SLEEP EASY
Low battery warnings often start at night
or when it may be inconvenient to replace
your alarm. You can silence the audible
‘low battery’ chirp for a period of eight
hours by pressing the test button. After
this period the audible chirp will start
again. This process can be repeated for a
maximum of 10 times. Your alarm will still
detect CO during this time, however you
must replace your alarm within 30 days, as
it may have insufficient power to warn you
of a real CO leak after this time.
WHAT TO DO IN THE
EVENT OF AN ALARM
WARNING: A loud alarm is a warning
that potentially lethal levels of carbon
monoxide are present. Never ignore
this alarm, further exposure can be fatal.
Immediately check residents for symptoms
of carbon monoxide poisoning, and
contact the proper authorities to resolve
all CO problems. NEVER IGNORE ANY
ALARM.
Please carefully review this guide to
ensure that you know what actions to take
in the event of an alarm.
WHAT TO DO DURING AN ALARM:
• Keep calm and open the doors and
windows to ventilate the property.
• Stop using all fuel-burning appliances and
ensure, if possible, that they are turned off.
• Evacuate the property leaving the doors
and windows open.
• Ring your gas or other fuel supplier on their
emergency number; keep the number in a
prominent place.
• Do not re-enter the property until the alarm
has stopped. When exposed to fresh air it
can take up to 10 minutes for the sensor to
clear and the alarm to stop depending on
the level of carbon monoxide detected.
• Get medical help immediately for anyone
suffering the effects of carbon monoxide
poisoning (headache, nausea), and advise
that carbon monoxide poisoning is
suspected.
• Do not use the appliances again until they
have been checked by an expert. In the
case of gas appliances the engineer must
be registered on the Gas Safe register.
WARNING: Alarms conforming to this
standard may not protect people who
are at special risk from carbon monoxide
exposure by reason of age, pregnancy or
medical condition. If in doubt, consult your
doctor.
