CARBON MONOXIDE ALARM
Do not attempt to repair your CO
detector. Do not remove any screws
or open the main casing of your
detector. Any attempt to do so may
cause malfunction and will invalidate
the warranty.
WHAT TO DO IN THE EVENT OF AN ALARM
• Keep calm and open all the doors and
windows to ventilate your caravan.
• Stop using all fuel burning appliances and
ensure where possible they are turned off.
• Evacuate the caravan leaving doors and
windows open.
• Do not re-enter the caravan until the alarm
has stopped.
• Get medical help for anyone suffering the
effects of CO poisoning and advise that CO
poisoning is suspected.
• Do not use the caravan again until you
have had a full service of all appliances by
your supplying retailer. In the case of gas
appliances they must be tested by a GAS
SAFE registered installer. Please contact
your Bailey retailer for more details.
• The electro-chemical sensors used in the
carbon-monoxide alarm have a limited
lifespan–therefore it is recommended that a
CO alarm is replaced every 5–7 years after
manufacture or in accordance with the
unit’s instructions. Check the manufacturing
date on the alarm’s label.
(85dB at 1m/3ft) will be emitted and the alarm
LED will flash red once every second.
The alarm will sound:
• Between 60 and 90 minutes when exposed
to 50ppm of CO.
• Between 10 and 40 minutes when exposed
to 100ppm of CO.
• Within 3 minutes when exposed to 300ppm
or more CO.
• There will be an audible “chirp” if the
battery, sensor or circuitry has any fault
including a low battery. This sound will
continue once a minute for 30 days.
(The battery must be replaced to ensure
occupant safety.)
• If the device continues to chirp despite
having new batteries and the product is still
in warranty then contact technical support
for the device. If the device is no longer in
warranty replace it immediately.
MAINTAINING AND TESTING YOUR DETECTOR
Your detector will alert you to potential
hazardous CO concentrations in your caravan
when maintained properly. To maintain your
FireAngel detector in proper working order
and to ensure that the sensors will last for the
lifetime of the product, it is recommended that
you:
• Test the sounder, batteries and circuitry of
your detector once per week by pressing
and holding the Test/Reset button for 1
second.
• Keep the detector free of dust by gently
vacuuming with a soft brush attachment
when required.
To prevent the possibility of contaminating the
sensor in your detector and thus affecting its
reliability:
• Never use cleaning solutions on your
detector. Simply wipe with a damp cloth.
• Do not paint the detector.
• Do not spray aerosols on or near to the
detector.
• Do not use any solvent based products near
to the detector
Failure of any test should be reported to the
manufacturer’s technical support line.
