3. IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Do not paint your alarm. Do not allow paint, water or dust
to contaminate your alarm.
Your alarm is a mains 230V AC electrical appliance. Do not
open or insert anything into the alarm.
Regularly check that the green mains indicator light on the
cover is on.
If the alarm beeps and the red light flashes at the same
time the battery is depleted – ensure green mains power
light is on.
Test weekly - press and hold the Test/Hush button on the
alarm for 10 seconds. The alarm will sound loudly and the
red light on the cover should flash rapidly. All the other
interconnected alarms should sound.

If a nuisance alarm occurs, press the Test/Hush button to
silence the alarm for 10 minutes.
Clean your alarm regularly. This will reduce the risk of
false alarms.
Remove or completely cover your alarm when decorating
to prevent dust or other contamination damaging the unit.
If your alarm sounds for no reason and will not reset, it can
be removed by releasing the clip on the base.
(see "ALARM REMOVAL" section on page 4).

4. MULTI-SENSOR FIRE ALARM FEATURES
The state of the art EI2110 Multi-Sensor Fire Alarm, with its Heat enhanced Optical
Smoke Sensor, has a significantly improved performance as described below.
1. Faster Response to a wider range of fires.
The combination of the ultra fast temperature sensing thermistor and the high
performance optical sensor within the unit, enhances the fire sensing performance
such that the unit detects all the 7 different Test Fires (TF) specified in the standard
BS ISO 7240-15: 2004. These Test Fires are designed to produce different levels of
smoke/heat and as such are a good test of the units performance to the different fires
that could possibly occur in the home.
2. Reduced Nuisance Alarms.
The unit can tolerate up to 50% higher levels of cooking fumes and steam when
compared with normal optical sensor alarms.
3. Increased Longevity and Ruggedness.
The unit can tolerate up to 100% more dust and contamination build-up when
compared with normal optical sensor alarms. This is due to the unique automatic
DUST* compensation built into the unit which monitors the contamination in the smoke
sensing chamber and adjusts the alarm trigger point accordingly.
*DUST – Dust Ups Sensor Threshold.
Additionally, the optical sensor chamber features a fine mesh insect screen that is
bonded to the plastic of the chamber. This significantly improves immunity to insect
contamination.
B16351-R0-Ei2100 SERIES-USE.qxd 18/9/08 3:47 PM Page 7
4. Replace Alarm Indicator.
If the optical sensor chamber becomes very heavily contaminated, the amber fault
light will flash once every 40 seconds to inform the user. Action can then be taken to
replace the unit, long before the contamination causes nuisance alarms.
5. Alarm Memory.
After a the unit has gone into alarm, the red alarm light will flash twice (1 second apart)
every 40 seconds to indicate that the unit has alarmed in the previous 24 hours.
Additionally, pressing the test button on this unit will cause it to emit short, rapid beeps
instead of the normal alarm sound. Both these features allow easy identification, for
example, of the source of nuisance alarms during the night.
6. Single Person Interconnect Test
Pressing and holding the test button on the unit causes the alarm to sound. On
releasing the test button, the alarm will immediately cease but all interconnected
alarms will continue to sound for 3 seconds. This allows easy audible check of alarm
interconnection.
5. TESTING & MAINTAINING YOUR ALARM
INSPECTION & TESTING PROCEDURE
Check all your alarms weekly, and also after initial installation or after re-occupation (e.g.
following a holiday):
(i) Check that the green mains indicator light is on. (If it is off check circuit breakers, fuses
and wiring etc.) Check the red light on the cover flashes every 40 seconds.
8
B16351-R0-Ei2100 SERIES-USE.qxd 18/9/08 3:47 PM Page 8
(ii) Press the test button for up to 10 seconds and ensure that the alarm sounds. This tests
the sensors, electronics and sounder are working. A red light on the cover will flash while
the alarm is sounding. The alarm will stop when the button is released. Pressing the test
button simulates the effect of smoke and heat during a real fire and is the best way to ensure
the alarm is operating correctly.
WARNING: DO NOT TEST WITH FLAME
This can set fire to the alarm and damage the house
We do not recommend testing with smoke or heat as the results can be misleading unless
special apparatus is used.
(iii) Check for any sign of contamination such as cobwebs or dust and clean the alarm as
described in the “CLEANING YOUR ALARM” section on page 10, if necessary.
(iv) Interconnected alarms only - Test the first unit by pressing the test button for 10
seconds. All the units should alarm within 10 seconds of the first horn sounding. After
releasing the test button, the local horn will stop sounding immediately and the
interconnected units will be heard sounding in the distance for a further 3 seconds. The red
light on the first unit only will flash about twice a second. Check all the other units similarly
in turn.
(v) Check the functioning of the mains battery back-up directly after installation and then
at least yearly as follows:
- Turn off the mains power at the distribution board and check that the green indicator light
is extinguished.
- Press the Test/Hush button for up to 10 seconds and ensure the horn sounds loudly.
- Monitor the alarm over a 3 minute period for any beeps.
9
B16351-R0-Ei2100 SERIES-USE.qxd 18/9/08 3:47 PM Page 9
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.
6. CLEANING YOUR ALARM
WARNING: Electrical shock hazard. Disconnect the AC mains power at the fuse box or
circuit breaker powering the alarm before following the cleaning instructions.
Clean your alarm regularly (at least once every 4 weeks). In dusty areas it may be
