3. Installation Locations
Recommended Installation
Locations
CO alarms should be mounted in or
near bedrooms and living areas. It is
recommended that you install a Bryant
CO alarm on each level of your home.
When choosing your installation
locations, make sure you can hear the
alarm from all sleeping areas. If you
install only one CO alarm in your home, install it near bedrooms, not in the
basement or furnace room.
• The CO alarm plugs into a wall socket. Children must be taught not to
handle the CO alarm.
Locations To Avoid
IMPORTANT: Improper location can affect the sensitive electronic
components in this alarm. To avoid causing damage to the unit, to provide
optimum performance, and to prevent unnecessary nuisance alarms:
• Do not install in kitchens, garages or furnace rooms that may expose the
sensor to substances that could damage or contaminate it.
• Do not install in areas where the temperature is colder than 4.4°C (40°F)
or hotter than 37.8°C (100°F) such as crawl spaces, attics, porches and
garages.
• Do not install within 5 ft. of heating or cooking appliances. (Bryant
recommends 15 ft. to prevent nuisance alarms).
• Do not install near vents, flues, chimneys or any forced/unforced air
ventilation openings.
• Do not install near ceiling fans, doors, windows or areas directly exposed
to the weather.
• Do not install in dead air spaces, such as peaks of vaulted ceilings or
gabled roofs, where CO may not reach the sensor in time to provide early
warning.
• Do not install this unit near deep-cell large batteries. Large batteries have
emissions that can cause the alarm to perform at less than optimum
performance.
• Do not obstruct the vents located on the alarm. Do not place the alarm
where drapes, furniture or other objects block the flow of air to the vents.
