Weekly tests
Every week during normal working hours the fire detection and alarm system should be tested. It is important to
inform the alarm receiving centre of the fire test.
The weekly fire test can be carried out at a manual call point without breaking the call point glass.
¨
Insert the test key into the keyhole located on the bottom-centre front face of the call point and
turn the key one quarter of a turn clockwise.
¨
Where an older manual call point is to be tested, insert a test key into the hole located on the
underside of the call point and push the key into the call point to operate the cam mechanism.
This will activate the call point.
At this point the test key is retained in the call point.
¨
Check the alarms are sounding in the building and an indication is given of the fire event.
¨
Turn the key anticlockwise one quarter of a turn and remove it from the call point. For an older
manual call point remove the test key from the call point.
¨
You will need to open the panel door to silence the alarms and reset the system.
