Operating Instructions

immediately, the unit will verbally announce “HUSH MODE
ACTIVATED”, and the green LED will flash every 2 seconds for
approximately 10 minutes. This indicates that the smoke alarm
is in a temporarily desensitized condition. Your Smoke/CO Alarm
will automatically reset after approximately 10 minutes. When
the unit returns to normal operation after being in HUSH mode,
it will verbally announce “HUSH MODE CANCELLED”, and sound
the alarm if smoke is still present. The HUSH feature can be used
repeatedly until the air has been cleared of the condition causing
the alarm. While the unit is in HUSH mode, pushing the test/reset
button on the alarm will also end the HUSH period.
NOTE: DENSE SMOKE WILL OVERRIDE THE HUSH CONTROL
FEATURE AND SOUND A CONTINUOUS ALARM.
CAUTION: BEFORE USING THE ALARM HUSH FEATURE,
IDENTIFY THE SOURCE OF THE SMOKE AND BE CERTAIN A
SAFE CONDITION EXISTS.
Reset Feature
If the the Smoke/CO Alarm is sounding a CO alarm, pressing the
test/reset button will silence the alarm.
If the CO condition that caused the alert continues, the alarm will
reactivate. Reactivation times depend on the amount of CO
present (see page 21).
Peak Level Memory
If the CO sensor has detected a CO level of 100 PPM or higher
since last reset, it will be recorded by the Peak Level Memory
function. To access the Peak Level Memory press the test/reset
button. If a reading of 100 PPM or higher has been recorded, the
unit will announce “Carbon Monoxide Previously Detected.” If
you’ve been away from home this feature allows you to check if
there was a CO reading of 100, or higher, during your absence.
Pushing the test/reset button resets the memory. It’s also reset
when the power is removed.
