sSmoke Detectors for Minimum Protection
Smoke Detectors for Additional Protection
Heat-Activated Detectors
With regard to the number and placement of
smoke/heat detectors, we subscribe to the
recommendations contained in the National Fire
Protection Associations (NFPA) Standard #74
noted below.
Early warning fire detection is best achieved by
the installation of fire detection equipment in all
rooms and areas of the household as follows: A
smoke detector installed outside of each
separate sleeping area, in the immediate vicinity
of the bedrooms and on each additional story of
the family living unit, including basements and
excluding crawl spaces and unfinished attics.
In addition, the NFPA recommends that you
install heat or smoke detectors in the living
room, dining room, bedroom(s), kitchen,
hallway(s), attic, furnace room, utility and
storage rooms, basements and attached
garages.

PORCHCLOSET
Establish and regularly practice a plan of escape in the event of fire. The following steps
are recommended by the National Fire Protection Association:
1 . Plan on your detector or your interior and/or exterior sounders warning all occupants.
2 . Determine two means of escape from each room. One path of escape should lead to
the door that permits normal exit from the building. The other may be a window,
should your path be unpassable. Station an escape ladder at such windows if there
is a long drop to the ground.
3 . Sketch a floor plan of the building. Show windows, doors, stairs and rooftops that
can be used to escape. Indicate escape routes for each room. Keep these routes
free from obstruction and post copies of the escape routes in every room.
4 . Make sure that all bedroom doors are shut while you are asleep. This will prevent
deadly smoke from entering while you escape.
5 . Try the door. If the door is hot, check your alternate escape route. If the door is cool,
open it cautiously. Be prepared to slam the door if smoke or heat rushes in.
6 . In smoky areas, crawl close to floor, hold your breath, and/or cover mouth and nose
with a wet cloth.
7 . Escape quickly; dont panic.
8. Establish a common meeting place outdoors, away from your premises, where
everyone can meet and then take steps to contact the authorities and account for
those missing. Choose someone to assure that nobody returns to the premises —
many die going back.

PROTECTION ZONES LIST
One or more sensing devices will have been assigned by the installer of your alarm system to each of the various
protection zones in your system 
(although not every zone number can be used).
 For example, the sensing device on your
Entry/Exit door may have been assigned to zone 01, sensing devices on windows in the master bedroom to zone 02, and
so on.
Zone numbers 07, 95 and 96 represent Keypad Panic alarm functions assigned by the installer (see Page 22). Zone
numbers 08 and 09 are reserved for Duress and Tamper signal reporting to the central station.
This chart may be used to record the specific zone number assignments for your system. Your installer will assist you in
recording this information.

Labonne ne doit pasoublier quil est possible que la conformité aux conditions énoncées ci-dessus nem-pèche pas la dégradation du service dans certaines situations. Actuellement, lesentreprises de télécommunications ne permettent pas que lon raccorde leurmatériel aux prises dabonnés, sauf dans les cas precis prévus par les tarifsparticuliers de ces entreprises.Les réparations du matériel homologué doivent être effectuées pas un centredentretien canadien autorisé désigné par le fournisseur. La compagnie detélécommunications peut demander à lutilisateur de débrancher un appareil à lasuite de réparations ou de modifications effectuées par lutilisateur ou à cause demauvais fonctionnement.Pour sa propre protection, lutilisateur doit sassurer que tous les fils de mise enterre de la source dénergie électrique, des lignes téléphoniques de réseau deconduites deau, sil y en a, soient raccordés ensemble. Cette précaution estparticulièrement importante dans les régions rurales.Avertissement:  Lutilisateur ne doit pas tenter de faire ces raccordements lui-même; il doit avoir recours à un service dinspection des installations électriques, ouà un électricien, selon le cas.Lindice de charge (IC) assigné à chaque dispositif terminal pour éviter toutesurcharge indique le pourcentage de la charge totale qui peut être raccordé à uncircuit  téléphonique fermé utilisé par ce dispositif.

UL NOTICE: This is a Grade A Residential System.
FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION (FCC) Part 15 STATEMENT
This equipment has been tested to FCC requirements and has been found acceptable for use. The FCC requires the following statementfor your information:This equipment generates and uses radio frequency energy and if not installed and used properly, that is, in strict accordance with themanufacturers instructions, may cause interference to radio and television reception. It has been type tested and found to comply withthe limits for a Class B computing device in accordance with the specifications in Part 15 of FCC Rules, which are designed to providereasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will notoccur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined byturning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:• If using an indoor antenna, have a quality outdoor antenna installed.• Reorient the receiving antenna until interference is reduced or eliminated.• Move the radio or television receiver away from the receiver/control.• Move the antenna leads away from any wire runs to the receiver/control.• Plug the receiver/control into a different outlet so that it and the radio or television receiver are on different branch circuits.If necessary, the user should consult the dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for additional suggestions. The user orinstaller may find the following booklet prepared by the Federal Communications Commission helpful:
Interference Handbook
This booklet is available from the U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, DC 20402.The user shall not make any changes or modifications to the equipment unless authorized by the Installation Instructions or UsersManual.  Unauthorized changes or modifications could void the users authority to operate the equipment.
IN THE EVENT OF TELEPHONE OPERATIONAL PROBLEMS
In the event of telephone operational problems, disconnect the control by removing the plug from the RJ31X wall jack. We recommend
that your certified installer demonstrate disconnecting the phones on installation of the system. Do not disconnect the phone
connection inside the control/communicator. Doing so will result in the loss of your phone lines. If the regular phone works correctly
after the control/communicator has been disconnected from the phone lines, the control/communicator has a problem and should be
returned for repair. If upon disconnection of the control/communicator, there is still a problem on the line, notify the telephone company
that they have a problem and request prompt repair service. The user may not under any circumstances (in or out of warranty) attempt
any service or repairs to the system. It must be returned to the factory or an authorized service agency for all repairs.
