ALWAYS read the manual and make sure you understand the CO Alarm lights and sounds
1. ASSEMBLY & SWITCHING ON YOUR CO ALARM
1.0 Bring alarm & base/radio base together then slide to lock into place. The light will flash RED and the device will beep.
2. FIXING OPTIONS
2.1 Attach the stand or fix firmly to the wall using the screws and fixings
3. DISCONNECT CO ALARM
3.1 Depress the tag fully towards the back of the baseplate and slide the alarm towards the top.
4. WHERE TO POSITION YOUR CO ALARM
4.1 The position of the alarm should be where it can detect CO as soon as possible to alert and protect the occupants of the premises. (Do not place closer than 1m from the source appliance)
4.2 Make sure it can be heard by the occupants when in all parts of the premises including behind closed doors.
PLEASE NOTE: IF EITHER OR BOTH OF THESE CONDITIONS CANNOT BE MET, ADDITIONAL ALARMS SHOULD BE FITTED THROUGHOUT THE PREMISES
5. USEFUL INFORMATION
5.1 The overriding instruction is to ALWAYS follow the manufacturers guidance.
5.2 Place the alarm in the room of potential origin of CO.
5.3 Place it high in the room (Above the tops of windows and doors) but no closer than 150mm from the ceiling.
5.4 If the alarm is in another room and NOT the room of origin it should be placed within the breathing zone of occupants in the room.
5.5 Be particularly aware of the elderly, disabled and children; and their limitations.
5.6 Test the alarm once a month to ensure it is still operating. ONLY use the test button.
5.7 TEST THE ALARM BEFORE LEAVING THE PREMISES
5.8 Vacuum the alarm to keep the vents clear of dust and insects
5.9 Every six months clean the alarm with a damp cloth (do not use spray or chemical cleaners and polishes)
5.10 Replace the alarm at the end of its life.
NOTE: CARBON MONOXIDE IS HOT WHEN IT IS RELEASED SO IT WILL BE CARRIED UPWARDS TO THE TOP OF THE ROOM OF ORIGIN FROM WHERE IT WILL COOL AND FALL TO ALL PARTS OF THE PREMISES.
