LIMITED WARRANTY

Digital Security Controls warrants that for a period of twelve months from the date of purchase, the
product shall be free of defects in materials and workmanship under normal use and that in fulfill-
ment of any breach of such warranty, Digital Security Controls shall, at its option, repair or replace
the defective equipment upon return of the equipment to its repair depot. This warranty applies only
to defects in parts and workmanship and not to damage incurred in shipping or handling, or damage
due to causes beyond the control of Digital Security Controls such as lightning, excessive voltage,
mechanical shock, water damage, or damage arising out of abuse, alteration or improper application
of the equipment.

The foregoing warranty shall apply only to the original buyer, and is and shall be in lieu of any and
all other warranties, whether expressed or implied and of all other obligations or liabilities on the
part of Digital Security Controls. Digital Security Controls neither assumes responsibility nor autho-
rizes any other person purporting to act on its behalf to modify or to change this warranty, nor to
assume for it any other warranty or liability concerning this product.

In no event shall Digital Security Controls be liable for any direct, indirect or consequential damages,
loss of anticipated profits, loss of time or any other losses incurred by the buyer in connection with
the purchase, installation or operation or failure of this product.

Smoke Detectors: Smoke detectors that are a part of this system may not properly alert occupants of
a fire for a number of reasons, some of which follow. The smoke detectors may have been improperly
installed or positioned. Smoke may not be able to reach the smoke detectors, such as when the fire is
in a chimney, walls or roofs, or on the other side of closed doors. Smoke detectors may not detect
smoke from fires on another level of the residence or building.

Every fire is different in the amount of smoke produced and the rate of burning. Smoke detectors
cannot sense all types of fires equally well. Smoke detectors may not provide timely warning of fires
caused by carelessness or safety hazards such as smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas,
improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with
matches or arson.

Even if the smoke detector operates as intended, there may be circumstances when there is insuffi-
cient warning to allow all occupants to escape in time to avoid injury or death.

Warning: Digital Security Controls recommends that the entire system be completely tested on a regular
basis. However, despite frequent testing, and due to, but not limited to, criminal tampering or electrical dis-
ruption, it is possible for this product to fail to perform as expected.

Important Information: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Digital Security Controls
could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment.
