General Information Continued
Features of the CMD5-RB, CMD5-RD, CMD5-RB-B & CMD5-RD-B
The CO Alarm is designed to meet applicable RV standards. The CO Alarm is tested by ETL to meet
UL 2034 RV requirements.
The CO Alarm conducts a self-diagnosis of critical components every 180 seconds. Should a major
component fail, the CO Alarm will enter a fault mode. Both audible and visual warning indicators
are activated.
The CO Alarm circuit board is sealed against moisture and corrosion to withstand the harshest
environments and ensure durability.
Features of the CMD5-RBI, CMD5-RDI, CMD5-RBI & CMD5-RDI
The CMD5-RBI, CMD5-RDI, CMD5-RBI & CMD5-RDI are designed to interconnect with other
CMD5-RBI, CMD5-RDI, CMD5-RBI & CMD5-RDI. If the unit senses CO at an alarm level, it will
communicate with other interconnected units and send them into alarm. The unit that senses CO
will have a distinct LED pattern compared to the interconnected units. The CMD5-RBI, CMD5-RDI,
CMD5-RBI & CMD5-RDI are designed to connect to a maximum of ten interconnected units.
Limitations
This carbon monoxide alarm is designed to detect carbon monoxide gas from ANY
source of combustion. It is NOT designed to detect smoke, fire or any other gas.
The CO Alarm will not detect carbon monoxide that is not in the vicinity of the alarm.
Carbon monoxide in other rooms or areas will not be detected. Alarms mounted near
obstructions or in ‘dead’ air spaces will not detect carbon monoxide.
The CO Alarm does not guarantee or imply that CO poisoning will not occur. Do NOT
use the CO Alarm as a replacement for ordinary precautions or periodic inspections of
equipment. NEVER rely on alarm systems to save your life, common sense is still
prudent and necessary.
The audible horn on the CO Alarm meets UL STD 2034 RV requirements; however, the
horn may not be heard in remote areas.
The nature of an alarm system is to produce an irritating and loud noise. The audible
signal of the CO Alarm may shock or startle persons near the alarm. Hearing damage
can occur if prolonged exposure to the audible alarm is allowed.
All electric devices have limited life spans and may fail without warning. Inspect the CO
Alarm on a periodic basis. Do NOT assume that the CO Alarm will prevent CO poisoning.
It is a supplement-warning device only.
