2.13 Disconnecting the Model 1108 for Storage or
Seasonal Use.
If you plan to employ the Model 1108 as a seasonal “watch-
dog” for a few months during the year, you m ust disconnect
all wires fr om the unit completel
y to a void dama ge to the
circuitr y when the unit is not in use
. If the unit is unplugged
but left in place with all the sensors still connected, the wires
act as antennae that draw in any stray “electrical noise” from
such devices as fans, blowers, microwaves, etc.
Additionally, it is important to remove the batteries, or they
will discharge until they fail.
Preserve your Model 1108 during the off-season, or
when not in use:
• Remove the sensor wires at the screw terminals
• Remove the batteries
• Unplug the unit and store in a safe place
