FIRE ALARM SYSTEM (IF INSTALLED)

General

Your fire alarm system (if installed) is on 24 hours a day, for continuous protection. In the

 

event of an emergency, the strategically located smoke and heat detectors will au-

 

tomatically send signals to your system, triggering a loud, interrupted pulsed sound* from

 

the Keypad(s). This 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 (see below

 

for silencing fire alarms).

 

* Temporal pulse sounding is produced for Fire alarms, as follows:

 

3 pulses–pause–3 pulses–pause–3 pulses. . . , repeated.

Silencing 1.

You can silence the alarm at any time by pressing the OFF key (the security code is

Fire Alarms

not needed to silence fire alarms). To clear the display, enter your code and press the

 

OFF key again (to clear Memory of Alarm).

2.

If the Keypad's fire indication does not clear after the second OFF sequence, smoke

 

detectors may still be responding to smoke or heat producing objects in their vicinity.

 

Investigate, and should this be the case, eliminate the source of heat or smoke.

3.

If this does not remedy the problem, there may still be smoke in the detector. Clear it

 

by fanning the detector for about 30 seconds.

4.

When the problem has been corrected, clear the display by entering your code and

 

pressing the OFF key.
