Heat Alarm HT-630
Heat Alarm with Wireless Interlink WHT-630
6 7
After completing the ‘learn-in’ procedure,
test the alarms as described in ‘ALARM
TEST’. If any interlinked alarm fails to
respond to the ‘ALARM TEST’, remove
it from its base plate and repeat the
‘learning-in’ process.
Unlearning a Wi-Safe 2 Alarm
To remove an alarm from a network, push
and release, then push and hold the learn
button. When the red LED goes out, release
the button. Once the LED has flashed 5
times you have successfully ‘Unlearned’
the alarm.
When removing an alarm from any Wi-Safe
2 network it is generally good practice to
“unlearn” every alarm (in the same way as
mentioned above) and rebuild the network
once again by following the “learn-in”
process on page 4.
Please note it is important not to rush
the Wi-Safe 2 system and is also good
practice to allow several minutes after
unlearning the system before rebuilding
the network once again.
ALARM TEST
1. Briefly press the test button in the
centre and release.
2. The unit will give an audible alarm
consisting of 2 cycles of 3 loud beeps,
then stop automatically.
3. The red LED on the alarm will flash
rapidly during the audible signal.
As with all electronic alarm products you
should test your heat alarm every week, as
well as any other interlinked alarms.
WARNING: The electronic test button
provides a full test of the alarms
functionality. DO NOT try to test the alarm
with a naked flame, as this might present a
fire hazard in itself.
MAINTENANCE
Vacuum every three months to help keep
the unit working efficiently. Vacuum the
exterior. Prevent vacuum from touching the
unit.
TROUBLESHOOTING
If your heat alarm chirps intermittently:
• Check the location of your alarm.
• If the alarm chirps every 45 seconds
and the amber LED flashes at the same
time, this indicates that the power pack
is low. Replace the unit within 30 days.
• WHT-630 only: If the alarm chirps every
4 hours, another alarm in the network
has a low power pack and needs
replacing.
If the amber LED is flashing and the alarm
is chirping:
• If the amber LED flashes at a different
time to the chirp, this means there’s
a fault with your alarm and it needs
replacing.
If your heat alarm does not sound during
testing:
• Push the centre test button firmly.
• If the unit has been silenced and is in
low sensitivity mode, it may not sound.
Wait 15 minutes.
• Make sure the alarm is securely located
into the base plate.
If the alarm fails to operate correctly
contact Technical Support on: 0800 141
2561.
DISPOSAL
Waste electrical products should not be disposed
of with your other household waste. The alarm is
ideally suited for disposal within the waste electronic
and electrical equipment (WEEE) recycling scheme.
Please recycle where facilities exist. Check with
your local authority, retailer or contact our technical
support team for recycling/disposal advice as
regional variations apply. Once the alarm is
removed from the base plate the internal power pack
(battery) will be deactivated. The unit is now ready for
disposal.
WARNING: Do not attempt to open. Do not burn or
dispose of in fire.

WHERE TO LOCATE
For the best protection heat alarms should
always be installed as part of a complete
fire protection system that also includes
smoke alarms. Heat alarms are best suited
to areas where dust, fumes and moisture
can cause nuisance alarms in smoke
alarms, such as:
• Boiler rooms
• Kitchens
• Laundry rooms
• Lofts
• Garages
Heat alarms should not be installed in
escape routes instead of smoke alarms.
They should only be used in the above
applications and where possible be
interlinked to smoke alarms. (Smoke
alarms should be installed in circulation
areas forming part of the escape routes
and in every room in the house.)
When heat alarms are installed in a room,
they should be placed on the ceiling, ideally
in the centre of the room. They should be
at a distance no greater than 5.3m from the
farthest wall, no greater than 5.3m from a
door to any room in which a fire might
start and no greater than 5.3m from the
next heat alarm.
NOTE: HEAT ALARMS SHOULD NOT BE
WALL MOUNTED.
Install sufficient alarms to compensate for
closed doors and obstacles, which may
interfere with the path of heat to an alarm
and may prevent occupants from hearing
an alarm.

IMPORTANT: These heat alarms are
intended primarily for use in single
occupancy private dwellings. For use
in other applications the manufacturers
advice should be sought.
INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT: Please read ‘WHERE TO
LOCATE’ before installing the alarm.
Fit the base plate to the ceiling using the
screws provided (knock-out the tabs as
required).
To fit the alarm to the base plate included
in this pack, position the alarm on the
plate, then turn clockwise until the alarm
is locked into position. Make sure that the
alarm is twisted fully. The power pack will
now activate. The red LED on the front
of the alarm should flash once every 45
seconds to show that it is active.
WIRELESS INTERLINK
(WHT-630 only)
The WHT-630 heat alarm contains an
inbuilt RF module, which enables you
to wirelessly interlink up to 50 Wi-Safe 2
products to create a network. Therefore the
WHT-630 alarms need to be ‘learned-in’ or
interlinked in order to communicate with
each other , or other alarms with Wi-Safe
2 technology.
Once a network has been established, if
one alarm activates, all other interlinked
alarms will also sound. Please note that
WHT-630s can only be interlinked with
other WHT-630s and products within the
Wi-Safe 2 range.
The process below describes ‘learning-in’
two alarms into a network, ‘Alarm 1’ and
‘Alarm 2’:
1. Install ‘Alarm 1’ as described previously.
2. Install the base plate for ‘Alarm 2’ in
one of the recommended locations. Do
not fit the second alarm onto its base
plate yet.
3. On ‘Alarm 2’, using a ballpoint pen or a
paperclip opened out, briefly push and
release the learn button , located in a
circular hole in the back of the alarm.

Learn-in button
4. The red LED next to the learn button
will flash briefly then light up for 5
seconds to show it’s ready to receive
the ‘learn-in’ signal. During these
5 seconds you will need to briefly
press the test button on ‘Alarm 1’ to
wirelessly interlink the two alarms.
5. ‘Alarm 1’ will give an audible sound
consisting of 2 cycles of 3 loud beeps.
The red LED on the wireless module of
‘Alarm 2’ will flash to indicate that it has
been ‘learned-in’ successfully.
6. PLEASE NOTE: If the test button is
not pressed quickly enough (before
the red LED on ‘Alarm 2’ has gone
out), the ‘learn-in’ process will fail.
If this happens, repeat the process
again, as described above.
7. Fit ‘Alarm 2’ onto its base plate to
complete the installation.
Additional alarms should be ‘learned-
in’ in the same way. When ‘learning-in’
additional alarms, any alarm already in
the network can be used as ‘Alarm 1’.
This means that you can ‘learn-in’ the
additional alarm, into any alarm already
in the network. It will then become part of
the network. You do not have to ‘learn-in’
to each alarm in the network.
