What To Do

In Case Of Fire

•Don’t panic; stay calm. Follow your escape plan. Your safe escape may depend on thinking clearly and remembering what you have prac- ticed.

•Get out of the dwelling as quickly as possible. Don’t stop to get dressed or collect anything.

•Feel doors with the back of your hand before opening them to see if they are hot. If a door is cool, open it slowly. Don’t open a hot door— use an alternate escape route.

•Cover your nose and mouth with a cloth (pref- erably wet). Take short, shallow breaths.

•Keep doors and windows closed, unless you need to escape through them.

•Meet at your planned meeting place outside your home, and do a head count to make sure everyone got out safely.

•Call the Fire Department as soon as possible from outside. Give your address, then your name.

•Never go back inside a burning building for any reason.

Contact your Fire Department for more ideas on making your home safer, and on creating your own family escape plan.

The M06-2016-007,4120B is primarily a smoke and carbon monoxide detector, ensuring comprehensive protection against two of the most prevalent household hazards.

Powering the device is a reliable battery backup that ensures continued operation even in power outages, making it a dependable choice for safety-conscious consumers. Furthermore, the device incorporates a low-battery alert feature to remind users when it's time to replace the batteries, enhancing ongoing reliability.

Moreover, the M06-2016-007,4120B boasts an easy installation process, allowing homeowners to set it up without the need for professional assistance. The compact design ensures it can fit seamlessly into various home environments without being intrusive.

In conclusion, the BRK electronic M06-2016-007,4120B is a highly effective smoke and carbon monoxide detector that combines advanced technology with practical safety features.
