaker or use in power circuit to alarm.
2. Check that the unit contains recommended battery type.
3. Check the battery is properly connected (Observe polarity).
4. Gently vacuum as recommended above.
5. Replace battery.
6. Call a trained, experienced serviceman to inspect house wiring
and connection to alarms.
If these procedures do not correct the problem, do NOT attempt
repairs. If the smoke alarm is within warranty period and terms,
