General Congratulations on your ownership of a

A Partitioned

System

Zones Your system's sensing devices have been assigned to various "zones." For example,

First Alert

System. You've made a wise decision in choosing it, for it represents the latest in
security protection technology today.

This system offers you three forms of protection: burglary, fire and emergency. Your
system consists of at least one keypad which provides control of system operation,
and includes various sensors which provide perimeter and interior burglary protection,
plus smoke or combustion detectors designed to provide early warning in case of fire.

The system uses microcomputer technology to monitor all protection zones and
system status and provides appropriate information for display on the keypad(s) used
with the system, and initiates appropriate alarms. Your system may also have been
programmed to automatically transmit alarm or status messages over the phone lines
to a central alarm monitoring station.

Simply stated, a partitioned system is a single physical alarm system that provides two
independent areas of protection intended for use by separate users. For the most part,
you need not know about other users and their structure in the system. However, when
the system is set up for 2-partition operation, you may see display messages from time
to time which indicate that the system is in use by another user. Do not be concerned,
this is normal.

the sensing device on your Entry/Exit door may have been assigned to zone 01,
sensing devices on windows in the master bedroom to zone 02, and so on. These
numbers will appear on the display, along with a description for that zone (on Alpha
display keypads only, if programmed) when an alarm or trouble condition occurs.

Burglary

Protection

Security Codes At the time of installation, you were assigned a personal four-digit security code,

Your system provides four modes of burglary protection: STAY, AWAY, INSTANT and
MAXIMUM, and allows you to BYPASS selected zones while leaving the rest of the
system armed. You must turn on or "arm" the burglary protection portion of your
system before it will sense burglary alarms. The system also provides a CHIME mode,
for alerting users to the opening of protected doors and windows while the system is
disarmed. Refer to the other sections of this manual for procedures for using these
features.

The following table lists the four different arming modes and the results of each.

Arming

Mode Exit Delay Entry Delay Perimeter Armed Interior Armed

AWAY Yes Yes Yes Yes
STAY Yes Yes Yes No
INSTANT Yes No Yes No
MAXIMUM Yes No Yes Yes

known only to you. You must enter the security code when arming and disarming the
system, and when performing other system functions. As an additional safety feature,
other users who do not have a need to know your code can be assigned different
security codes. Refer to the SECURITY CODES section for procedures on adding
security codes to the system.

Features For Each Arming Mode

SSSSYYYYSSSSTTTTEEEEMMMM OOOOVVVVEEEERRRRVVVVIIIIEEEEWW

Fire Protection The fire protection portion of your security system (if used) is always active and will

sound an alarm if a fire condition is detected. Refer to the FIRE ALARM SYSTEM
section for important information concerning fire protection, smoke detectors and
planning emergency exit routes from the premises.

Alarms When an alarm occurs, both the keypad and external sounders sound, and the keypad

displays the zone(s) causing the alarm. If your system is connected to a central
monitoring station, an alarm message is also sent. To stop the alarm sounding, simply
disarm the system.

Memory of Alarm When an alarm condition occurs, the keypad displays the number(s) of the zone(s) that

caused the problem, and displays the type of alarm (ex. FIRE, ALARM). It remains
displayed until it is cleared by disarming the system (see DISARMING THE SYSTEM
section).

WW

Phone Access &

Voice

Response

Capability

Your system may include a voice module that will permit you to access the system via
a Touch-tone phone, either on-premises or by call-in when away. The phone access
feature will enable you to do the following:

• Receive synthesized voice messages over the telephone regarding the status of the

security system.

• Arm and disarm the system and perform most function commands via the telephone,

with voice confirmation provided after each command entry.

Complete information regarding the use of this feature is provided in a separate
manual entitled PHONE ACCESS USER'S GUIDE, which accompanies the voice
module.

General

Information

Your system has preset time delays, known as exit delay and entry delay. Whenever
you arm your system, exit delay gives you time to leave through the designated exit
door without setting off an alarm. Exit delay begins immediately after entering any
arming command, and applies to all modes of arming protection. If programmed, slow
“beeps” will sound throughout the exit delay period.

