TESTING AND MAINTENANCE

Testing

Stand-alone units: Test each alarm regularly to be sure it is operating properly.

Interconnected units: Test each alarm in an interconnected system regularly.

The Smart Button accurately tests all functions. DO NOT use an open flame to test this CO alarm. You may ignite and damage the smoke alarm or your home.

Test alarms weekly and upon returning from vacation or when no one has been in the household for several days.

IMPORTANT! Refer to “Understanding the Alarm LEDs and Horn Patterns” chart so you understand how to tell if your alarm is operating properly.

Maintenance and Care

DANGER

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD. Turn off power at main service panel by removing fuse or switching appropriate circuit breaker to OFF position BEFORE cleaning CO alarm or replacing the battery.

Cleaning

IMPORTANT: Do not attempt to remove the cover or clean inside the alarm.

THIS WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY.

Clean the cover at least once a month using the soft brush or wand attachment to a vacuum cleaner. Be sure all the vents are free of debris. If necessary, use a damp cloth to clean residual dirt. Do not use abrasive cleansers or spray the alarm with cleaning agents or waxes, especially cleaners containing ammonia. These liquids may impair the performance of sensors. Do not submerge the alarm in water.

Replacing the Battery (Model COE and COE-B)

Replace the battery at least once a year or immediately when the low battery warning activates. If a replacement battery is not immediately available, push the Smart Button to silence the Low Battery Warning for approximately 10 hours. If alarm does not silence, replace the battery immediately.

WARNING
