SAFETY & SECURITY
Understanding the Product’s Indicators
The higher the concentration of carbon
monoxide detected by the detector, the
quicker it will respond. When sufficient
carbon monoxide is detected a loud audible
signal (85 dB at 1m (3 feet)) will be emitted
and the Alarm LED will flash red once every
second.
The Alarm will sound:
• Between 60 and 90 minutes when
exposed to a minimum of 50ppm of CO.
• Between 10 and 40 minutes when
exposed to a minimum of 100ppm of CO.
• Within 3 minutes when exposed to a
minimum of 300ppm of CO.
Fault/low power pack signal:
The unit continuously checks the settings of
its sensor and circuitry. If any of these
settings are found to be incorrect or if the
power pack becomes low then the detector
will emit a single chirp once per minute and
the Fault LED will flash yellow once per
minute for up to 30 days.
IMPORTANT: This does NOT mean that the
detector has detected carbon monoxide.
If the product is still within warranty then
contact technical support. If the product is no
longer in warranty replace immediately!
IMPORTANT: The selected power pack was
chosen to provide power beyond the lifetime
of the product, in particular the sensor (under
normal operating conditions). The sensor life
is seven years, for this reason, the detector
should be replaced after seven years from
the date of installation.

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
Step 4 Turn the detector on its side so that
the vents on the right hand side of
the detector are pointing downwards.
Hold the burning cigarette or incense
stick 15cm (6 inches) below the
detector, so that the smoke enters
the vents on the side of the detector.
An increase in the localised carbon
monoxide level with the sensor to
more than 50ppm will cause the
sounder to sound for one cycle of
four loud beeps and the Fault LED to
illuminate yellow for a short time.
This is the end of the test. The Fault
LED will no longer flash yellow and
the detector will go back to normal
operating mode ie. the Power LED
will flash green once every minute (It
may take up to two minutes of
exposure to the smoke for the
localised level of carbon monoxide
within the sensor to reach over
50ppm). Now move the source of CO
away from the detector as the test is
finished.
Step 5 After step 4, put out the incense stick
or cigarette by placing it into a dish of
water. Ensure that all flames have
been extinguished.
Note: If the localised carbon monoxide level
within the sensor does not reach 50ppm
during the test, the sensor test will stop
automatically after 3 minutes.
