a 3/16” hole in the wall and use |
| |
the plastic anchors provided.) |

The alarm is now activated!
Your CO alarm may also be placed on a tabletop. If alarm is not wall mounted, then be sure the alarm is no more than three feet from the floor to minimize the risk of causing permanent damage to the alarm in the event that it is knocked to the ground by accident.
The alarm is activated once the mounting bracket/back cover is installed! Once activated, removing the mounting bracket/back cover will not turn it off. The unit will remain on for the next ten years.
