4. Installation
Warning: The Installation of this CO Alarm should not be used as a subsitute
for proper installation, use and maintenance of fuel buring appliances including
appropriate ventilation and exhaust systems.
4.1 Installation Procedure
1. Select a location complying with the advice in ‘Where
to place CO Alarms’ section.
2. Remove the mounting plate from the packaging/
Alarm.
3. Place the mounting plate on the ceiling/wall exactly
where you want to mount the Alarm. With a pencil, mark
the location of the two screw holes.
4. Taking care to avoid any electrical wiring in the ceiling,
drill holes using a 5.0mm drill bit through the centre of
the marked locations. Push the plastic screw anchors
provided into the drilled holes. Screw the mounting plate
to the ceiling/wall. If wall mounting the CO Alarm, the
panel pin may be used as an alternative to the screws,
provided it is suitable for the mounting surface.
5. Alternatively, if desired, the CO Alarm will also free
stand on a flat surface with the mounting plate attached.
6. If using the RadioLINK interconnection, ensure the RF module is fitted correctly
into the base of the Alarm. For further advice on the RadioLINK installation, see
booklet “RadioLINK Module for Battery Powered Carbon Monoxide Alarms”.
