An F-01 fire guard is required for any impairment to fire protection systems.
5. While conducting a fire watch, a fire guard notices a stairwell exit door is propped open with a door stopper. What is the correct action?
Stairwell doors must remain closed and latched to prevent smoke and fire from spreading between floors. A fire guard must immediately remove any obstruction keeping a fire door open, as these doors are a critical barrier in life-safety systems.

A trouble/supervisory signal indicates a fault in the system (such as a low battery or open circuit) that must be documented, reported, and investigated to ensure the system remains operational.
