Testing Deafgard To Fire Alarm - Fireco Deafgard Operating Manual

Version 1.01
Testing Deafgard to your Fire Alarm
1. Turn unit On – see Operating section, page 5.
2. Sound the fire alarm for a minimum of 30 seconds.
3. Deafgard will notify you of the alarm within 20 seconds.
4. Should Deafgard not respond to your fire alarm, it may be that your alarm is too quiet.
Contact Technical Assistance.
Note: Alterations to the premises i.e.: new furniture, carpets etc, may alter the
audibility of your fire alarm. Following alterations a fire alarm test must be carried out to
ensure that Deafgard responds. If it fails to respond to your alarm contact Technical
Assistance. Despite Deafgard self-testing every 7 days, weekly bell tests are highly
recommended. This will ensure Deafgard is responding to the fire alarm.
