4.2 How to Tamperproof the Alarm
Figure 5
The Alarm can be made resistant to unauthorized removal. Break off the small pillar
on the base as shown in Figure 6a. To remove the Alarm once installed, it is now
necessary to use a small screwdriver, to release the catch (push catch towards the
ceiling) and then twist off the Alarm (see Figure 6b).
If necessary it is possible to further secure or tamperproof the Alarm by using a No.2 or
No.4 3/32” to 7/64” (2 to 3mm) diameter - not supplied self-tapping screw 1/4” to 5/16”
(6 to 8mm) long to firmly lock the Alarm and its mounting plate together (see Figure 7).
