AT&T RIM BlackBerry 8300 - Manual (Page 25)

Testing and Maintenance
Your AT&T Security System 8300 requires very
little maintenance. All you will normally need to do
is keep the components clean and replace any
batteries that run low. Many dealers offer annual
maintenance checks, and they will replace any
batteries that are running low. If you need to
change a battery yourself, follow the directions
below to put your system in the Test mode and
then turn to the Optional Components section for
that component for further directions.
To clean your components:
Wipe the outside of system devices every six
months (more often in dusty or dirty areas). Use a
cloth that has been slightly moistened in a solution
of mild detergent. You can also use a vacuum to
remove dust, but do not use a vacuum on smoke
detectors. Do not disconnect components,
submerge them in liquid, or use any cleaning
sprays on them.

When your display shows NOTHING IN LIST,

Keypad beeps.
NOTE: Some sensors are grouped into zones.
You must activate every sensor in a zone to
verify all sensors. Your dealer should inform
you of any zone configurations in your system.
