SAFETY & SECURITY
suffering the effects of carbon monoxide
poisoning (headache, nausea), and
advise that carbon monoxide poisoning is
suspected.
• Do not use the appliance again until it
has been checked by an expert. In the
case of gas app`liances this must be a
GAS SAFE registered installer.
What to do during a low-level warning
• Open all doors and windows to ventilate.
• Turn off all appliances that are potential
sources of CO when possible, and stop
using the appliance. These may include
gas and wood-burning fireplaces, all gas
appliances, and barbecues.
• Silence the alarm by pressing the Test/
Reset button.
• Do not use the appliance again until it
has been checked by a qualified service
engineer. In the case of gas appliances
this must be a GAS SAFE registered
installer.
• Get medical help immediately for anyone
suffering the effects of carbon monoxide
poisoning (headache, nausea), and
advise that carbon monoxide poisoning is
suspected.
Battery installation/replacement
a. If the detector is wall mounted then
unhook it from the mounting screws.
b. Remove the battery cover located on the
back of the detector.
c. Replace the battery with an approved 9
volt alkaline battery, making sure the
battery terminals align properly with the
detector terminals and push the battery
into place. Use of a battery other than the
battery recommended by FireAngel Ltd
can have a detrimental effect on the
detector operation. Replace the battery
cover and return the detector to the
origiinal position.
d. When the battery is first inserted the
detector will shortly emit a single beep
and the LEDs will flash to indicate that
the battery is properly connected.
e. Your advanced FireAngel detector does
not require a proplonged ‘power-up’
period. If you have followed all of the
above steps correctly, your unit will begin
monitoring for CO in 20 minutes. After the
20 minute warm-up period, the High-
Level LED will flash once per minute to
indicate that the detector is powered up
and is monitoring for CO.
f. Test the horn, battery and circuitry by
pressing the Test/reset button to confirm
that the detector is operating properly.
The horn should sound as soon as the
button is pressed, and the LEDs will flash
indicating that the horn is working and
the battery is providing power to the unit.
This test for the horn, battery and
circuitry should be performed on a
weekly basis.
WARNING: Prolonged exposure to the
horn in close proximmity will damage
your hearing.
When there is no battery in place, a red
missing battery indicator will remind you to
replace the battery. Under normal operating
conditions, the battery should last one year.
The battery life in full alarm is 7 days. The
detector will not protect against the risk of CO
poisoning when the battery has drained.
Caution: Constant exposure to extreme high
or low temperatures amy reduce battery life.
Maintaining/Testing your detector
Maintenance
Your detector will alert you to potentially
hazardous CO concentrations in your home
when maintained properly. To maintain your
Fireangel detector in proper working order,
