Incident narrative

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20151113-E64A8-2147426711. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Matched catalog product: Kidde Model 30CUA10. Source model text: RF-SM-DC. Incident: A pan was left on the stove too long, & the contents started smoking. A significant amount of smoke accumulated in the kitchen area. I have a Kidde model RF-SM-DC smoke detector in the kitchen area. It was surrounded by a significant amount of smoke, but did not sound an alarm during the entire time the smoke was in the area. The smoke detector's status light indicated that it was working properly. After the smoke cleared, I pressed the test button, and it sounded an alarm and tested as if worked properly.
