NEVER IGNORE THE ALARM.

NEVER IGNORE THE ALARM.

Pre-Alarm:When the alarm detects over 50ppm CO the red light flashes every 2 seconds. This helps locate CO leaks as the unit gives an indication straight away. (Without this feature the CO level would need to be at 50ppm CO for 90 minutes for an indication to be given). Note the Pre-Alarm signal may be triggered by CO coming for example, from cooking with gas, from car engines or from nearby barbecues. This is usually not a concern, unless the Pre-Alarm signal persists until the alarm sounds and the CO source is unknown.

NOTE: The CO Alarm may sound if cigarette smoke is blown into it, or aerosols are released nearby.

CO ALARM MEMORY (Ei205EN, Ei205ENA & Ei205CEN only)

-Red light is Off – No CO detected since reset or power up.

-Red light flashes 2 times (in 2 seconds) every 40 seconds, 50 ppm CO detected for at least about 90 minutes.

-Red light flashes 4 times (in 2 seconds) every 40 seconds, 100 ppm CO detected for at least about 40 minutes.

-Red light flashes 8 times (in 2 seconds) every 40 seconds, 300 ppm CO detected for at least about 3 minutes.

When the test button is pressed the horn will sound, and the red light will only flash if the unit has previously detected CO and been in alarm. The flash rate indicates the level of CO as in Table B.

LIMITATIONS OF CO ALARMS End of LifeProduct Disposal 2 Carbon Monoxide must enter the unit for it to be detected. There may be Carbon Monoxide in other areas of the house e.g. downstairs, in a closed room etc. but not in the vicinity of the CO Alarm. Doors, air draughts and obstructions can prevent the CO reaching the Alarm. For these reasons we recommend. CO Alarms are fitted both near and in bedrooms, particularly if bedroom doors are closed at night. Additionally install in rooms where members of the household spend much of their time, and in rooms with potential sources of CO gas 9.
