Warranty and Warning Information
6.3.9 Telephone Lines
If telephone lines are used to transmit alarms, they may be out of service or busy for certain
periods of time. Also the telephone lines may be compromised by such things as criminal
tampering, local construction, storms or earthquakes.
6.3.10 Insufficient Time
There may be circumstances when the system will operate as intended, yet the occupants will
not be protected from the emergency due to their inability to respond to the warnings in a
timely manner. If the system is monitored, the response may not occur in time enough to
protect the occupants or their belongings.
6.3.11 Component Failure
Although every effort has been made to make this system as reliable as possible, the system
may fail to function as intended due to the failure of a component.
6.3.12 Inadequate Testing
Most problems that would prevent an alarm system from operating as intended can be
discovered by regular testing and maintenance. The complete system should be tested as
required by national standards and the Local Authority Having Jurisdiction and immediately
after a fire, storm, earthquake, accident, or any kind of construction activity inside or outside
the premises. The testing should include all sensing devices, keypads, consoles, alarm
indicating devices and any other operational devices that are part of the system.
6.3.13 Security and Insurance
Regardless of its capabilities, an alarm system is not a substitute for property or life insurance.
An alarm system also is not a substitute for property owners, renters, or other occupants to act
prudently to prevent or minimize the harmful effects of an emergency situation.
IMPORTANT NOTE: End-users of the system must take care to ensure that the system,
batteries, telephone lines, etc. are tested and examined on a regular basis to ensure the
minimization of system failure.
