5. Instruccions de funcionament

5.1 Water Detection and Alarm

The SINGCALL APE170 Water Leak Detector is equipped with multiple sensors to detect water presence:

• The alarm will sound immediately if two or more adjacent sensor feet at the bottom of the device detect water overflow.
• The alarm will also activate if the two water drop sensors located on the top of the device are covered with water.

Upon detection, the device will emit a loud alarm (up to 120dB). The first alarm sequence will last for 15 seconds. If the water is not removed from the sensors, the alarm will sound again for 2 seconds every 15 seconds until the sensors are dry or the alarm is manually stopped.

Figure 5: The 120dB alarm is designed to be heard throughout your home.

5.2 Aturar l'alarma

Per aturar l'alarma:

• Remove the detector from the water source and dry the sensors completely. The alarm will cease once the sensors are dry.
• Alternatively, press the [TEST] button on the top of the detector to temporarily silence the alarm.

6. Manteniment

Regularly inspect the sensor feet and the top water drop sensors for any dirt, dust, or debris that might interfere with detection. Clean them gently with a soft, dry cloth.

6.2 Substitució de la bateria

When the battery is low, the detector may emit a low battery warning (if applicable, refer to product specifications for specific low battery indicators). To replace the batteries:
