In addition to PUSH IN and PULL <br />DOWN text, there are arrows indicating how to operate the sta- <br />tion, provided for non -English-speaking people. <br />Pushing in and then pulling down on the handle activates the <br />normally -open alarm switch. Once latched in the down position, <br />the word "ACTIVATED" appears at the top in bright yellow, with a <br />portion of the handle protruding at the bottom as a visible flag. <br />Resetting the station is simple: insert the key, twist one quarter - <br />turn, then open the station's front cover, causing the spring - <br />loaded operation handle to return to its original position. The <br />alarm switch can then be reset to its normal (non -alarm) position <br />manually (by hand) or by closing the station's front cover, which <br />automatically resets the switch. <br />DF-52004:A1 •04/22/08 — Page 1 of 2 <br />
