5. Alarm Characteristics
Carbon Monoxide Alarm Indicator
This CO and Gas alarm is designed to act as a monitor. It is not
designed for use as a short term testing device to perform a quick check
for the presence of CO or gas.
When the alarm senses a dangerous level of CO, the unit will emit a
loud alarm pattern. The alarm pattern is 4 quick beeps followed by 5
seconds of silence. This cycle repeats as long as a dangerous CO condi-
tions exist. The digital display will indicate the CO concentration in parts
per million (PPM).
When the unit senses either natural gas or propane, the display will
show “GAS” and emit a loud alarm pattern. The alarm pattern for gas is
1/2 second beep followed by a 1/2 second of silence then repeating.
In all cases, the unit will detect CO as a priority over gas. If the unit is
detecting gas, then detects an amount of CO to cause an alarm, the
unit will stop alarming for gas and alarm for CO.

the unit to a wall, pull out the slide support and place
in a location that is easily visible. Be sure the alarm is no more than three
feet from the floor.
