Alarm System Instructions
WHEN ENTERING THE BUILDING
When you entering, you will hear a quiet beeping. You have 60 seconds to enter your temporary, four digit code. The beeping will stop and then you are free to unlock the doors with the hex keyhanging on the nearby wood pillar.
WHEN LEAVING THE BUILDING
Check that everyone has left the building and finish closing procedures as follows:
- Secure all accesible exterior doors, including locking the front doors with the hex key.
- With the front door closed & locked, press either < or > key. If any message regarding a "zone open" appears, check the doors again. If the system reads "Enter four-digit code to arm system," do so. You now have 60 seconds to leave the building. Once the door closes behind you, check to ensure the door is locked & latched.
If you experience any trouble with the facility, call Darrin Nicholson 509-596-6429 or Tracy Kapelski 253-230-0297.