Entry Delays give you time to disarm the system when you re-enter through the
designated entrance door. But you must disarm the system before the entry delay
period ends, or an alarm will occur. The keypad beeps during the entry delay period,
reminding you to disarm the system. There are two entry delays (if programmed). The
first is for your primary entrance and the second may be used for a secondary
entrance, where a longer delay is required to walk to the keypad to disarm the system.
The secondary entry delay is 30 seconds longer than your primary entry delay.

You can also arm the system with no entry delay at all by using either INSTANT or
MAXIMUM arming modes. These modes provide greater security while on the
premises or while away for extended periods of time.

See your installer for your delay times.

Exit Alarms

To minimize false alarms
sent to the alarm
monitoring company,
your system may have
been programmed for
this feature. Ask your
installer if "Exit Alarm" is
active for your system.

Exit Alarm Active

Whenever you arm the system, the exit delay begins. If an entry/exit door or interior
zone is faulted when the exit delay ends (e.g., exit door left open), the system sounds
an alarm and starts the entry delay timer. If you disarm the system before the entry
delay ends, the alarm sound stops and the message "CANCELLED ALARM" or "CA" is
displayed on the keypad, along with a zone number indicating the faulted zone. No
message is sent to the alarm monitoring company.

To clear the exit alarm condition, the open zone must be made intact; to clear the
display, enter your code plus OFF.

If you do not disarm the system before the entry delay ends, and an entry/exit door or
interior zone is still open, the alarm sound continues and an "exit alarm" message is
sent to the alarm monitoring company. The message ""EXIT ALARM" or "EA" is
displayed on the keypad, along with a zone number indicating the faulted zone.

To stop the alarm, the system must be disarmed (your code plus OFF); to clear the
display, enter your code plus OFF a second time.

An “exit alarm” also results if an entry/exit door or interior zone is faulted within two
minutes after the end of the exit delay.

Your keypads allow you to control all system functions. The keypads feature a
telephone style (digital) keypad and a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) which shows the
nature and location of all occurrences.

The keypads also feature a built-in sounder which will sound during alarms and
troubles. The keypads also "beep" during certain system functions, such as during
entry/exit delay times, in CHIME mode, and when depressing any of the keys (to
acknowledge the key press).

There are two basic types of keypads – a Fixed-Word keypad and an Alpha key-
pad (both described below). Fixed-Word and Alpha keypads are functionally the
same, even though they have different types of displays.

2-line Alpha keypads feature a 2-line, 32-character alphanumeric LCD which can

RECOMMENDATIONS ON SMOKE DETECTORS

With regard to the number and placement of smoke/heat
detectors, we subscribe to the recommendations
contained in the National Fire Protection Association's
(NFPA) 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 household 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.

In addition, the NFPA recommends that you install heat
or smoke detectors in the living room, dining room,
bedroom(s), kitchen, hallway(s), attic, furnace room,
utility and storage rooms, basements and attached
garages.

Steps to Safety

Establish and regularly practice a plan of escape in the event of fire. The following steps
are recommended by the National Fire Protection Association:

1. Plan on your detector or your interior and/or exterior sounders warning all oc­cupants.

2. Determine two means of escape from each room. One path of escape should lead
to the door that permits normal exit from the build ing. The other may be a window,
should your path be unpassable. Station an escape ladder at such windows if there
is a long drop to the ground.

3. Sketch a floor plan of the building. Show windows, doors, stairs and rooftops that
can be used to escape. Indicate escape routes for each room. Keep these routes
free from obstruction and post copies of the escape routes in every room.

4. Assure that all bedroom doors are shut while you are asleep. This will prevent
deadly smoke from entering while you escape.

5. Try the door. If the door is hot, check your alternate escape route. If the door is
cool, open it cautiously. Be prepared to slam the door if smoke or heat rushes in.

