Thank you for purchasing a Kidde Fyrnetics alarm.
Please read through our guide in full. It should be retained for future reference.
Kidde Fyrnetics recommends for maximum protection that both ionisation and
photo-electric (optical) smoke alarms be installed. Ionisation sensing alarms may
detect invisible fire particles (associated with fast flaming fires) sooner than photo-
electric alarms. Photoelectric sensing alarms may detect visible fire particles (asso-
ciated with slow smoldering fires) sooner than ionisation alarms. Home fires devel-
op in different ways and are often unpredictable. For maximum protection, Kidde
recommends that both Ionisation and Photoelectric alarms be installed.Heat alarms
are useful in areas with condensation/dust/high humidity, such as kitchens and
lofts. Heat alarms MUST ALWAYS be interconnected to smoke alarms.
