AVOIDING FALSE ALARMS
False alarms are inconvenient and may be costly. Police can withhold response from consistent
offenders.
Here are nine points to help avoid false alarms.
1. Be sure you fully understand how to operate the alarm system. In your absence someone
thoroughly instructed, should be available to operate the system.
2. Before leaving the premises ensure that all doors and windows are securely closed.
3. Where passive infra red or movement detectors are installed make sure the areas are kept
free from all animals or birds. Particular attention should be paid to swinging signs,
fluorescent lights, Christmas decorations, electric fans, heating or ventilating systems.
These should be switched off if possible
4. Always follow the exit/entry route procedure agreed with your alarm installer.
5. Treat the alarm components with care to ensure they are not damaged.
6. Consult your alarm installer about changes to your building and its contents if you think
they may affect the alarm system or its performance.
7. Always report alarm activation to your alarm installer. If necessary, an engineer will be
sent to check the system.
8. If opening or closing times are monitored by a central station be sure you notify them of
any variations from the agreed times or password.
9. The system should be fitted with a stand-by battery (not included) which will operate the
system for a limited period in the event of a mains failure. Please ensure that the mains is
restored as quickly as possible so that the stand-by battery can be recharged.
