Smoke detector

Section 4 of the manual:

Smoke detector alarm types
Section 5 of the manual:
“The detector can be fully tested using the LED test button (fig. 8.1): battery test, electronic smoke chamber test and pulsating electronics test. Perform a test at least once a year and every time you replace the batteries.

Press the test button (for up to 20 seconds) until a loud, pulsating alarm signal (c. 85 dB) can be heard. The test alarm automatically resets itself a few seconds after the test button has been released.”
Section 5 of the manual:
“The device automatically performs a test approx. every 45 seconds which checks the pulsating electronics, voltage and battery internal resistance. The red LED flashes briefly (fig. 8.1) to indicate that this test is being performed.”
Section 5 of the manual:
“If the 9 V battery supply falls beneath a certain value, the detector will emit an audible signal (approx. every 45 seconds), approx. 30 days before the battery needs to be replaced (see 3. Installation/Assembly/Connection).”
Section 5 of the manual:
“If the device is faulty, the red LED will flash approx. every 45 seconds alternately with the audible signal. This indicates that the detector needs to be replaced.”
Section 5 of the manual:
“When an alarm is triggered, the detector automatically resets itself if there are no longer any particles in the smoke chamber.

The detector can also be switched off manually by removing the battery.”
