Recommendations
INIM Electronics recommends that the entire system be tested on a regular basis (refer to paragraph
2.8
).
2.8
Testing the system
This system has been designed to the highest standards of quality and performance. The system may fail
to function as intended due to the failure of a component. Most problems that prevent a fire control system
from operating as intended can be found by regular testing and maintenance (refer to
Chapter 16 -
Maintenance
).
Testing should include all detectors, signaling devices and any other operational devices that are part of the
system.
2.9
Note to the installer
In order to provide adequate protection and instructions for proper use, you (the installer) must be familiar
with the operating procedure of this device. As the only individual in contact with system users, it is your
responsibility to instruct them on how to use this system properly and to bring to their attention that every
fire is different in the amount of smoke and rate of burning. Therefore, smoke and heat detectors may not
provide timely warning of fires caused by violent explosions, escaping gas or improper storage of
inflammable materials.
Regardless of its capabilities, a fire alarm system is not a substitute for the necessary precautions building
occupants must take to prevent or minimize the harmful effects of fire.
