Smart Gas Detector

FAQ

How do Aqara smoke alarms work?

Aqara smoke alarms use the principle of scattering of light by smoke particles. When the smoke concentration is higher, the more pronounced the scattering is and the stronger the photocurrent generated, thus triggering a fire alarm.

Under what conditions can the device achieve 10 years of battery life?

The smoke detector's ability to achieve up to 10 years of battery life is based on testing conducted in an environment with a normal temperature of 25 degrees Celsius and humidity of 50%-65%, connected through the Aqara Hub M2 to the Aqara Home platform, and estimated based on triggering one alarm every 30 days, with each alarm lasting 5 minutes.\nIf the device is connected to third-party platforms, especially when bridged through third-party Hubs to third-party platforms, inconsistent data interaction settings between the platform and device may cause the device to frequently self-activate or maintain high connection states, resulting in increased power consumption. Additionally, since third-party battery level plugins have their own battery calculation logic and display rules, the displayed battery level may not match the device's actual battery level. Please use Aqara Home's battery display and actual usage as the standard, and consider third-party platform battery displays for reference only.

Can Aqara smoke alarms be used alone?

Aqara smoke alarm can be used alone, only local sound and light alarm when not connected to the gateway, and remote alarm and intelligent linkage when connected to ZigBee gateway.

How can the Automated alarm function between smoke detectors be implemented?

1. Open the App, and enter the device details page of any smoke detector.\n2. Press the \"More\" button in the upper right corner of the page, and select Device settings.\n3. Find and enter the Automated alarm in Device settings.\n4. First, slide the switch on the right side of the current device to the \"ON\" position.\n5. In the device list below, slide the switches of other smoke detectors that need to be linked to enable their linkage.

What are the possible reasons for the failure to add Aqara smoke alarms?

1、Operation error, please re-add the device according to the instructions or the App.
2、The distance between the device and the gateway is too far or too much blocking, it is recommended that the distance is not more than 20 meters and the blocking is not more than two walls, please try again after the device is close to the gateway.
3、 The current gateway does not support the addition of the device, more supported gateway models, please consult customer service

What are the precautions for installing Aqara smoke alarms?

1、The equipment is for indoor installation only.
2、It should not be installed in places such as kitchens where non-fire smoke and vapour are likely to interfere.

5、It should be kept at a distance of more than 0.5m from walls, beams and obstructions.
6、Should be installed horizontally, when it is necessary to tilt the installation, the tilt angle should not be greater than 45 degrees.
7、It should not be installed in places where the temperature is below -10C or above 55C.
8、It is recommended to use the screw installation method.
9、When using the paste method of installation, the installation surface must be cleaned beforehand to ensure that the installation surface is smooth, flat, dry and clean;

What are the possible causes of false fire alarms with Aqara smoke alarms?

1、 False alarms caused by cooking fumes or steam.
2、False alarm caused by condensation on the equipment due to humid weather.
3、 The use of incense, electric mosquito incense, etc. caused by false alarms.
4、 Spraying air freshener, insecticide, etc. causes false alarms caused by the accumulation of large amounts of dust inside the equipment.

How to silence the Aqara smoke alarm after a false alarm?

Press the silence/self-test button on the face of the device; or open the mobile app and press the "silence" button on the device's alarm page to stop the alarm sound.

How long will the alarm sound stop after the Aqara smoke alarm is silenced?

1、 Silencing in case of fire alarm, the alarm tone will stop for approx. 80s.
2、 Silencing in case of fault, low battery, the alarm tone will stop for approx. 8 hours.

What do the flashing lights and chirps of Aqara smoke alarms mean?

1、Fire alarm: red light flashes every 1s, with one chirp every 1 second and one pause every three sounds.
2、Linkage alarm: red light flashes once every 4s, with a chirp every 1 second and a pause every three sounds.
3、Battery low: 1 yellow light flashes every 48s, with a chirp every 48s.
4、 Fault: 3 yellow lights flash every 48s, while three chirps every 48s

Under what circumstances does the Aqara smoke alarm need to be reset? How do I reset it?

1、 If the device is already connected to a Zigbee gateway and you want to change to connect to another new gateway, you will need to smoke to reset and reconnect.
2、 Quickly press the silence/self-test button three times and see the green light blink three times in succession to indicate that the device is starting to reset;"
