SYSTEM OPERATIONS-14
When Carbon Monoxide Gas is detected by the CO
Monitor, the following visual and audible signals will
appear:
Low CO Warning
YELLOW fl
ashing indicator light accompanied by a
“BEEP” sound every fi ve (5) minutes. The YELLOW
indicator light will continue to fl ash until the presence
of CO has lowered to an acceptable level. If the CO
level has not been lowered to an acceptable level, an
alarm will sound in approximately fi fteen (15) minutes.
Contact a qualifi ed technician to locate and repair the
source of the Carbon Monoxide Gas. DO NOT enter
your yacht until repairs have been made and the CO
has been brought to an acceptable level.
CO Alarm
RED flashing indicator light accompanied by a
pulsed alarm sound. This indicates the presence
of a dangerous level of Carbon Monoxide Gas and
IMMEDIATE ACTION IS REQUIRED. Contact a
qualifi
ed technician to locate and repair the source of
the Carbon Monoxide Gas. DO NOT enter your yacht
until repairs have been made and the CO has been
brought to an acceptable level. After depressing the
“Reset” switch, the RED indicator light will continue
to fl ash and the alarm will produce a “BEEP” sound
every thirty (30) seconds until the CO is lowered to
the Low CO Warning level. If the CO is not lowered
to this level, the pulsed alarm will resound in approxi-
mately six (6) minutes. The Low CO Warning alarm
will activate if the Carbon Monoxide Gas is lowered
to the low concentration level.
CO Monitor Malfunction
Indicator light fl ashes alternating RED/GREEN ac-
companied by a “BEEP” sound every fi fteen (15)
seconds. Depressing the “Test/Reset” switch will not
discontinue the visual and audio signal. See your
Silverton Dealer for inspection and replacement of
the unit(s), if necessary.
Maintenance of your CO Monitors is as follows:
Test each monitor after removing your yacht from
storage, prior to departing on each cruise, and
on a weekly basis. Refer to the User’s Manual
•
included with your Owner’s Packet for the proper
test procedure.
Frequently observe the color of the indicator light
on each CO Monitor and during testing to be
certain the light is functioning properly.
Vacuum the dust off the CO Monitor cover with
the brush attachment of your vacuum cleaner
at least once a year and more frequently if your
yacht is maintained in a dusty climate.
Frequently clean the CO Monitor cover with a
damp cloth to remove all dirt and grease that may
accumulate. Dry with a soft, dry cloth.
DO NOT spray cleaning agents or waxes directly
onto the CO Monitor cover.
