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 effects of
smoke, heat, and fi re-related dangers. The system’s fi re and emergency protection features are always protecting the premises.
See “Warnings” on page 25.
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 fi 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 specifi ed by the Fire Bell
Cutoff Time setting. The factory default setting is four (4) minutes. Consult your installer to determine the cutoff time that has been confi gured
for your system.
2. After the report is received by the Central Station, an operator will respond per the terms defi ned in your individual Service Agreement with your
2GIG alarm dealer. For more in-depth information about specifi c alarm protocols, contact your alarm dealer.
If a fi re alarm is activated, the system emits a warning siren and immediately reports a fi re to the Central Station. To protect yourself and occupants do
the following:
1. If fl ames or smoke are present, yell “Fire!” to alert all occupants of a fi 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 offi 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 fi re. For more in-
depth information, see the GC3 User Guide.