6. In smoky areas, crawl close to floor, hold your breath, and/or cover mouth and nose
with a wet cloth.

7. Escape quickly; don't panic.

8. Establish a common meeting place outdoors, away from your premises, where
everyone can meet and then take steps to contact the authorities and account for
those missing. Choose someone to assure that nobody returns to the premises —
many die going back.

“How to Prepare a Fire Escape Plan”

Wireless sensors
may not have
been used in your
security system

The components of your security system are designed to be as maintenance-free as
possible. However, to make sure that your system is in reliable working condition.

1. Test your system weekly.

2. Test your system after any alarm occurs (see
Each wireless sensor in your system has a 9-volt or 3-volt battery. The system detects

a low battery in any wireless sensor, including smoke detectors, the optional personal
emergency transmitter, and the optional portable wireless keypad. (A low battery in a
portable wireless keypad is detected as soon as one of its keys is pressed, and the
wired keypad will display “00”.)

Alkaline batteries provide a minimum of 1 year of operation, and in most units and
applications, provide 2–4 years of service. 3-volt lithium batteries provide up to 4 or
more years of operation. Actual battery life will depend on the environment in which the
sensor is used, the number of signals that the transmitter in the sensor has had to
send, and the specific type of sensor. Factors such as humidity, high or low
temperatures or large swings in temperature, may all lead to the reduction of actual
battery life in an installation.

If you have a low battery in a wireless sensor, a low battery message is
displayed on the keypad.

In addition, a battery-operated smoke detector with a low battery also emits a single
"chirp" sound approximately once every 20–30 seconds, identifying itself as the smoke
detector with the weak battery.

Note:

indicated sensor(s) is due within 30 days. In the meantime, a sensor causing a low
battery indication is still fully operational.

Important: Use only batteries recommended by your installer as replacement.

The following terms are used throughout the manual.

ARM/DISARM: "Armed" simply means that the burglary portion of your system is turned ON and is in a

state of readiness. "Disarmed" means that the burglary system is turned OFF, and
must be rearmed to become operational. However, even in a "disarmed" state,
"emergency" and "fire" portions of your system are still operational.

KEYPAD: This is the area on your Keypad containing numbered pushbuttons similar to those on

telephones or calculators. These keys control the arming or disarming of the system,
and perform other functions which were previously described in this manual.

ZONE: A specific area of protection.

PARTITION: An independent group of zones that can be armed and disarmed without affecting

other zones or users.

BYPASS: To disarm a specific area of burglary protection while leaving other areas operational.

DELAY ZONE: An area of protection containing doors most frequently used to enter or exit (typically, a

front door, back door, or door from the garage into the building). The delay zone allows
sufficient time for authorized entry or exit without causing an alarm. Consult your
installer for the entry and exit delay times that have been set for your system during
installation and record them in the space provided in this manual on page 7.

DAY/NIGHT ZONE: An area of protection whose violation causes a trouble indication during the disarmed

The user or installer may find the following booklet prepared by the Federal Communications Commission helpful: "Interference

Handbook". This booklet is available from the U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, DC 20402.
The user shall not make any changes or modifications to the equipment unless authorized by the Installation Instructions or User's

Manual. Unauthorized changes or modifications could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.

IN THE EVENT OF TELEPHONE OPERATIONAL PROBLEMS

In the event of telephone operational problems, disconnect the control by removing the plug from the RJ31X (CA38A in Canada)
telephone wall jack. We recommend that your certified installer demonstrate disconnecting the phones on installation of the system.
Do not disconnect the phone connection inside the control/communicator. Doing so will result in the loss of your phone lines. If the
regular phone works correctly after the control/communicator has been disconnected from the phone lines, the control/communicator
has a problem and should be returned for repair. If upon disconnection of the control/communicator, there is still a problem on the
line, notify the telephone company that they have a problem and request prompt repair service. The user may not under any
circumstances (in or out of warranty) attempt any service or repairs to the system. It must be returned to the factory or an authorized
service agency for all repairs.

