Page 4: Testing And Operation
To make your Strobe Light tamper resistant, a locking pin has been provided with your Strobe Light. Using this pin will deter individuals from removing the Strobe Light from the trim ring. To use the pin, insert it into the hole in the side of the Strobe Light after the Strobe Light has been installed on the trim ring (see fig.6.). - Page 5 9. LIMITATIONS OF ALARM CONTROLLED VISUAL SIGNALLING DEVICES Visual signalling devices can provide early warning to hearing impaired individuals. However, in order for the visual signalling device to function, it must be activated by an operating alarm. Alarms cannot provide an activation signal to the visual signalling device if smoke, heat or carbon monoxide do not reach the specific alarm.
- Page 6 12.1 PSA Products Pty Ltd warrants that for three years from the date of purchase of the Visual Alarm, it will repair or replace the Visual Alarm (at the option of PSA Products Pty Ltd.) due to any manufacturing defect, at the cost of PSA Products Pty Ltd. (excluding any labour costs relating to removal or re-installation of product, and transport costs).
