Bypassing Protection Zones; Using The 6 Key - First Alert FA148C User Manual

Using the 6 Key
BYPASS
This key is used when you want to arm your system with one or more
zones intentionally unprotected. Bypassed zones are unprotected and
will not cause an alarm when violated while your system is armed.
All bypasses are removed when an OFF sequence (security
code plus OFF) is performed. Bypasses are also removed if the
arming procedure that follows the bypass command is not successful.
The system will not allow fire zones to be bypassed.
To bypass zones, the system must be disarmed first.
