In Case of Fire

alarm will sound and an alarm will be transmitted to the central station.
2. Evacuate all occupants from the premises.
3. If flames and/or smoke are present, leave the premises and notify your local Fire Department
immediately.
4. If no flames or smoke are apparent, investigate the cause of the alarm. The zone number of
the zone(s) in an alarm condition will appear at the touch screen.
In Case of Carbon Monoxide Alarm
1. If a high level of carbon monoxide is detected you should evacuate all occupants from the
premises and immediately move to a spot where fresh air is available, preferably outdoors.
2. From a safe area, contact your security service provider for further instructions.

Silencing a Fire/Carbon Monoxide Alarm

1. Silence the alarm by entering an OFF sequence.
2. To clear the alarm, enter a second OFF sequence.
3 If the touch screen indicates a trouble condition after the second OFF sequence, check that
smoke detectors are not responding to smoke- or heat-producing objects in their vicinity.
Should this be the case, eliminate the source of heat or smoke.
4. If this does not remedy the problem, there may still be smoke in the detector. Clear it by
fanning the detector for about 30 seconds.
5. When the problem has been corrected, clear the display by entering another OFF sequence.
