What to do When the Alarm Sounds
▲
!
WARNING: Actuation of your CO
Alarm indicates the presence of Carbon
Monoxide (CO) which can KILL YOU.
When the CO alarm senses a dangerous level of CO, the unit will emit a loud
alarm pattern. The alarm pattern is 4 short “chirps” – followed by 5 seconds of
silence – followed by 4 short “chirps”. (Note: When the unit is disconnected
from the 120V power supply and is on battery backup, the alarm pattern will
continue for the first 5 minutes after detecting CO and then the cycle will repeat
every one minute). Know how to respond to a CO emergency. Periodically
review this user’s guide and discuss with all members of your family.
