Carbon Monoxide Gas and its Detection
Thiscarbonmonoxidedetectorisdesignedforindooruseonly.Donotexposeto
rainormoisture.Donotknockordropthedetector.Donotopenortamperwith
thedetectorasthiscouldcausemalfunction.Thedetectorwillnotprotectagainst
theriskofcarbonmonoxidepoisoningifnot
properlyinstalled.
WARNING: Thisdevicewill onlyindicatethepresenceofcarbonmonoxide
gasatthesensor.Carbonmonoxidegasmaybepresentinotherareas.
Thiscarbonmonoxidealarmingdeviceisdesignedtodetectcarbonmonoxidegas
fromANYsourceofcombustion.ItisNOTdesignedtodetectsmoke,orothergases
unless
theproducthasbeeninvestigatedanddeterminedtocomplywithapplicable
requirements.
Thisdeviceshouldnotbeinstalledasasubstituteforproperinstallation,use,and
maintenanceoffuelburningappliances,includingappropriateventilationand
exhaustsystems.
Carbonmonoxidegasisahighlypoisonousgaswhichisreleasedwhenfuelsare
burned.
Itisinvisible,hasnosmellandisthereforeimpossibletodetectwiththe
humansenses.Undernormalconditionsinaroomwherefuelburningappliances
arewellmaintainedandcorrectlyventilated,theamountofcarbonmonoxide
releasedintotheroombyappliancesshouldnotbedangerous.
Conditions Resulting in Dangerous CO
Situations
1 Excessivespillageorreverseventingoffuel‐burningappliancescausedby:
• outdoorambientconditions,suchaswinddirectionand/orvelocity,
includinghighgustsofwind,andinsufficientdraftintheventpipes
•negativepressuredifferentialresultingfromtheuseofexhaustfans
• simultaneousoperationofseveralfuel‐burningappliancescompetingfor
limited
internalair
•looseventpipeconnectionsfromfuel‐fedappliances,
• obstructions,orunconventionalventpipedesignsthatcanamplifythe
abovesituations
• poorlydesignedormaintainedchimneysand/orvents
2 Extendedoperationofunventedfuel‐burningdevices(range,oven,replace,
etc.)

IfyouhavebeenexposedtoCarbonMonoxidePoisoning,youmaybesuffering
fromvarioussymptoms(discussthesesymptomswithallofthemembersofyour
household):
Mild Exposure
•Headache,runningnose,soreeyes(oftendescribedas‘flu‐like’symptoms)
Medium Exposure
• Dizziness,drowsiness,vomiting
Extreme Exposure
• Unconsciousness,braindamage,death
ManyreportedcasesofreportedCarbonMonoxidePoisoningindicatethatwhile
victimsareawaretheyarenotwell,theybecomesodisorientedthattheyare
unabletosavethemselvesbyeitherexitingthebuildingorcallingforassistance.

WARNING: Individualswithmedicalproblemsshouldconsiderusing
warningdeviceswhichprovideaudibleandvisualsignalsforcarbon
monoxideconcentrationsunder30ppm.
Actuation of this device indicates the presence of Carbon
Monoxide (CO) which can KILL YOU
Ifthealarmsignalsounds,fourbeeps:
1 Pushthehush/testbutton.
2 Immediatelymovetofreshair(outdoorsornexttoanopenwindow).
3 Checkthatallpersonswithintheareaareaccountedfor.
4 Donotre‐enterthepremises(ormoveawayfromtheopenwindowuntilthe
emergencyservicerespondershavearrived,thepremiseshavebeenairedout,
andyouralarmremainsinnormalcondition.
5 Callemergencyservices,thefiredepartment,or911.

Replacing the Detector
Thisdetectorismanufacturedwithalong‐lifecarbonmonoxidesensor.Overtime
thesensorwilllosesensitivity,andwillneedtobereplacedwithanewcarbon
monoxidedetector.Thedetector’slifespanis5yearsfromthedateofmanufacture.
NOTE: Whenthedetectorisremovedfromitsbase,aTampermessageis
senttothecentralmonitoringstation.Thedetectoralsocausesatrouble
conditionwhenithasreachedtheendofitslife. Ifthisoccurs,itistimeto
replacethedetector.
Befor ereplacingthedetector,notifythecentral
monitoringstationthat
maintenanceisbeingperformedandthatthesystemwillbetemporarilyoutof
service.FromtheControlPanel,disablethezoneorsystemundergoing
maintenancetopreventanyunwantedalarms.Disposeofthedetectorin
accordancewithanylocalregulations.
IMPORTANT: TheReplacementDatethatappearsonthedeviceisthedate
beyondwhichthedevicemaynolongerdetectcarbonmonoxide
accuratelyandshouldbeimmediatelyreplaced.
Theinstallation,operationtestingandmaintenanceoftheWirelessCarbon
MonoxideAlarmisdifferentthansmokedetectors.PerNFPA720section5.3.7.2the
detector
shallnotbeconnectedtoazonethatsignalsafirecondition(i.e.smoke
