Silencing Low
Battery Warning
Tones at the
Console
Routine Care
In addition, a battery-operated smoke detector with a low battery also emits a
single “chirp”sound once approximately every 20-30 seconds, identifying itself as
the smoke detector with the weak battery. If you do not replace a smoke
detector’s low battery, the smoke detector may sound continuously, as if there
were a fire alarm.
lVote; The low battery message comes on as a warning that battery
replacement in indicated sensor(s) is due within 30 days. In the meantime, the
sensor(s) causing the low battery indication is stillfully operational.
Important: Use only batteries recommended by your installer as replacement.
The console’s warning tones can be silenced by performing an OFF sequence
(security code plus OFF key), but the Console’s low battery message display
will remain on as a reminder that you have a low battery condition in one or more
of your sensors. When you replace the weak battery with a fresh one, the sensor
will send a “good battery” signal to the control as soon as the sensor is activated
(opening/closing of a protected door, window, etc.), causing the low battery
display to turn off. If the sensor is not activated, the display will automatically
clear within approximately 1 hour.

Treat the components of your security system as you would any other electrical
equipment. Do not slam sensor-protected doors or windows.
Keep dust from accumulating on the console and all protective sensors,
particularly on motion sensors and smoke detectors.
The console and sensors should be cleaned carefully with a dry soft cloth. Do
not spray wateror any other fluid on the units.
