MAINTENANCE
Your alarm system requires very little maintenance.
However, a few simple tasks will ensure its continued
reliability and operation.
IMPORTANT: If, for any reason you have to
completely power-down the system (e.g. to move
the system to new premises), rst put the system
into Service Mode before removing the Siren cover
and disconnecting the main rechargeable and initial
power-up batteries. Ensure that the solar panel
is covered with a lightproof material to prevent it
being energised, otherwise the solar panel may still
power the siren.
SOLAR SIREN
1. It is recommended that the Solar Panel on the top
of the siren housing should be cleaned at least twice
a year, preferably in the Spring and Autumn, using a
soft damp cloth. Do not use abrasive, solvent based
or aerosol cleaners. Do not attempt to clean inside the
unit or allow water to enter the unit.
This will ensure that the Solar Panel does not become
affected by the build up of excessive dirt and receives
all the available light.
2. The Siren should not be left for long periods with
the batteries connected, unless the unit is able to
receive sufcient light to maintain the battery charge.
Failure to maintain charge to the unit will result in the
rechargeable battery running unacceptably low. Should
this occur, the unit must be recharged from a 7.5Vdc/
100mA supply (e.g. from a mains adaptor power
supply). When re-powering the Siren t a new 9V PP3
leak proof Alkaline power-up battery to ensure that the
Siren receives sufcient power until the solar panel can
recharge the main battery.
3. The main rechargeable battery has a typical life of 3
- 4 years and needs no maintenance during this period,
provided the battery is kept charged. The battery will
be damaged if it is stored in a discharged state for long
periods.
IMPORTANT: Before removing the Siren from
the wall ensure that the Siren is rst switched
into Service Mode to prevent the Tamper switch
operating and triggering an alarm, (see page 19).
The Siren must be switched back into Operating
Mode, otherwise the system cannot be Armed.
DETECTORS, REMOTE CONTROL AND
KEYPAD
The detectors require very little maintenance. The
batteries should be replaced once a year or when a low
battery status is indicated.
BATTERIES
Note: Before removing the battery cover on any device
to replace the battery ensure that the Siren is switched
into Service Mode to avoid triggering an alarm.
The specications for replacement batteries are as
follows:
Remote Control:
1 x 3V CR2032 Lithium Cell (or equivalent)
Magnetic Contact Detector:
2 x 3V CR2032 Lithium Cells (or equivalent)
PIR Movement Detector:
1 x 9V PP3 Alkaline Battery
Keypad:
1 x 9V PP3 Alkaline Battery
Note: Rechargeable batteries should NOT be tted.
DISPOSAL
At the end of their useful life the packaging, product
and batteries should be disposed of via a suitable
Recycling Centre.
Do not dispose of with your normal household waste.
DO NOT BURN.
The Rechargeable Batteries contain Sulphuric Acid
– DO NOT ATTEMPT TO OPEN THE CASING.
