SILENCING THE LOW BATTERY
WARNING
•
IF the CO alarm is silent for only 4 minutes, then
starts sounding loudly - 4 beeps, pause, 4 beeps,
pause... THEN the CO levels are still potentially
dangerous.
•
IF the CO alarm remains silent after you pressed
the Test/Silence button... THEN the CO levels are
dropping.
This silence feature can temporarily quiet the End of Life
warning “chirp” for up to 2 days. You can silence the
End of Life warning “chirp” by pressing the Test/Silence
button. The horn will chirp, acknowledging that the End of
Life silence feature has been activated.
SILENCING THE END OF LIFE SIGNAL
•
After approximately 2 days, the End of Life “chirp”
will resume.
•
After approximately 2-3 weeks the End of Life
warning cannot be silenced.
The Silence Feature is intended to temporarily silence
your CO Alarm’s alarm horn while you correct the
problem—it will not correct a CO problem. While the alarm
is silenced it will continue to monitor the air for CO.
When CO reaches alarm levels the alarm will sound—
repeating horn pattern: 4 beeps, a pause, 4 beeps, etc.
Press and hold the Test/Silence button until the horn is
silent. The initial Silence cycle will last approximately 4
minutes.
NOTE: After initial 4-minute Silence cycle, the CO Alarm
re-evaluates present CO levels and responds accordingly.
If CO levels remain potentially dangerous —or start rising
higher—the horn will start sounding again.
Using The Silence Feature
WARNING
!
The Silence Feature is for your convenience only
and will not correct a CO problem. Always check
your home for a potential problem after any alarm.
Failure to do so can result in injury or death.
WARNING
!
NEVER remove the batteries from your CO Alarm
to silence the horn. Use the silence feature.
Removing the batteries removes your protection!
WHEN THE DETECTOR IS SILENCED:
WEEKLY TESTING
Testing and Maintenance
WARNING
!
Test the CO Alarm once a week. If the CO Alarm ever
fails to test correctly, have it replaced immediately! If
the CO Alarm is not working properly, it cannot alert
you to a problem.
WARNING
!
DO NOT try fixing the Alarm yourself - this will void
your warranty! Install a new CO Alarm immediately.
WARNING
!
Do NOT stand close to the Alarm when the horn is
sounding. Exposure at close range may be harmful
to your hearing. When testing, step away when horn
starts sounding.
WARNING
!
The Test/Silence button is the only proper way to
test the CO Alarm. NEVER use vehicle exhaust!
Exhaust may cause permanent damage and voids
your warranty.
Push and hold the Test/Silence button on the cover until
the LED flashes. The alarm horn will sound 4 beeps, a
pause, then 4 beeps. Th ALARM (RED) light will flash.
The alarm sequence should last 5-6 seconds. If it does
not alarm, make sure fresh batteries are correctly
installed, and test it again. If the unit still does not alarm,
replace it immediately.
IF THE ALARM DOES NOT TEST PROPERLY:
1. Make sure the battery is installed correctly.
2. Be sure the Alarm is clean and dust-free.
3. Install a fresh 9V battery and test the Alarm again.
