FOR SERVICING INFORMATION, SEE PAGE 43 ­28­ 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 automatically send signals to your system, triggering a loud, interrupted 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. 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 pair assigned as FIRE emergency (if programmed by the installer) as indicated on page 23. Evacuate all occupants from the premises. If flames and/or smoke are present, leave the premises and notify your local Fire Department immediately. If no flames or smoke are apparent, investigate the cause of the alarm. The zone number(s) of the zone(s) in an alarm condition will be displayed at the Keypad.

Silence the alarm by pressing the OFF key (security code not needed to silence fire alarms). To clear the display, enter your code and press the OFF key again (Memory of Alarm). If the Keypad does not indicate a READY condition after the second OFF sequence, press the READY key to display the zone(s) that are faulted. Be sure to check that smoke detectors are not responding to smoke or heat producing objects in their vicinity. Should this be the case, eliminate the source of heat or smoke. 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. When the problem has been corrected, clear the display by entering your code and pressing the OFF key. ­30­ NATIONAL FIRE PROTECTION ASSOCIATION RECOMMENDATIONS ON SMOKE DETECTORS General With regard to the number and placement of smoke/heat detectors, we subscribe to the recommendations contained in the National Fire Protection Association's Standard #74 noted below. Early warning fire detection is best achieved by the installation of fire detection equipment in all rooms and areas of the premises as follows: A smoke detector installed outside of each separate sleeping area, in the immediate vicinity of the bedrooms and on each additional story of the family living unit, including basements and excluding crawl spaces and unfinished attics. [. . . ] Longevity of batteries may be as much as 4 to 7 years, depending on the environment, usage, and the specific wireless device being used. External factors such as humidity, high or low temperatures, as well as large swings in temperature, may all reduce the actual battery life in a given installation. This wireless system, however, can identify a true low battery situation, thus allowing time to arrange a change of battery to maintain protection for that given point within the system. Installing an alarm system may make one eligible for lower insurance rates, but an alarm system is not a substitute for insurance. [. . . ]
