Mounting

This CO alarm can be either wall mounted 
or placed on a tabletop.

For wall mounting, follow these steps:

1. Using the mounting bracket, place it in the 

desired location and mark the location of 
the two holes needed on the wall. 

2. Insert the two screws provided until the 

screw heads are protruding approximately 
3,2mm (1/8”) from the wall. (If 
mounting in a plasterboard or 
drywall, drill a 4,8mm (3/16”) 
hole in the wall and use the 
plastic anchors provided.)

3. Hook the mounting bracket over 

the screws and onto the keyholes 
in the back mounting plate of the 
alarm.  After the mounting plate 
is secured to the wall, slide the 
alarm down over the mounting 
plate until it snaps into place.

The alarm is now activated!

Your CO alarm may also be placed on a tabletop. If alarm is not wall 
mounted, then be sure the alarm is no more than one metre from the 
floor to minimize the risk of causing permanent damage to the alarm in 
the event that it is knocked to the ground by accident.

The alarm is activated once the mounting bracket/back cover is installed!

Once activated, removing the mounting bracket/back cover will not turn 
it off. The unit will remain on for the next ten years.

Important Label Provided

A label has been provided that has important information on what to do 
in case of an alarm.  Add the phone number of the emergency service 
provider in the space provided.  Place the label near to the alarm where 
is can be seen in an emergency situation.
