Caring for your Kidde Battery Powered
CO Alarm
To keep your CO alarm in good working order, please
follow these simple steps:
•
Verify unit alarm, lights and battery operation by pushing
the test button once a week.
•
Vacuum the CO alarm cover with a soft brush attachment
once a month to remove accumulated dust.
•
Instruct children never to play with the CO alarm. Warn
children of the dangers of carbon monoxide poisoning.
•
Never use detergents or other solvents to clean the CO alarm.
•
Avoid spraying air freshener, hair spray, paint or other
aerosols near the CO alarm.
•
Do not paint the CO alarm. Paint will seal the vents and
interfere with the sensor ability to detect CO.
•
Do not place near a nappy bucket.

forming any of the following:

proper location to assure protection from Carbon Monoxide poi-
soning.
