Please Read Carefully to Installers warning contains vital information As the only individual in contact with sys users it is your responsibility to bring each item in this warning to the attention the users of this system Failures system has been carefully designed to be as effective as possible There are cir however involving fire burglary or other types of emergencies where may not provide protection Any alarm system of any type may be compromised or may fail to operate as expected for a variety of reasons Some but not of these reasons may be Installation security system must be installed properly in order to provide adequate protec Every installation should be evaluated by a security professional to ensure that access points and areas are covered Locks and latches on windows and doors be secure and operate as intended Windows doors walls ceilings and other materials must be of sufficient strength and construction to provide the of protection expected A reevaluation must be done during and after any con activity An evaluation by the fire and or police department is highly rec if this service is available Knowledge system contains security features which were known to be effective at the time manufacture It is possible for persons with criminal intent to develop techniques reduce the effectiveness of these features It is important that a security sys be reviewed periodically to ensure that its features remain effective and that it updated or replaced if it is found that it does not provide the protection expected by Intruders may enter through an unprotected access point circumvent a sensing evade detection by moving through an area of insufficient coverage discon a warning device or interfere with or prevent the proper operation of the sys Failure units intrusion detectors smoke detectors and many other security devices an adequate power supply for proper operation If a device operates from it is possible for the batteries to fail Even if the batteries have not failed must be charged in good condition and installed correctly If a device operates by AC power any interruption however brief will render that device inopera while it does not have power Power interruptions of any length are often by voltage fluctuations which may damage electronic equipment such a security system After a power interruption has occurred immediately conduct complete system test to ensure that the system operates as intended of Replaceable Batteries system wireless transmitters have been designed to provide several years of life under normal conditions The expected battery life is a function of the environment usage and type Ambient conditions such as high humidity or low temperatures or large temperature fluctuations may reduce the expected life While each transmitting device has a low battery monitor which identi when the batteries need to be replaced this monitor may fail to operate as Regular testing and maintenance will keep the system in good operating of Radio Frequency Wireless Devices may not reach the receiver under all circumstances which could include objects placed on or near the radio path or deliberate jamming or other inad radio signal interference Users user may not be able to operate a panic or emergency switch possibly due to per or temporary physical disability inability to reach the device in time or with the correct operation It is important that all system users be in the correct operation of the alarm system and that they know how to when the system indicates an alarm Detectors detectors that are a part of this system may not properly alert occupants of a for a number of reasons some of which follow The smoke detectors may have improperly installed or positioned Smoke may not be able to reach the smoke such as when the fire is in a chimney walls or roofs or on the other side closed doors Smoke detectors may not detect smoke from fires on another level the residence or building fire is different in the amount of smoke produced and the rate of burning detectors cannot sense all types of fires equally well Smoke detectors may provide timely warning of fires caused by carelessness or safety hazards such as in bed violent explosions escaping gas improper storage of flammable overloaded electrical circuits children playing with matches or arson if the smoke detector operates as intended there may be circumstances when is insufficient warning to allow all occupants to escape in time to avoid injury death Detectors detectors can only detect motion within the designated areas as shown in respective installation instructions They cannot discriminate between intrud and intended occupants Motion detectors do not provide volumetric area pro They have multiple beams of detection and motion can only be detected in areas covered by these beams They cannot detect motion which behind walls ceilings floor closed doors glass partitions glass doors or Any type of tampering whether intentional or unintentional such as mask painting or spraying of any material on the lenses mirrors windows or any part of the detection system will impair its proper operation infrared motion detectors operate by sensing changes in temperature How their effectiveness can be reduced when the ambient temperature rises near or body temperature or if there are intentional or unintentional sources of heat in near the detection area Some of these heat sources could be heaters radiators barbeques fireplaces sunlight steam vents lighting and so on Devices devices such as sirens bells horns or strobes may not warn people or someone sleeping if there is an intervening wall or door If warning devices located on a different level of the residence or premise then it is less likely that occupants will be alerted or awakened Audible warning devices may be inter with by other noise sources such as stereos radios televisions air condition or other appliances or passing traffic Audible warning devices however loud not be heard by a hearing impaired person Lines telephone lines are used to transmit alarms they may be out of service or busy for periods of time Also an intruder may cut the telephone line or defeat its by more sophisticated means which may be difficult to detect Time may be circumstances when the system will operate as intended yet the occu will not be protected from the emergency due to their inability to respond to warnings in a timely manner If the system is monitored the response may not in time to protect the occupants or their belongings Failure every effort has been made to make this system as reliable as possible the may fail to function as intended due to the failure of a component Testing problems that would prevent an alarm system from operating as intended can found by regular testing and maintenance The complete system should be tested and immediately after a break in an attempted break in a fire a storm an an accident or any kind of construction activity inside or outside the The testing should include all sensing devices keypads consoles alarm devices and any other operational devices that are part of the system and Insurance of its capabilities an alarm system is not a substitute for property or life An alarm system also is not a substitute for property owners renters or occupants to act prudently to prevent or minimize the harmful effects of an situation of Contents Keypads 2 Crystal Display 4 Sheet 5 Codes