WARNING!

THE LIMITATIONS OF THIS ALARM SYSTEM

While this system is an advanced design security system, it does not offer guaranteed protection against burglary or fire or other
emergency. Any alarm system, whether commercial or residential, is subject to compromise or failure to warn for a variety of reasons.
For example:

• Intruders may gain access through unprotected openings or have the technical sophistication to bypass an alarm sensor or
disconnect an alarm warning device.

• Intrusion detectors (e.g. passive infrared detectors), smoke detectors, and many other sensing devices will not work without power.
Battery operated devices will not work without batteries, with dead batteries, or if the batteries are not put in properly. Devices
powered solely by AC will not work if their AC power supply is cut off for any reason, however briefly.

• Signals sent by wireless transmitters may be blocked or reflected by metal before they reach the alarm receiver. Even if the signal
path has been recently checked during a weekly test, blockage can occur if a metal object is moved into the path.

• A user may not be able to reach a panic or emergency button quickly enough.

• While smoke detectors have played a key role in reducing residential fire deaths in the United States, they may not activate or
provide early warning for a variety of reasons in as many as 35% of all fires, according to data published by the Federal Emergency
Management Agency. Some of the reasons smoke detectors used in conjunction with this System may not work are as follows.
Smoke detectors may have been improperly installed and positioned. Smoke detectors may not sense fires that start where smoke
cannot reach the detectors, such as in chimneys, in walls, or roofs, or on the other side of closed doors. Smoke detectors also may
not sense a fire on another level of a residence or building. A second floor detector, for example, may not sense a first floor or
basement fire. Moreover, smoke detectors have sensing limitations. No smoke detector can sense every kind of fire every time. In
general, detectors may not always warn about fires caused by carelessness and safety hazards like smoking in bed, violent
explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with matches, or
arson. Depending upon the nature of the fire and/or the locations of the smoke detectors, the detector, even if it operates as
anticipated, may not provide sufficient warning to allow all occupants to escape in time to prevent injury or death.

• Passive Infrared Motion Detectors can only detect intrusion within the designed ranges as diagrammed in their installation manual.
Passive Infrared Detectors do not provide volumetric area protection. They do create multiple beams of protection, and intrusion
can only be detected in unobstructed areas covered by those beams. They cannot detect motion or intrusion that takes place
behind walls, ceilings, floors, closed doors, glass partitions, glass doors, or windows. Mechanical tampering, masking, painting or
spraying of any material on the mirrors, windows or any part of the optical system can reduce their detection ability. Passive
Infrared Detectors sense changes in temperature; however, as the ambient temperature of protected area approaches the
temperature range of 90° to 105°F, the detection performance can decrease.

WARNING!

THE LIMITATIONS OF THIS ALARM SYSTEM

(continued)

• Alarm warning devices such as sirens, bells or horns may not alert people or wake up sleepers if they are located on the other side
of closed or partly open doors. If warning devices sound on a different level of the residence from the bedrooms, then they are less
likely to waken or alert people inside the bedrooms. Even persons who are awake may not hear the warning if the alarm is muffled
from a stereo, radio, air conditioner or other appliance, or by passing traffic. Finally, alarm warning devices, however loud, may not
warn hearing-impaired people or waken deep sleepers.

• Telephone lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a premises to a central monitoring station may be out of service or
temporarily out of service. Telephone lines are also subject to compromise by sophisticated intruders.

• Even if the system responds to the emergency as intended, however, occupants may have insufficient time to protect themselves
from the emergency situation. In the case of a monitored alarm system, authorities may not respond appropriately.

• This equipment, like other electrical devices, is subject to component failure. Even though this equipment is designed to last as
long as 10 years, the electronic components could fail at any time.

The most common cause of an alarm system not functioning when an intrusion or fire occurs is inadequate maintenance. This alarm
system should be tested weekly to make sure all sensors and transmitters are working properly.
Installing an alarm system may make one eligible for lower insurance rates, but an alarm system is not a substitute for insurance.
Homeowners, property owners and renters should continue to act prudently in protecting themselves and continue to insure their lives
and property.

