Testing a carbon monoxide (CO) detector
V-Series carbon monoxide (CO) detectors have an accelerated response mode
that you can use when testing. In normal mode, V-Series CO detectors activate
after carbon monoxide levels reach 400 ppm (parts per million) for 4 minutes.
In accelerated response mode, V-Series CO detectors activate within 4 to
8 seconds after reaching 400 ppm.
Notes
• The V-Series CO detector normal response rate mimics the normal
absorption rate of CO in the bloodstream.
• If you do not restore the response mode, CO detection returns to its normal
response time after 4 hours.
To change the CO rate of detection:
1. From the Main Menu, choose Activate.
