DEACTIVATION
Your CO-9X is portable, making it ideal for
taking with you on holiday. You will need
to deactivate your detector when travelling
or even when storing e.g. when decorating.
Fitting is the reverse of removal. To deactivate
the detector the two ends of the metal clip
must be inserted into the corresponding
holes in the disabling socket located on the
underside of the detector (see image). You
can ensure that the product is disabled by
pressing the test button - if there is no sound
from the sounder then the clip has been
fitted correctly.
NOTE: If the disabling tab is no longer
available then the clip can be replicated
by opening out a thin metal paper clip into
a U-shape.
The clip must
remain in the
disabling socket
to keep the power
pack deactivated.
OPERATING FEATURES
Your FireAngel detector offers many features
which set it apart from other CO detectors on
the market today.
Test/Reset button feature
This button will:
• Test the sounder, power pack and circuitry
• Allows you to test the sensor by
introducing a source of CO into the
detector (see ‘Testing The Sensor’ below).
• Silence the loud 85dB (at 1 metre (3 feet))
sounder during an alarm (only for alarms
due to levels of CO of less than 50ppm).
Testing the sounder, power pack and
circuitry
Test the sounder, power pack and circuitry by
pressing and releasing the Test/Reset button
to confirm that the detector is operating
properly. The sounder should sound as soon
as the button is pressed, and the Alarm
LED will illuminate red indicating that the
sounder is working and the power pack is
providing power to the unit. This test for the
sounder, power pack and circuitry should be
performed on a weekly basis.
Testing the sensor
NOTE: We suggest the use of an incense
stick as the inefficient way in which this
product burns means the smoke given off
contains a detectable localised amount of
carbon monoxide. Alternative sources of
