System Testing
You can test the components of the system—the sirens, the telephone hookup and the sensors—without causing a
false alarm. This section describes how you can be sure that the system is functioning properly.
Important Notice: Test Monthly
Your Residential Services Contract (or Small Business
Contract) requires you to conduct these tests at least
once a month. Weekly testing is recommended.
