Appendix 1 Warning
Limitations of Smoke Detectors
The smoke detector is designed for triggering and initiating emergency
fire equipment, but it only functions when matching with other
equipment. Installation of this smoke detector must conform to electrical
codes and standards in your country.
The smoke detector cannot work without power.
It cannot work if power
is cut off for any reason.
The smoke detector may not sense fire that starts where smoke cannot
reach it, such as in chimneys, in walls, on roofs, or on the other side of
closed doors.
The detector also may not sense a fire on another level of a building.
Therefore, detectors should be placed on every level of a building.
All types of smoke detector have limitations. Because fires develop in
different ways and are often unpredictable in their growth, it is
impossible to predict which type of detector will provide the earliest
warning. No types of smoke detector can sense every kind of fire every
time. Generally speaking, detectors may not warn you about fires
caused by insufficient safety measures, violent explosions, leaking gas,
improper storage of flammable materials like diluents and other safety
