Checking Placement of Sensors
If one or more sensors is not working consistently or cor-
rectly, or if you are receiving frequent false alarms, you
may need to check the placement of the sensors to make
sure they are oriented correctly for best performance.
• Separate door sensors from metallic door or window frames
with spacers (1/2” or more)
• Door sensors and magnets should be no farther apart than
1/2” when the door or window is closed.
• Motion detectors should not be placed where they can detect
motion from outdoors.
• Smoke alarms should be placed on or near the ceiling.
• Gas leak detectors should be placed on or near the floor.
e batteries in the wireless accessories will typically last
8-12 months, depending on usage. We recommend regular-
ly testing your system every 1-2 months. If an accessory is
beginning to fail, replace the battery and test it again.
