Actions to Take when Alarm Sounding
In case of harmful levels of CO gas being detected, your detector will go into a continuous full
alarm. Try to take the following necessary actions immediately:
•
If there is anyone experiencing the effects of carbon monoxide poisoning such as
headache, dizziness, nausea or other flu-like symptoms, call your fire department or
emergency service department right away. You should evacuate all the people in the
premises immediately. Do a head count to check that everybody is present.
•
Do not re-enter the premises until the problem has been corrected and the CO gas has
been dispersed out and a safe level is reached.
•
If no symptoms exist, immediately ventilate the home by opening windows and
doors. Turn off fuel burning appliances and call a qualified technician or your utility
company to inspect and repair your problem before restarting appliances.
Normally an activation of the detector indicates the presence of CO gas. However, the CO
gas can be extremely fatal, if it is not detected. The source of the CO gas may come from
several possible situations. This detector will only indicate the presence of CO gas at the
detector. However, you have to be aware that the CO gas may be present in other areas in
the premises.
Actions to Take after the Problem is Corrected
Once the problem of the CO gas presence in the premises has been corrected, the detector alarm
should be off. After waiting for 10 minutes, push the Test button to test the detector, and by that,
being confident that the detector is working properly again.
Technical Information
The Carbon Monoxide Detector is engineered to be able to provide alarm sounds based on the UL
standards due to various exposure times at different level of carbon monoxide concentrations.
According to the Underwriters Laboratories Inc. the carbon monoxide concentrations and exposure
time standards for the alarms have been established and specified below:
A full alarm is activated under the following conditions:
•
Between 60 and 90 minutes at exposures of 70 ppm
•
Between 10 and 30 minutes at exposures of 150 ppm
•
Between 4 and 10 minutes at exposures of 400 ppm
