FALSE ALARM CONTROL Model ADC features a False Alarm Control that, when activated, quiets unwanted alarms for up to 15 minutes. To use the False Alarm Control: Press and release the test button during an unwanted alarm. The alarm should stop within ten seconds. This means the smoke alarm is in False Alarm Control. 5 If the smoke alarm does not go into False Alarm Control and continues to sound its loud alarm horn or if it initially goes into False Alarm Control then resounds the alarm, the smoke is too heavy and could be a possibly dangerous situation— take emergency action. TESTING THE SMOKE ALARM ! WARNING • Test each smoke alarm to be sure it is installed correctly and operating properly. • Test all smoke alarms in an interconnected system after installation. • The Push-to-Test button accurately tests all functions. DO NOT use an open flame to test this smoke alarm. You may ignite and damage the smoke alarm or your home. • Test smoke alarms weekly and upon returning from vacation or when no one has been in the household for several days. • Stand at arm’s length from the smoke alarm when testing.
