What to Do if the Alarm Sounds

!WARNING

Carbon Monoxide cannot be seen, felt, tasted, or smelled – but it can be

FATAL.

!WARNING

IF THE RED “ALARM” LED INDICATOR IS FLASHING AND THE ALARM IS SOUNDING APPROXIMATELY EVERY FIVE SECONDS, IT INDICATES THE PRESENCE OF CO WHICH CAN BE FATAL. YOU MUST QUICKLY DO THE FOLLOWING.

1.Operate reset/silence button.

2.Call your emergency services [fire department or 911].

3.Immediately move to fresh air — outdoors or by an open door/window. Do a head count to check that all persons are accounted for. Do not reenter the premises nor move away from the open door/window until the emergency services responders have arrived, the premises have been aired out, and your alarm remains in its nor- mal condition.

4.After following steps 1 - 3, if your alarm reactivates within a 24 hour period, repeat steps 1 - 3 and call a qualified appliance technician (_________________) to inves- tigate for sources of CO from fuel-burning equipment and appliances, and inspect for proper operation of this equipment. If problems are identified during this inspec- tion, have the equipment serviced immediately. Note any combustion equipment not inspected by the technicians and consult the manufacturers’ instructions, or contact the manufacturers directly, for more information about CO safety and this equipment. Make sure that motor vehicles are not, and have not been, operating in an attached garage or adjacent to the residence.

!WARNING

If the CO alarm sounds its alarm horn again, it has sensed CO. This is not a false alarm.

NOTE: Refer to the helpful CO Warning and Alarm Action Guide conveniently located on the back of your detector.

Maintenance and Cleaning

This CO alarm does not require any maintenance, except occasional dusting or cleaning. If necessary, occasionally vacuum the case of the CO alarm. To clean the CO alarm, unplug each CO alarm from its wall outlet and use a damp cloth to clean the OUTSIDE of CO alarm case. DO NOT remove cover or attempt to clean inside the CO alarm. Dry the cover completely and plug each CO alarm back into the wall outlet. Press in, hold, and release Test/Reset button on each CO alarm to test after cleaning.

!WARNING

Do not use abrasive cleansers, or spray the CO alarm with cleaning agents or waxes. Do not submerge the CO alarm in water.
