All components are designed and manufactured to

However, it is essential that the installer reads and fully
understands the advice and procedures contained in

with the installation.
During installation, it is important that the procedures
described in this manual are followed in sequence.
This manual should be retained in a safe place for
future reference.

LOCAL AUTHORITY REGULATIONS
Depending on your location within the country, you
may be required by law to notify the Local Authorities
and Police of your new alarm installation.
Local Authority requirements differ from area to area,
therefore, we recommend that you contact your Local
Borough Environmental Officer to obtain full details of
your area's requirements.
SAFETY WARNINGS
Before proceeding with the installation, please note
the following safety warnings:
1. Always follow the manufacturers advice when
using power tools, steps, ladders etc. and wear
suitable protective equipment (e.g. safety goggles)
when drilling holes and hammering home cable
clips etc.
2. Before drilling holes in walls, check for hidden
cables and pipes. The use of a cable/pipe locator
may be advisable if in any doubt.
3. When using ladders, ensure that they are
positioned on a firm stable surface at the correct
angle and suitably secured before use.
4. The use of ear defenders is advisable when working
in close proximity to the Siren due to the high sound
level produced by this device.
SYSTEM SECURITY
This system has been designed to both detect intruders
and act as a strong deterrent to would-be intruders.
Please remember that, given adequate knowledge and
time, it is possible to overcome any alarm system and
we therefore recommend that an Intruder Alarm is used
in conjunction with good physical protection such as
security windows and door locks.
The system is operated from the Control Panel using a
4 digit User Access code. Care should be taken to
ensure that your User Access code does not become
known to other people as this will compromise the
security of your system. In this event the User Access
code should be changed as soon as possible.
