Fire and Emergency Protection
Smoke and Carbon Monoxide (CO) detectors may be installed to protect the occupants of the dwelling from harmful, and possibly deadly e󰀨ects of smoke, heat,
and re-related dangers. The system’s re and emergency protection features are always protecting the premises. See Warnings, page 34.
NOTE: A professional installer must ensure that all Smoke/Heat alarms and CO detectors are installed in compliance with all national, regional,
and local laws, statutes, and guidelines.
In the Event of a Fire Alarm
In the event an installed re protection zone detects an issue, the following will occur:
1. The alarm siren immediately sounds and continues to sound until a User Code is entered or for the amount of time specied by the Fire Bell Cuto Time
setting. The factory default setting is four (4) minutes. Consult your installer to determine the cuto󰀨 time that has been congured for your system.
2. After the report is received by the Central Station, an operator will respond per the terms dened in your individual Service Agreement with your 2GIG
alarm dealer. For more in-depth information about specic alarm protocols, contact your alarm dealer.
If a re alarm is activated, the system emits a warning siren and immediately reports a re to the Central Station. To protect yourself and occupants do the
following:
1. If ames or smoke are present, yell “Fire!” to alert all occupants of a re.
2. Immediately evacuate all occupants from the premises and remain at a safe distance away from the premises.
DANGER: To protect yourself and others from serious injury and/or death, do NOT reenter the premises until it has been deemed safe
by emergency o󰀩cials.
3. Dial 9-1-1 (or your region’s emergency services number) to report the situation to authorities. Always wait to call from a safe location.
NOTE: It is important to establish and practice an Escape Plan with all members of your household in the event of a re. For more in-
depth information, see the Edge User Guide.
