The CO Safety Shutoff (COSS) is designed to give visual and audible signals and shut your appliance down if carbon monoxide
(CO) reaches levels predetermined to be unhealthy or dangerous.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
WHAT SHOULD I DO IF YOU SMELL GAS?
•
Do not try to light any appliance.
•
Do not touch the electrical switch.
•
Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor’s phone.
Follow the supplier’s instructions.
•
If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department.
Please study this entire manual before installation, and keep it handy for future reference.
Please refer to your appliance owner’s manual for additional safety information.
A CO Safety Shutoff is not a substitute for other gas, fire or smoke alarms. This unit is designed to detect CO from any source
of combustion; however, it will indicate the presence of CO at the sensor location only. CO gas may be present in other areas of
the building undetectable by your unit. For better protection, install a CO detector as recommended by the Consumer Product
Safety Commission (CPSC).
