USING THE PEAK CO MEMORY
The CO Memory Feature lets you check the highest level of CO recorded.
To check CO Memory:
1. Press the Display button until the peak CO level is displayed.
To clear CO Memory:
1. While checking CO memory, press or hold the Display
button until “CLEAR” is displayed.
2. Press or hold the Display button until the CO Memory is
cleared.
NOTE: The highest CO level will be saved, even after a power interruption,
until you clear it. DO NOT clear the CO Memory reading if you plan to call
someone to investigate a CO problem! Clear the CO Memory reading only
after the investigator has checked your home.
SILENCING THE LOW BATTERY WARNING
This Silence Feature can temporarily quiet the low battery warning “chirp” for
up to 8 hours if AC power is present. You can silence the low battery warning
“chirp” two ways:
1. Manually: Press the Test/Silence button on the Alarm cover until you see
the Green LED flicker, acknowledging the button-press.
2. Using Your Remote Control: Standing no further than 12 feet (3.6 meters)
away from the Gas/CO Alarm, aim your IR remote at the Alarm and press
the CHANNEL or VOLUME button for at least 3-5 seconds.
The display will flash “SILENCE” for 8 hours while the low battery warning
“chirp” silence feature is activated. After 8 hours, the low battery “chirp” will
resume. The Alarm will continue to operate as long as AC power is supplied.
However, replace the battery as soon as possible, to maintain protection in
event of a power outage.
