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,
and to ensure that the sensor will last for the lifetime of the
product, it is recommended that you:
• Test the sounder, power pack and circuitry of your detector
at least once per week by pressing the Test/Reset button
briefly (see page 19-22)
• Perform the Sensor Test annually (see page 19-22)
• Keep the detector free of dust by gently vacuuming the
case with a soft brush attachment as required.

detector and thus affecting its reliability:

• Do not paint the detector
• Do not spray aerosols on or near the detector
• Do not use any solvent based products near the detector
