Guardian Technologies PN 8402 manual Warranty information

such as children playing with matches, arson, smoking in bed, improper storage of hazardous materials, violent explosions, escaping gas, or overloaded electrical circuits.

•Even if a smoke detector operates as expected, due to the nature of a particular fire and the location of detectors, the detector may not provide sufficient warning to allow all occupants to safely escape the building.

6)People located on the other side of closed or partially open doors, deep sleepers, or hearing-impaired persons may not be alerted by alarm warning devices such as sirens, horns, bells, etc., no matter how loud. Even individuals who have normal hearing and are awake may not hear the warning devices if the sound is unintelligible because of the noise of home entertainment equipment (e.g., TV, stereo, or radio), appliances (e.g., air conditioners), or the noise of passing traffic.

7)Passive Infrared Detectors (PIR’s) can only detect intrusion in the area covered by their detection beams, as determined by choice of lenses, mounting height, and adjustment of sensors. PIR’s cannot sense intrusion that takes place behind closed doors, walls, ceilings, glass doors or partitions, or windows. PIR’s do not detect motion, but instead sense increases of temperature within the range of their beams. Tampering with any part of the optical system of PIR’s (e.g., painting, spraying any material, masking) can reduce detection ability. Performance of PIR’s can decrease if the ambient temperature in the area covered by their beams increases to 90” to 105°F.

8)Even if the alarm system works as expected, building occupants may not have enough time to protect themselves from the emergency situation. Further, authorities may not respond appropriately to a monitored alarm system.

9)The telephone lines needed to send alarm signals to a monitoring station may be out of service, or may have been tampered with by an intruder.

10)Components of the system, like all electrical devices, are subject to failure.

Although Capricorn Electronics maintains high standards of quality, users should be aware that components can fail at any time.

While many insurance companies offer premium discounts for home and business owners who install alarm systems, do not consider this system a substitute for prudent insurance coverage for buildings and possessions.

Users of alarm systems should be aware of new alarm products and system improve- ments for the sake of their own safety and the safety of their loved ones.
