Power Outage Setting The Power Outage setting determines how many hours the Telephone Access Module waits before activating a dial-out alert when power is disconnected or a power outage occurs. CAUTION Dead or Missing Battery Hazard. Can prevent Telephone Access Module from dialing power outage alert. Check battery annually or before leaving for extended absence. Replace battery immediately when battery indicator is on or flashing. The factory default setting is 1 hour. The options are 1, 2, 3, or 4 hours. The Telephone Access Module activates an alert when the continuous power outage is equal to or longer than the Power Outage Setting. CAUTION Property Loss Hazard. Prepare to act promptly; time may be critical. Do not assume your designate received and acted on the active alert. CAUTION Property Loss Hazard. Do not rely only on the Telephone Access Module to identify potential problems in your home. Have someone periodically check your home while you are away. If a power outage is equal to or longer than your Power Outage Setting and your dial-out alert is active, the Telephone Access Module dials out and when you answer the phone, you will hear, "Hello, this is a Honeywell alert message from (your ID). A Power Outage Alert was observed." 69-1353 22
