1. Introduction
Thank you for purchasing Resideo R200S-1 smoke alarm. This product is suitable for indoor installation in
domestic premises, including static holiday homes and caravans.
This manual contains important safety information about the installation and operation of the alarm.
Please read the manual carefully and keep it in a safe place for future reference.
2. Where to install the device? (see page 2)
Refer to page 2 for guidance. Please ensure that you also follow country-specific regulations and
guidelines, such as: British BS5839-6 or German DIN14676. If in doubt, please check, for example by
contacting your local Fire Service.
3. Where not to install the device
• In an environment with a risk of draught (e.g. close to air conditioning, fans, ventilation outlets)
• In areas where steam or fumes are emitted, e.g. kitchens - use R200H (alarm with heat sensor) instead
NOTE: To avoid sensor contamination, the smoke alarm should be removed from the mounting for the
duration of any building work involving dust or debris. If this is not possible, the alarm vents must be fully
covered with a brightly coloured plastic bag or tape. When covered, the alarm will not detect fires or
smoke, so remove the covering when the work is completed each day and replace it the following day if
necessary.
4. Installation (see pages 3-4)
Refer to pages 3 and 4 for guidance.
WARNING: The alarm contains a permanently sealed, non-replaceable battery, and does not contain
serviceable parts inside. Any attempt to open or repair it creates a risk of electric shock or malfunction.
5. Activation (see page 4)
Before commissioning the smoke alarm, it is important to activate and test it for correct operation:
• If you need to enable the tamper proof locking feature, break off or cut off the small cylinder ①.
