If your bedroom hallway is longer than 40 feet (12 meters), install a CO Alarm at BOTH ends of the hallway. GARAGE SUGGESTED AREAS FOR INSTALLING ADDITIONAL CO ALARMS BEDROOMBEDROOM HALLLIVING ROOM KITCHEN BASEMENT BEDROOM REQUIRED TO MEET NFPA RECOMMENDATIONS In a Single-level Home: • Install at least one CO Alarm near or within each separate sleeping area. • For added protection, install an additional CO Alarm at least 20 feet (6 meters) away from the furnace or fuel burning heat source. In a Multi-level Home: • Install at least one CO Alarm near or within each separate sleeping area. • For added protection, install at least one CO Alarm on each level of the home. If you have a basement, install that CO Alarm at the top of the basement stairs. • For added protection, install an additional CO Alarm at least 20 feet (6 meters) away from the furnace or fuel burning heat source. WHERE CO ALARMS SHOULD NOT BE INSTALLED DO NOT LOCATE THIS CO ALARM: • In garages, kitchens, furnace rooms, or in any extremely dusty, dirty or greasy areas. • Closer than 15 feet (4.6 meters) from a furnace or other fuel burning heat source, or fuel burning appliances like a water heater. • Within 5 feet (1.5 meters) of any cooking appliance. • In extremely humid areas. This Alarm should be at least 10 feet (3 meters) from a bath or shower, sauna, humidifier, vaporizer, dishwasher, laundry room, utility room or other source of high humidity. • In areas where temperature is colder than 40° F (4° C) or hotter than 100° F (38° C). These areas include non-airconditioned crawl spaces, unfinished attics, uninsulated or poorly insulated ceilings, porches, and garages. • In turbulent air, like near ceiling fans, heat vents, air conditioners, fresh air returns, or open windows. Blowing air may prevent CO from reaching the sensors. • In direct sunlight. • In outlets covered by curtains or other obstruction. HOW TO INSTALL YOUR CO ALARM 1. Plug the unit into a standard UNSWITCHED 120V AC outlet. The unit should be located where it can wake you if it alarms at night. 2. Make sure the POWER/ALARM light shines continuously when you plug it in. The horn may “chirp” during power up, or when power is restored after an outage. 3. Test by pressing the Test/Silence button firmly until the unit sounds: four loud beeps, pause, 4 beeps. During testing, the POWER/ALARM light will flash rapidly. This is normal. PREPARE YOUR ALARM LABELS Find the pair of self-adhesive labels included with this CO Alarm. • On each label write in the phone number of your emergency responder (like 911) and a qualified appliance technician. • Place one label near the CO Alarm, and the other label in the “fresh air” location you plan to go if the alarm sounds. NOTE: A qualified appliance technician is defined as “a person, firm, corporation, or company that either in person or through a representative, is engaged in and responsible for the installation, testing, servicing, or replacement of heating, ventilation, air conditioning (HVAC) equipment, combustion appliances and equipment, and/or gas fireplaces or other decorative combustion equipment.” ’ 2 USING THE SILENCE FEATURE The Silence Feature is intended to temporarily silence your CO Alarm’s alarm horn while you correct the problem—it will not correct a CO problem. While the Alarm is silenced, it will continue to monitor the air for CO. When CO reaches alarm levels, the Alarm will sound— repeating horn pattern: 4 beeps, a pause, 4 beeps, etc. Press and hold the Test/Silence button until the horn is silent. The Silence cycle will last approximately 4 minutes. NOTE: After 4-minute Silence cycle, the CO Alarm re-evaluates present CO levels and responds accordingly. If CO levels remain potentially dangerous— or start rising higher—the horn will start sounding again. The Silence Feature is for your convenience only and will not correct a CO problem. Always check your home for a potential problem after any alarm. Failure to do so can result in injury or death. NEVER unplug your CO Alarm to silence the horn. Use the silence feature. Unplugging the CO Alarm removes your protection! TESTING AND MAINTENANCE WEEKLY TESTING Press the Test/Silence button on the Alarm cover until alarm sounds. During testing, you will hear a loud alarm sequence – 4 beeps, pause, 4 beeps, pause. • If the Alarm ever fails to test properly, replace it immediately. Products under warranty may be returned to the manufacturer for replacement. See “Limited Warranty” at the end of this manual. • DO NOT stand close to the Alarm when the horn is sounding. Exposure at close range may be harmful to your hearing. When testing, step away when horn starts sounding. • NEVER use vehicle exhaust! Exhaust may cause permanent damage and voids your warranty. REGULAR MAINTENANCE To keep the CO Alarm working properly: • Test it every week as described in “Weekly Testing.” • Vacuum the CO Alarm cover at least once a month, using the soft brush attachment. Never use water, cleaners...
