SYSTEM 2316 Installation Manual
While the SYSTEM 2316 is an advanced design security system, it does
not offer guaranteed protection against burglary, fire, or other losses.
Any alarm system, whether commercial or residential, is subject to
compromise or failure-to-warn for a variety of reasons. These include:
.
Intruders may gain access through unprotected openings or have the
technical sophistication to bypass an alarm sensor or disconnect an
alarm warning device.
.
Intrusion detectors, smoke detectors, and many sensing devices will
not operate without power. Devices powered by AC will not work if
their AC power supply is off for any reason and their back-up batteries
are missing, dead, or improperly installed.
.
Alarm warning devices such as sirens, bells, and horns may not alert
people or wake up sleepers if they are located on the other side of
closed or partly closed doors. If warning devices are on a different
level of the residence from the bedrooms, they are less likely to waken
or alert people inside the bedrooms.
.
Telephone lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a premise to a
central monitoring station may be out of service or temporarily out of
service. Telephone lines are subject to compromise by sophisticated
methods of attack.
The SYSTEM 2316 is warrantied against manufacturing defects for 18
months from the date of manufacture. The manufacture date is estab-
lished by the date code on the unit. This Limited Warranty does not apply
to any product that has been abused, altered, or misused, whether
physically or electrically. Products returned within five months of
manufacture will be replaced with a new unit.
PROCEDURE FOR RETURNING DAMAGED PRODUCTS
1. Assign your unit a PO/ID number. This is important for tracking
repair status. If you do not assign your unit a PO/ID number, C&K
will ID your product using the order processing date.
2. Enclose your PO/ID number, company name, personal name, and
day time phone number in the return package. If you have an
account with C&K, include your account number as well.
3. Send the unit to C&K SYSTEMS, 107 Woodmere Road, Folsom,
California, 95630. Do not return communicators in their cabi-
nets. The cabinets increase shipping costs and delay repair times.
Note: The contents of this manual have been revised. For
your convenience, dashed lines have been added to
the margins of the document to show the locations of
the changes.

THE LIMITATIONS OF YOUR ALARM SYSTEM

LIMITED WARRANTY

.
Smoke detectors used in conjunction with the alarm system may not
sense fires that start where smoke cannot reach the detectors, such
as chimneys, walls, or roofs, or on the other side of closed doors.
Smoke detectors also may not sense a fire on another level of the
residence or building. A second floor detector, for example, may not
sense a first floor or basement fire. Finally, smoke detectors have
sensing limitations. No smoke detector can sense every kind of fire
every time. In general, detectors may not always warn you about fires
caused by carelessness and safety hazards, like smoking in bed,
violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable
materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with matches,
arson, etc.
.
The most common cause of an alarm system not functioning properly
when an intrusion or fire occurs is inadequate maintenace. Your alarm
system should be tested weekly to make sure all sensors are operat-
ing properly. The SYSTEM 2316 panel and keypads should also
be tested.
.
Installing an alarm system may make you eligible for lower insurance
rates, but an alarm system is not a substitute for insurance.
Homeowners, property owners, and renters should continue to insure
their lives and property.
4. Once your unit is received at C&K, it will be assigned an RMA
(Return Material Authorization) number.
5. Replacement units will be returned either COD or NET-30 (depend-
ing on your account status), to the address you specify.
6. All warranty replacements will be shipped via UPS ground service,
with shipping charges pre-paid.
7. All out-of-warranty replacements will be shipped via UPS ground
service, with shipping charges attached.
8. If you require a faster shipping method than UPS ground service,
include specific instructions with the damaged unit. Accelerated
shipping charges will be added to NET-30 or COD billing. COD fast-
ship orders will only be sent via UPS air.
