CO ALARM ACTIVATION
WARNING:
Carbon monoxide alarm
activation indicates the presence of Carbon
Monoxide (CO) at high concentrations which
can kill you.
1)
Immediately move to fresh air – outdoors or by an open
door/window. Do a head count to check that all persons are
accounted for. Do not re-enter the premises nor move away
from the open door/window until the emergency services
responders have arrived, the premises have been aired out,
and your alarm remains in its normal condition.
2)
Call your local emergency service.
(fire department or 911)
Never restart the source of a CO problem until it has
been corrected. Never ignore the sound of the alarm!
In an interconnected system, the initiating alarm Green
LED will flash every second. Pressing the Test/Hush
button on the initiating alarm unit will silence the
alarm notification, including all interconnected units.
Pressing the Test/Hush button on any unit other than the
initiating alarm unit does nothing. If the CO condition
that caused the alarm in the first place continues, the
initiating alarm unit will reactivate in alarm mode.
If the unit goes into alarm mode again within six
minutes, it is sensing high levels of CO which can quickly
become a dangerous situation.
