Daily: The control panel must indicate normal functioning. Any faults must be noted down
in the register and the maintenance company called. Check that any previously registered
faults have been fixed.

As a minimum, a manual call point or detector must be activated to test the
control panel and the alarm devices connected to it. It is recommended to test a different
zone every month. Any malfunction should be written down in the register, taking
corrective measures as soon as possible.
Batteries: The batteries must be replaced periodically as recommended by the
manufacturer. The useful life of the battery is 4 years. Avoid the total discharge of the
batteries.
