WHAT I SHOULD KNOW
If your unit is in CO critical concentration level ALARM, keep calm and carry out the following
actions in the priority order:
• Open all windows and doors to increase the rate of ventilation
• Turn off the fuel-burning appliances where possible
• Evacuate the building leaving the windows and doors open and re-enter the property only when
the alarm has stopped
• Get immediate medical assistance for anyone suffering the effects of carbon monoxide poisoning
(nausea, headache), and report that carbon monoxide inhalation is suspected
• Contact the gas or other fuel supplier on their emergency phone number in order to identify and
eliminate the source of carbon monoxide emissions
• Do not use the fuel-burning appliance again until it has been verified and confirmed by a
competent person according to national regulations
CARBON MONOXIDE (CO) POISONING
There could be other sources of carbon monoxide emissions. For example large amount of
city gas, tobacco smoke or smoldering fire can cause CO concentration ALARM.

ppm - Parts Per Million - is used to describe concentrations of contaminants in air.
Carbon monoxide is a product of incomplete combustion of organic matter. It is a toxic gas, but being
colorless, odorless, tasteless, and initially non-irritating, it is very difficult for people to detect.
Clean the outside case of device occasionally with a clean tissue to ensure that the holes of
the unit are not blocked with dirt or dust.
Some household substances can affect the sensitivity of the detectors in a short or long term.
Avoid the use of model paint, model glue or nail polish remover close to the alarm. Do not use
aerosol sprays, household cleaners, polishes or perfumes close to the device.