We continue to develop new and improved protection devices. Users of alarm systems owe it to themselves and their loved ones to
learn about these developments.

CANADIAN DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNICATIONS (DOC) STATEMENT

NOTICE

The Canadian Department of Communications label identifies
certified equipment. This certification means that the
equipment meets certain telecommunications network
protective, operational and safety requirements. The
Department does not guarantee the equipment will operate to
the user's satisfaction.

Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is
permissible to be connected to the facilities of the local
telecommunications company. The equipment must also be
installed using an acceptable method of connection. In some
cases, the company's inside wiring associated with a single
line individual service may be extended by means of certified
connector assembly (telephone extension cord). The customer
should be aware that compliance with the above conditions
may not prevent degradation of service in some situations.

Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an
authorized Canadian maintenance facility designated by the
supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by the user to this
equipment, or equipment malfunctions, may give the
telecommunications company cause to request the user to
disconnect the equipment.

Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical
ground connections of the power utility, telephone lines and
internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected
together. This precaution may be particularly important in rural
areas.

Caution: User should not attempt to make such connections
themselves, but should contact the appropriate electric
inspection authority, or electrician, as appropriate.

The Load Number (LN) assigned to each terminal device
denotes the percentage of the total load to be connected to a

telephone loop which is used by the device, to prevent
overloading. The termination on a loop may consist of any
combination of devices subject only to the requirement that
the total of the Load Numbers of all the devices does not
exceed 100.

AVIS

L'étiquette du ministère des Communications du Canada identifie le
matériel homologué. Cette étiquette certifie que le matériel est conforme à
certaines normes de protection, d'exploitation et de sécurité des réseaux
de télécommunications. Le ministère n'assure toutefois pas que le matériel
fonctionnera à la satisfaction de l'utilisateur.

Avant d'installer ce matériel, l'utilisateur doit s'assurer qu'il est permis de le
raccorder aux installations de l'entreprise locale de télécommunications. Le
matériel doit également être installé en suivant une méthode acceptée de
raccordement. Dans certains cas, les fils intérieurs de l'entreprise utilisés
pour un service individuel à la ligne unique peuvent être prolongés au
moyen d'un dispositif homologué de raccordement (cordon prolongateur
téléphonique interne). L'abonné ne doit pas oublier qu'il est possible que la
conformité aux conditions énoncées ci-dessus n'empèchet pas la
dégradation du service dans certaines situations. Actuellement, les
entreprises de télécommunications ne permettent pas que l'on raccorde
leur matériel aux prises d'abonnés, sauf dans les cas precis prévus par les
tarifs particuliers de ces entreprises.

Les réparations du matériel homologué doivent être effectuées pas un
centre d'entretien canadien autorisé désigné par le fournisseur. La
compagnie de télécommunications peut demander à l'utilisateur de
débrancher un appareil à la suite de réparations ou de modifications
effectuées par l'utilisateur ou à cause de mauvais fonctionnement.

Pour sa propre protection, l'utilisateur doit s'assurer que tous les fils de
mise en terre de la source d'énergie électrique, des lignes téléphoniques
de réseau de conduites d'eau s'il y en a, soient raccordés ensemble. Cette
précaution est particulièrement importante dans les régions rurales.

Avertissement: L'utilisateur ne doit pas tenter de faire ces raccordements
lui-même; il doit avoir recours à un service d'inspection des installations
électriques, ou à un électricien, selon le cas.

L'indice de charge (IC) assigné à chaque dispositif terminal pour éviter
toute surcharge indique le pourcentage de la charge totale qui peut être

raccordé à un circuit téléphonique bouclé utilisé par ce dispositif. La
terminaison du circuit bouclé peut être constituée de n'importe quelle
combinaison de dispositifs, pourvu que la somme des indices de charge de
l'ensemble des dispositifs ne dépasse pas 100.
