8.0 FIRE ALARM OPERATION

18 User’s Manual
Note: IF A FIRE CONDITION EXISTS, FOLLOW YOUR EVACUATION PLAN IMMEDIATELY! If there is no fire condition, contact your monitoring company without delay to avoid an unnecessary response.
Fire Safety in the Home
Reasonable fire safety can be achieved byfollowing a three point program:
1.Minimizing fire hazards (i.e. smoking in bed, etc.)
2.Providing a fire warning system
3.Having and practicing an escape plan
Providing a Fire Warning System
Household fires are especially dangerous at night. Fires produce smoke and deadly gases that can overcome occupants while they sleep. To warn against fire, smoke detectors should be installed outside of each separate sleeping area in the immediate vicinity of the bedroom s and on each additional story of the family living unit, including basements.
Having and Practicing an Escape Plan
There often may be very little time between detection of a fire and the time that it becomes deadly. Advance warning of a fire may be wasted unless the family has planned for a rapid exit from their residence. The following should be considered:
• Plan and practice for fire conditions with the focus on rapid exit from the residence.
Esprit Keypads 19
• Drills should be held so that all family members know what to do. Each person should plan for the possibility that an
• exit out of the bedroom window may be necessary. An exit out of the residence that does not require the opening of a bedroom door is essential.
Provision for the Disabled
For special circumstances where life-safety of some occupant(s) depends upon prompt rescue by others, the fire warning system includes a means of prompt, automatic notification to those who are to be depended upon for the rescue.

9.0 SYSTEM MAINTENANCE

Under normal use, your system requires virtually no maintenance other than regular testing.
9.1 TESTING YOUR SYSTEM
It is recommend that your system be tested once a week. Contact your monitoring station BEFORE and AFTER testing.
9.1.1 Burglar Alarm Testing
With the system disarm ed and the “ready” light on, activate motion detectors (walk in protected area). Open and close protected doors. Observe the zone light. It should come on following each activation.
20 User’s Manual
Your installer can advise you of the best way to test your particular system.
9.1.2 Fire Alarm Testing
CAUTION: Do not use open flame or burning materials to test your fire detection devices. Contact your alarm installer to discuss safe methods to test your system.
