IMPORTANT SAFETY TIPS
1. Do not install the system where it will be exposed to direct sunlight or rain.
2. The built-in siren is very loud, never put the system close to your ear.
3. The system should be installed away from heat sources such as radiators, heating ducts and stoves.
4. If the system sounds at random, it is possible that the installed location is too close to a humidity source, changing the
location or direction of the unit may correct the problem.
5. The system can provide valuable protection for your home and property if utilized properly. However, this unit cannot
guarantee complete protection against property damage. Therefore, we will not be responsible for any losses or damages
which may occur, while using this product.
ANSWERING MACHINES AND “CALL IN” FEATURES
If you intend to use the “CALL IN” features for remote operation by telephone of the Auto-Dialer (see SYSTEM OPERATION,
4. REMOTE OPERATION BY TELEPHONE for details) you cannot use an answering machine.
To use the “call in” features: Set the auto-dialer to respond (pick up) before your answering machine responds (see AUTO-
DIALER SET UP, 10. CALL IN RING DETECT CYCLE for details) . For example, if your answering machine is set to pick up
after 5 rings then set the auto-dialer to pick up after 3 rings, this way your Auto-Dialer will pick up first, allowing you to enter
your key selection. Complete instructions on setting up the call in features are in the SYSTEM OPERATION section.
If an answering machine is required, set the auto-dialer to respond after your answering machine normally responds (set it to
10 rings) this will ensure that the answering machine is first to respond. The ability to call in to the system and use the “call in
features will not be available.
The water detection and call out features of the Auto Dialer will function normally.
