The components of your security system are designed to be as free of maintenance as

possible. However, there are some things you can do to make sure that your system is

in reliable working condition.

1. Test your

system weekly.

Test the system after any alarm occurs (see TEST/IVG THE SYSTEM).

Each wireless sensor in your system has a 9-volt battery. The system detects a low

battery in any wireless sensor, including smoke detectors, the optional personal

emergency transmitter, and the optional portable wireless keypad. (A low battery in a

portable wireless keypad is detected as soon as one of its keys is pressed, and the

console will display 00.)

Alkaline batteries provide a minimum

of 1 year of operation, and in most units and

applications, provide 2–4 years of service. Actual battery life will depend on the

environment

in which the sensor is used, the number of signals that the transmitter in the

sensor has had to send, and the specific type of sensor. Factors such as humidity,

high

or low temperatures or large

swings in temperature, may all lead to the reduction of

actual battery life in an installation.

If you have a low battery in a wireless sensor, a low battery message is

displayed on the console.

In addition, a battery-operated smoke detector with a low battery also emits a single

“chirp” sound once approximately every

20-30 seconds, identifying itself as the smoke

detector with the weak battery. If you do not replace a smoke detector’s low battery,

the smoke detector may sound continuously, as if there were a fire alarm.

Note:

The low battery message comes on as a warning that battery replacement

in indicated sensor(s) is due within 30 days. In the meantime, the sensor(s) causing the

low battery indication is still fully operational.

Impc?rtant: Use only batteries recommended by your installer as replacement.
