Alarm Mute:
Press the
Test/Mute switch when the detector

1. The red LED will continue to flash and
the alarm will beep every 30 seconds
until the gas level has dropped to a safe
level.
2. The LED will flash green until the end
of the Mute cycle.
3. If dangerous gas levels return before
the end of the Mute cycle, the alarm
will beep four times and return to
phase 1.
4. After two minutes the detector will
return to normal operation (solid
green) or resound the alarm if
dangerous levels of gas remain in the
area.
Fault Alarm:
Should the microprocessor sense a fault in the
gas detector, a fault alarm will sound twice every
15 seconds. The LED will alternately flash red to
green and the MUTE switch will not respond to
any command. The gas detector must be repaired
or replaced.
Maintenance
1. Vacuum the dust off the detector
cover weekly (more frequently in
dusty locations) using the soft brush
attachment of a vacuum.
2.
DO NOT spray cleaning agents or
waxes directly onto the front panel.
This action may damage the sensor,
cause an alarm or cause a detector
malfunction.
