WARNING: IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR THE USER
Individuals with medical problems may consider using warning devices which
provide audible and visual signals for carbon monoxide concentrations under 30
ppm.
WARNING
Actuation of your CO alarm indicates the presence of carbon monoxide (CO)
which can KILL YOU.
If alarm signal sounds:
1. Operate reset/silence button.
2. Call your emergency services (fire department or 911).
3. 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 reenter 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.
4. After following steps 1 - 3, if your alarm reactivates within a 24 hour
period, repeat steps 1 - 3 and call a qualified appliance technician (Telephone
Number) to investigate for sources of CO from fuel burning equipment and
appliances, and inspect for proper operation of this equipment. If problems
are identified during this inspection have the equipment serviced
immediately. Note any combustion equipment not inspected by the
technician and consult the manufacturers' instructions, or contact the
manufacturers directly, for more information about CO safety and this
equipment. Make sure that motor vehicles are not, and have not been,
operating in an attached garage or adjacent to the residence.
The premises should be well ventilated when household cleaning supplies or
similar contaminants are used.
DETECTOR REPLACEMENT
This detector is manufactured with a long-life carbon monoxide sensor. Over time
the sensor may lose sensitivity and may need to be replaced with a new carbon
monoxide detector. The
detector’s lifespan is
10 years from the date of
manufacture.
NOTE:
When the detector is removed from its base, a tamper message is sent to the
central station.
The detector will also cause a trouble condition once it has reached the end of its
useful life. If this occurs, it is time to replace the detector.
NOTE:
Before replacing the detector, notify the proper authorities that
maintenance is being performed and the system will be temporarily out of service.
Disable the zone or system undergoing maintenance to prevent any unwanted
alarms. Dispose of the detector in accordance with any local regulations.
NOTE:
The replacement date that appears on the device is the date beyond which
the device may no longer detect carbon monoxide accurately and should be
immediately replaced.
CAUTION
It should be noted the installation, operation, testing and maintenance of a carbon
monoxide detector is different to smoke detectors. Per NFPA 720 section 5.3.7.2 a
CO detector shall not be connected to a zone that signals a fire condition (i.e. smoke
detectors zones). Therefore, the carbon monoxide alarm signal must be
programmed as a non-fire zone.
See the control’s
installation instructions for the
appropriate carbon monoxide zone type to be programmed.
