CO Alarm Memory:

: A unit will indicate if it has been in alarm previously by flashing the red light

 

for 2 seconds every 40 seconds (2 flashes for 50 ppm CO, 4 flashes for 100

 

ppm CO and 8 flashes, for 300 ppm CO). When the Test/Hush button is

 

pressed, the red light flashes (as per Table B on page 8) to indicate the

 

previous CO alarm level detected. The memory is cleared by holding down

 

the Test/Hush button until the red light stops flashing.
