Features

Permanent independent smoke and carbon monoxide sensors (ionization and electrochemical).

Loud 85 decibel alarm.

Alarm/Voice message warning system that specifies which dangerous condition exists, eliminating any confusion over which alarm is sounding:

FIRE: The alarm/voice pattern is 8 seconds of alarm beeps followed by the verbal warning message, “Fire! Feu!” This pattern is repeated until the smoke is eliminated. The red LED light will flash while in alarm/voice mode.

CARBON MONOXIDE: The alarm/voice pattern is four short alarm beeps followed by the verbal warning message, “Carbon Monoxide! Monox y d e de Carbone!” This continues until the unit is reset or the CO eliminated. After four minutes the alarm/voice pattern will sound once every minute. The red Light Emitting Diode (LED) light will flash while in alarm/voice mode.

LOW BATTERY: When the batteries are low and need replacing the red LED light will flash and the unit will “chirp” one time, followed by the warn i n g message, “ L ow Battery. P i l e Faible!” This cycle will occur once every minute for the first hour. After the first hour the red LED light will continue to flash every minute accompanied by the "chirp" only sound. The voice message “ L ow Battery. P i l e Faible!” will sound once every fifteen minutes during the “chirp” only cycle. This will continue for at least seven days.

One “chirp” every 30 seconds is an indication that the alarm is malfunctioning. If this occurs call the Consumer Hotline at 1-800-880-6788.

NOTE: After seven (7) years of cumulative power up, this unit will "chirp" every 30 seconds. This is an "operational end of life" feature which will indicate

4that it is time to replace the alarm.
