Servicing Information - AMERITECH AM100 User Manual

•
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 like ly 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.
Your local Ameritech dealer is the person best qualified to service your alarm system.
Arranging some kind of regular service program with him is advisable.
