The ventilation openings of the warning device must not be covered up.
Do not spray aerosol agents in the vicinity or onto the warning device.
Do not paint the warning device.
If the warning device is located in a room without a fuel-burning device, it must be located in the
vicinity of the breathing area of the persons residing in the room. In open-plan rooms where people both
sleep and spend their time, such as one-room flats, caravans or boats, the device must be located as
far away as possible from cookers while also being in the vicinity of the space reserved for sleeping.

Suggestions for the placement of additional CO alarms in the building
Installing the Device onto a Wall
(see Fig. 2)
1 – Openings for hanging onto a wall
Drill two holes (ø 5 mm) into the wall; the distance between the holes should be 52 mm.
Insert the wall plugs provided, then insert the screws provided into the wall plugs.
Insert the screws so that ca. 5 mm protrude out of the wall.
Put batteries into the alarm and test its functioning, see Test Mode.
If the alarm works, close the battery cover and fit the two openings on the battery cover onto the
protruding screws.
COMMISSIONING
(see Fig. 3)
Insert batteries (2× 1.5 V AA) into the battery compartment on the back. Use alkaline batteries only;
do not use rechargeable 1.2 V batteries (due to their lower voltage).
Warning:
The battery cover cannot be shut unless both batteries are in place! The closing of the battery
cover is prevented by two metal bumps underneath the battery compartment. If you wish to
mount the device onto a wall, batteries must always be inserted and the battery cover closed.
After inserting batteries, you will hear a beep and all three diodes (POWER, FAULT, ALARM) will flash
at the same time. The green POWER LED will flash 1× every 60 seconds after battery insertion; the
device is calibrating. After 60 seconds, the GREEN POWER LED will flash 1× every 40 seconds to
indicate that the batteries are working.
TEST MODE
You can test the functioning of the alarm whenever needed or after every change of batteries.
Press and hold the TEST/SILENCE button. The alarm will simultaneously beep and flash its RED
ALARM LED 4× every 5 seconds.
Release the TEST/SILENCE button; the alarm is ready for use.
