Introduction
Thank you for choosing this Yale EF Series Alarm System.
This simple to install system has been designed with the
user in mind.
All the components are self contained and no connections
are needed between the units. There is no need to
damage the home decor, lift carpets or run cables.
You can install up to 30 devices in this system. As well as
extra Door/Window Contacts, PIR Motion Detectors and
Smoke Detectors, you can add Key Fobs and Key Pads
for added control convenience.
There is no need to wire into the mains supply or seek
the services of a qualified electrician. All components are
powered by battery (all batteries included). Regular testing
and battery changes (when notified by the system) will
ensure reliability and peace of mind.
All components are 'tamper' protected. Any unauthorised
tampering with the system will result in an alarm. This
feature can be turned off by the user when a battery
change is required.
Display extreme caution when using ladders or steps,
please follow manufacturer instructions. Be careful when
using hand and power tools and follow the manufacturers'
guidelines when using them. Take care that the correct
tools are used. Wear goggles or protective clothing where
required.
The Siren is extremely loud, please ensure you replace the
cover and retreat to a safe distance before testing.

This alarm system is NOT compatible with HSA6000
series and HSA3000 series accessories. Please note the
prefix "EF-" on the front of the part number to indicate
compatibility. (Note: Not compatible with accessories that
