Por favor consulte el Manual de Instrucciones del Sistema para m acerca de las limitaciones conrelaci al uso y funcionamiento del producto e acerca de las limitaciones como la responsabilidad del fabricante Questo manuale contiene informazioni sulle limitazioni riguardanti l e la del prodotto ed informazioni circa i limiti di responsabilit del produttore Si di leggere attentamente l manuale Please Read Carefully to Installers warning contains vital information As the only individual in con with system users it is your responsibility to bring each item in warning to the attention of the users of this system Failures system has been carefully designed to be as effective as possible are circumstances however involving fire burglary or other of emergencies where it may not provide protection Any alarm of any type may be compromised deliberately or may fail to as expected for a variety of reasons Some but not all of these may be Inadequate Installation security system must be installed properly in order to provide ade protection Every installation should be evaluated by a security to ensure that all access points and areas are covered and latches on windows and doors must be secure and operate intended Windows doors walls ceilings and other building materi must be of sufficient strength and construction to provide the level protection expected A reevaluation must be done during and after construction activity An evaluation by the fire and or police is highly recommended if this service is available Criminal Knowledge system contains security features which were known to be effec at the time of manufacture It is possible for persons with criminal to develop techniques which reduce the effectiveness of these It is important that a security system be reviewed periodically ensure that its features remain effective and that it be updated or if it is found that it does not provide the protection expected Access by Intruders may enter through an unprotected access point circumvent a device evade detection by moving through an area of insuffi coverage disconnect a warning device or interfere with or pre the proper operation of the system Power Failure units intrusion detectors smoke detectors and many other devices require an adequate power supply for proper opera If a device operates from batteries it is possible for the batteries fail Even if the batteries have not failed they must be charged in condition and installed correctly If a device operates only by AC any interruption however brief will render that device inopera while it does not have power Power interruptions of any length are accompanied by voltage fluctuations which may damage elec equipment such as a security system After a power interruption occurred immediately conduct a complete system test to ensure the system operates as intended Failure of Replaceable Batteries system wireless transmitters have been designed to provide sev years of battery life under normal conditions The expected battery is a function of the device environment usage and type Ambient such as high humidity high or low temperatures or large fluctuations may reduce the expected battery life While transmitting device has a low battery monitor which identifies the batteries need to be replaced this monitor may fail to operate expected Regular testing and maintenance will keep the system in operating condition Compromise of Radio Frequency Wireless Devices may not reach the receiver under all circumstances which include metal objects placed on or near the radio path or deliber jamming or other inadvertent radio signal interference System Users user may not be able to operate a panic or emergency switch possi due to permanent or temporary physical disability inability to the device in time or unfamiliarity with the correct operation It important that all system users be trained in the correct operation of alarm system and that they know how to respond when the system an alarm Smoke Detectors detectors that are a part of this system may not properly alert of a fire for a number of reasons some of which follow The detectors may have been improperly installed or positioned may not be able to reach the smoke detectors such as when the is in a chimney walls or roofs or on the other side of closed doors detectors may not detect smoke from fires on another level of residence or building fire is different in the amount of smoke produced and the rate of Smoke detectors cannot sense all types of fires equally well detectors may not provide timely warning of fires caused by or safety hazards such as smoking in bed violent explo escaping gas improper storage of flammable materials over electrical circuits children playing with matches or arson if the smoke detector operates as intended there may be circum when there is insufficient warning to allow all occupants to in time to avoid injury or death Motion Detectors detectors can only detect motion within the designated areas as in their respective installation instructions They cannot dis between intruders and intended occupants Motion detectors not provide volumetric area protection They have multiple beams detection and motion can only be detected in unobstructed areas by these beams They cannot detect motion which occurs walls ceilings floor closed doors glass partitions glass doors windows Any type of tampering whether intentional or uninten such as masking painting or spraying of any material on the mirrors windows or any other part of the detection system will its proper operation infrared motion detectors operate by sensing changes in tem However their effectiveness can be reduced when the ambi temperature rises near or above body temperature or if there are or unintentional sources of heat in or near the detection Some of these heat sources could be heaters radiators stoves fireplaces sunlight steam vents lighting and so on Warning Devices devices such as sirens bells horns or strobes may not warn or waken someone sleeping if there is an intervening wall or If warning devices are located on a different level of the resi or premise then it is less likely that the occupants will be alerted awakened Audible warning devices may be interfered with by noise sources such as stereos radios televisions air conditioners other appliances or passing traffic Audible warning devices how loud may not be heard by a hearing impaired person Telephone Lines telephone lines are used to transmit alarms they may be out of ser or busy for certain periods of time Also an intruder may cut the line or defeat its operation by more sophisticated means may be difficult to detect Insufficient Time may be circumstances when the system will operate as intended the occupants will not be protected from the emergency due to their to respond to the warnings in a timely manner If the system monitored the response may not occur in time to protect the occu or their belongings Component Failure every effort has been made to make this system as reliable as the system may fail to function as intended due to the failure a component Inadequate Testing problems that would prevent an alarm system from operating as can be found by regular testing and maintenance The com system should be tested weekly and immediately after a break in attempted break in a fire a storm an earthquake an accident or kind of construction activity inside or outside the premises The should include all sensing devices keypads consoles alarm devices and any other operational devices that are part of the Security and Insurance of its capabilities an alarm system is not a substitute for
