Warning! Please Read Carefully
N o t e t o I n s t a l l e r s
This warning contains vital information. As the only individual in con-
tact with system users, it is your responsibility to bring each item in
this warning to the attention of the users of this system.
S y s t e m F a i l u re s
This system has been carefully designed to be as effective as possible.
There are circumstances, however, involving fire, burglary, or other
types of emergencies where it may not provide protection. Any access
system of any type may be compromised deliberately or may fail to
operate as expected for a variety of reasons. Some but not all of these
reasons may be:
Inadequate Installation
An access system must be installed properly in order to provide ade-
quate protection. Every installation should be evaluated by a qualified
professional to ensure that every access point is adequately controlled
to the building owner’s or facility management’s expectations. Electric
solenoid locks, magnetic locks and gate controllers should be secure
and operate as intended. All latches used with the system should have
adequate holding power (lbs of force) and latch cavity size for the door
weight type (glass, wood, steel) used. A reevaluation must be done
during and after construction activity. An evaluation by the fire and/or
postal carrier is recommended if this service is available. All autho-
rized emergency personnel should be able to gain immediate access to
the premises when required.
Criminal Knowledge
This system contains security features which were known to be effec-
tive at the time of manufacture. It is possible for persons with criminal
intent to develop techniques which reduce the effectiveness of these
features. It is important that a security system be reviewed periodically
to ensure that its features remain effective and that it be updated or
replaced if it is found that it does not provide the protection expected.
Access by Intruders
Intruders may enter through an unprotected access point, circumvent a
sensing device, evade detection by moving through an area of insuffi-
cient coverage, disconnecting a device, immediately following a per-
son through the controlled gate or door, or interfering with the proper
operation of the system.
Power Failure
Control units, intrusion detectors, smoke detectors and many other
security devices require an adequate power supply for proper opera-
tion. If a device operates from batteries, it is possible for the batteries to
fail. Even if the batteries have not failed, they must be charged, in good
condition and installed correctly. If a device operates only by AC
power, any interruption, however brief, will render that device inopera-
tive while it does not have power. Power interruptions of any length are
often accompanied by voltage fluctuations which may damage elec-
tronic equipment such as a security system. After a power interruption
has occurred, immediately conduct a complete system test to ensure
that the system operates as intended.
System Users
A user may not be able to operate the system due to permanent or tem-
porary physical disability, inability to reach the keypad, or unfamiliar-
ity with the correct operation. It is important that all system users be
trained in the correct operation of the system and that they know how
to respond when prompted.
Warning Devices
Warning devices such as sirens, bells, horns, or strobes may not warn
people or waken someone sleeping if there is an intervening wall or
door. If warning devices are located on a different level of the premise,
then it is less likely that the occupants will be alerted or awakened.
Audible warning devices may be interfered with by other noise sources
such as stereos, radios, televisions, air conditioners or other appliances,
or passing traffic. Audible warning devices, however loud, may not be
heard by a hearing-impaired person.
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.
Security and Insurance
Regardless of its capabilities, a system is not a substitute for property
or life insurance. A 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.
