Fire Alarm System

General

Your fire alarm system (if installed) is on 24 hours a day, providing continuous protection. In the event of an emergency, the installed smoke and heat detectors will automatically send signals to your Control/Communicator, triggering a loud interrupting sound from the keypad. An interrupted sound will also be produced by optional exterior sounders. A FIRE message will appear at your keypad and remain on until you silence the alarm.

In Case Of Fire Alarm

1.Should you become aware of a fire emergency before your detectors sense the problem, go to your nearest keypad and manually initiate an alarm by pressing the panic key assigned as FIRE emergency (if programmed by the installer) and hold down for at least 2 seconds.

2.Evacuate all occupants from the premises.

3.If flames and/or smoke are present, leave the premises and notify your local Fire Department immediately.

4.If no flames or smoke are apparent, investigate the cause of the alarm. The zone descriptor of the zone(s) in an alarm condition will appear at the keypad.

Silencing A Fire Alarm

1.Silence the alarm by entering your code and pressing the OFF key. To clear the display, enter your code and press the OFF key again
