Listed below are five easy steps for setting up your Kidde CO alarm. Please read the entire guide for complete information.

Setting up your CO alarm for first time operation:

Step 1

Determine the best location for your CO alarm(s). Usually this is in or near bedrooms. Refer to Part One, Where to Install Your CO Alarm for complete information.

Step 2

For model KN-COB-LCB-A remove the yellow pull-tab or install the battery shipped with your unit

Plug the CO alarm into a standard, unswitched 120 volt AC elec- tric outlet.

Step 3

The green Operate light will come on and stay on showing the CO alarm is receiving power.

Step 4

Next, test the alarm’s operation by pressing and releasing the Test/Reset button. The unit will beep quickly 4 times – followed by 5 seconds of silence – followed by 4 quick beeps. This is also the alarm cycle in the event of a CO problem. Familiarize your- self and household members with this alarm pattern. The red alarm light will come on when the alarm sounds.

Step 5

While testing the CO alarm, have someone else check that the alarm can be heard easily from the sleeping areas. The CO alarm should be located where it can wake you if it alarms at night.

Your Kidde CO alarm is now monitoring for the presence of car- bon monoxide.
