Good news! ZEN smoke alarm bundle packs arrive to you already interconnected – no need to pair them up as we’ve done it for you. Simply switch your alarms on, perform a test, and you’re good to go!

Switching your alarms ON/OFF

Switch ON: Press down the centre of the alarm (test button) for 5 seconds until the red LED lights up, then release.

Testing your alarms

  1. Press the test button once on the alarm or the remote control. The alarm red LED will flash and will emit an audible tone ‘BEEP BEEP BEEP’.
  2. If interconnected as a group, all other alarms will do the same.
  3. Alarms will silence automatically after 10 seconds.

Silencing your alarms

  1. To silence an alarm after it has been activiated, press the test/silence button on it (or use the remote control).
  2. If interconnected as a group, all alarms will silence except for the one detecting the issue.
  3. Press the test/silence button a second time and ALL alarms will become silenced.
  4. The audible tone stops and the red LED indicator will flash once every 6 seconds indicating the alarm(s) are now in ‘hush mode’.
  5. Hush mode duration is 10 minutes. After 10 minutes normal smoke alarm operation resumes.
  6. If smoke particles still remain in the air after 10 minutes, the alarm(s) will sound again.
