Smartwares FGA-13410 Gas Detector Instruction Manual

1. Pengenalan

The Smartwares FGA-13410 Gas Detector is designed to enhance safety in your home by detecting the presence of natural gas, city gas, propane, butane, and methane (LNG, LPG). These gases are commonly used for heating, cooking, and water heating. While essential, leaks can lead to explosions, fires, or asphyxiation at high concentrations. This device provides an early warning system with an 85 dB siren to alert you to potential gas leaks.

This detector does not detect carbon monoxide (CO) or carbon dioxide (CO2). For detection of these gases, please refer to other Smartwares products.

• Do not install the detector in areas with high humidity, extreme temperatures, or excessive dust, as this can affect performance.
• The sensor has a lifespan of 5 years. Replace the device after this period to ensure continued protection.
