CO Alarm Features cont.

This CO alarm is designed to detect carbon monoxide gas from 
any source of combustion. It is NOT designed to detect smoke, fire, or any
other type of gas. If this CO alarm sounds its alarm horn, DO NOT assume that
it is a false alarm. The alarm horn requires your immediate action. 

This product is intended for use in ordinary indoor locations of family living
units. It is not designed to measure compliance with Occupational Safety and
Health Administration (OSHA) commercial or industrial standards.

Where to Install Your CO Alarm

Carbon monoxide gas can be anywhere and everywhere. CO gas is equal to or
slightly lighter than air, and disperses evenly with the air in a room. Therefore,
install this CO alarm where air circulation is best. DO NOT mount the CO alarm
within 1 foot of the ceiling/wall or wall/wall intersection, or other dead air
spaces.

Since most CO fatalities occur while families are sleeping, we recommend that you
install at least one CO alarm in the hallway outside each separate sleeping area and
one inside each bedroom or sleeping area. 

We also recommend that you install a CO alarm on every separate living level of the
home where household members frequently spend time, as well as in the basement. 
See Figures 1, 2, and 3 for typical CO alarm locations within the home.

This alarm will only indicate the presence of carbon monoxide gas at the sensor.
Carbon monoxide gas may be present in other areas.

DO NOT install CO alarms:

• Near bathrooms or in shower areas.

Steam and aerosol sprays can 

disable the alarm.

• In closets, crawlspaces, unused attics, or unheated areas

where surrounding air temperatures may go below 40° F (4.4° C) or above 
100° F (37.8° C).

• Within five feet of any fuel-burning appliance

(stove, kerosene heater, fur-

nace, fireplace, etc.).

• Within one foot of any wall,

corner, or other dead air spaces.

• In rooms where chemicals or cleaning supplies are frequently used

(paint, hair spray, thinner, etc.). Allow plenty of ventilation in rooms where chemi-
cals are used.

• Directly above a sink, bathtub or basin.

• Directly above or below air exchange or heating vents.

• Behind drapes, furniture, or appliances that could block air flow to the

CO alarm.
