The village and communications center shall take every reasonable precaution to assure that alarm signals and prerecorded alarm messages received by the communications center or village are given appropriate attention and are acted upon with dispatch. Nevertheless, the village and the communications center shall not be liable for any defects in operation of automatic protection devices and signal line systems, for any failure or neglect to respond appropriately upon receipt of an alarm from such a source nor for the failure or neglect of any person with a license issued pursuant to this chapter or with a franchise, in connection with the installation and operation of equipment, the transmission of alarm signals and prerecorded alarm messages, or the relaying of such signals and messages. In the event that the village or communications center finds it necessary to disconnect a defective automatic protection device or signaling device, then neither the village nor the communications center shall incur liability by such action.
