Avoid the following:
• Excessive spillage or reverse venting of fuel burning
appliances caused by outdoor ambient conditions, such as:
1) Wind direction and/or velocity, including high gusts
of wind. Heavy air in the vent pipes (cold/humid air with
extended periods between cycles). 2) Negative pressure
differential resulting from the use of exhaust fans.
3) Simultaneous operation of several fuel burning appliances
competing for limited internal air. 4) Vent pipe connections
vibrating loose from clothes dryers, furnaces or water heaters.
5) Obstructions in or unconventional vent pipe designs which
can amplify the above situations.
• Extended operation of unvented fuel burning devices (range,
oven, fireplace, etc.).
• Temperature inversions which can trap exhaust gasses near
the ground.
• Car idling in an open or closed attached garage, or near
a home.
How to Install Your Alarm
Your Kidde CO alarm with its removable adapter allows you to install the
alarm as a wall mounted unit, a direct plug unit, or as a table top unit.
Direct Plug Alarm
Refer to “Where to Install Your CO Alarm” on page

CO alarm.
In its “as shipped” configuration, your Kidde CO

plug the alarm into.
2. Pull the slide support out approximately 1/4”
until the slide snaps into place. This will help support unit in the wall
