Maintenance

Perform the following maintenance tasks to ensure that your fire alarm system
works correctly and complies with all required European regulations.
WARNING: Risk of death or serious injury. Disconnect the extinguishing agent
actuator from the control panel before you issue the actuator output test
command. When you confirm the test command, the actuator output is activated
immediately.
Note: Before performing any tests, ensure that fire routing (if configured) is
disabled or that the fire brigade has been notified.
Quarterly maintenance
Contact your installation or maintenance contractor to perform a quarterly
inspection of the system.
This inspection must test at least one device per zone and verify that the control
panel responds to all fault and alarm events. The control panel power supply and
battery voltage should be checked.
Annual maintenance
Contact your installation or maintenance contractor to carry out an annual
inspection of the system.
This inspection must test all system devices and verify that the control panel
responds to all fault and alarm events. All electrical connections must be visually
inspected to make sure that they are securely fastened, that they have not been
damaged, and that they are appropriately protected.
Cleaning
Keep the outside and inside of the control panel clean. Carry out periodic
cleaning using a damp cloth for the outside. Do not use products containing
solvents to clean the unit. Do not clean the inside of the cabinet with liquid
products.
