1.4 Safety precautions and warnings
It is important to bear the following warnings in mind to avoid possible mishaps or
accidents.
• The fire panel is quite heavy once the batteries are installed. Use resistant fastening
elements.
• The system must be installed as far away from other cables as possible to minimize
the risk of external interference. The use of stranded, shielded cable is
recommended.
• Cable with a minimum section of 1.5 mm² and 250 VAC cable is recommended. The
cable length must not be longer than 2 km.
• The fire panel must be connected to an external bipolar magneto-thermal switch.
• Do not work on any connections without first disconnecting the external magneto-
thermal switch. Do not use the mains fuse to cut the power supply.
