the door is cool, brace your shoulder  
against it and open it cautiously. Be  
ready to slam the door if smoke or  
heat rushes in. Crawl through smoke,  
holding your breath. Close the doors  
again on leaving to help prevent the  
fire from spreading.  
Preparing a Fire Escape Plan  
Even with the most advanced fire alarm  
system, adequate protection requires an  
escape plan.  
2. One person sounds the alarm.  
3. Each person tests his door.  
4. Pretend the door is hot and use the  
alternate escape exit.  
5. Everyone meets outdoors at the  
assigned spot.  
To prepare your plan, draw floor plans of  
your building. (Space is provided on the  
next page). Show two exits - a front or  
back door and a window from each room.  
(Make sure the window works. You may  
need a special fire-escape ladder if the  
window is high up). Write down your  
outside meeting place.  
4. Go to your specific outdoor meeting  
place so you can see that everyone is  
safe.  
5. Assign someone to make sure nobody  
returns to the burning building.  
6. Call the Fire Department from a  
neighbor's telephone.  
Important! - Read Carefully  
Discuss these escape procedures with all  
those who use the building:  
1. In a residence, sleep with the bedroom  
door closed. A closed door will hold  
back deadly smoke while you escape.  
2. When the fire alarm signals, escape  
quickly. Do not stop to pack.

LIMITATIONS OF FIRE ALARM WARNING SYSTEM  
Although a fire alarm system may be of a  
reasons: (a) they may not sense fires that  
start where smoke cannot reach them, such  
as in chimneys, walls, roofs, behind closed  
doors, etc.; (b) they may not sense a fire on a  
different level of the residence or building; (c)  
they have sensing limitations; no smoke  
detector can sense every kind of fire every  
time.  
radio, air conditioner, or other appliance, or  
reliable and state-of- the-art design, neither it  
nor its peripheral detection devices can offer  
guaranteed protection against fire. Any such  
equipment may fail to warn for a variety of  
reasons:  
by passing traffic, etc. Alarm warning  
devices, however loud, may fail to warn the  
hearing impaired.  
Alarm products, as all electrical devices,  
are subject to component failure. Even  
though the equipment is designed for many  
years of trouble-free performance, electronic  
components could fail at any time.  
Control panels, communicators, dialers,  
smoke detectors, and many other sensing  
devices will not work without power. Battery-  
operated devices will not work without  
batteries, with dead batteries, or with  
improperly-installed batteries. Devices  
powered solely by AC will not work if their  
power source is cut off for any reason.  
Thermostatic heat detectors do not  
always detect fires because the fire may be a  
slow smoldering low-heat type (producing  
smoke); because they may not be near the  
fire; or because the heat of the fire may  
bypass them. These detectors will not detect  
oxygen levels, smoke, toxic gases, or flames.  
Therefore, they may only be used as part of  
a comprehensive fire-detection system in  
conjunction with other devices. Under no  
circumstances should thermostatic heat  
detectors be relied upon as the sole measure  
to ensure fire safety.  
Above are some of the reasons that fire  
alarm equipment could fail. The most  
common cause of an alarm system not  
functioning when a fire occurs is inadequate  
testing and maintenance. The system should  
be tested at least weekly to ensure that all  
the equipment is working properly.  
Fires often cause a failure of electrical  
power. If the system does not contain a  
working battery backup power supply, and if  
the electrical circuit feeding the devices is cut  
or is not providing power for any reason, the  
system will not detect heat or smoke or  
provide any warning of a possible fire.  
While an alarm system may make one  
eligible for lower insurance rates, it is not a  
substitute for insurance. Homeowners,  
property owners, and renters are therefore  
urged to maintain adequate insurance  
coverage of life and property.  
Alarm warning devices such as sirens,  
bells, or horns may not alert someone behind  
a closed or partially-opened door. Warning  
devices located on one level are less likely to  
alert those on a different level. Even those  
who are awake may not hear the warning if  
the alarm is obscured by noise from a stereo,  
Telephone lines needed to transmit  
alarm signals to a central monitoring station  
may be out of service.  
Smoke detectors, though highly effective  
in reducing fire deaths, may not activate or  
provide early-enough warning for a variety of

Abort Delay. Ask your installer which  
of your zones have Abort Delay, a  
delay that enables you to reset the  
system before it communicates to  
the central station. Your system  
has a SIA CP-01 required Abort  
Delay of 30 seconds. It may be re-  
moved or increased up to 45 sec-  
onds (at your option) by consulting  
with your installer.  
Regular Burglary (Non-24-Hour) Zone  
reports are aborted by disarming  
within the delay period. 24-Hour  
Zones and zones programmed to

ADVANCED FEATURES  
Security Bypass/Unbypass  
(Security Bypass programmed? YES NO).  
In high-security applications, zones may be bypassed (or unbypassed) only if a valid code is entered first, as follows:  
1. Enter a User Code valid for bypass, then press B .  
2. Press B then the zone number (or vice versa) to deactivate that zone.  
Similarly, a bypassed zone may be unbypassed using the same procedure.  
(This feature available for GEM-P3200/9600 panels only).  
Start Exit Time After Ringback (for Commercial Burglary Systems only)  
(Optional - Start Exit Time programmed? YES NO).  
If your system reports to a central station, your panel may have been programmed to start exit delay after the central-station  
ringback (verification) signal. Then, after arming, your system will communicate to the central station. After the central station  
acknowledges receipt (ringback), exit delay will start. If ringback is not heard within about 30 seconds, a communication  
problem may exist; call for service. Function 11 (Start Exit Time) may then be used to manually start the exit delay, however  
reporting capability may be sacrificed. (If your system does not report or the ringback feature was not programmed, exit delay  
will start as soon as your code is entered. Also note that if an exception window is programmed, and the closing is within that  
window, no ringback is provided. Ask your alarm professional if this feature is enabled.) (This feature available for GEM-  
P3200/9600 panels only).  
Exit-Delay Restart  
(Exit-Delay Restart programmed? YES NO).  
On arming, the programmed exit delay will start. After the exit/entry door has been opened and then closed, exit delay will re-  
start if the door is opened again. The Exit-Delay Restart feature will occur one time only in any arming period. (This feature  
available for GEM-P3200/9600 panels only).
