Operating Instructions
NOTE: DENSE SMOKE WILL OVERRIDE THE HUSH ®
CONTROL FEATURE AND SOUND A CONTINUOUS
ALARM.
CAUTION: BEFORE USING THE ALARM HUSH ® FEA-
TURE, IDENTIFY THE SOURCE OF THE SMOKE AND BE
CERTAIN A SAFE CONDITION EXISTS.
Reset Feature
If the Smoke/CO Alarm is sounding a CO alarm, pressing
the test/reset button will initiate a test/reset. If the CO con-
dition that caused the alert continues, the alarm will reacti-
vate.
Low Battery HUSH ® CONTROL
When the battery needs to be replaced, the unit will pro-
duce a low battery "chirp" once per minute. The Low
Battery HUSH ® feature allows you to press the button on
the alarm producing the warning and disable the "chirp"
for a random period of up to 12 hours. This gives you a
chance to replace the battery at a more convenient time
without sacrificing your safety by disconnecting the alarm
from power. During this Low Battery HUSH ® period, your
alarm is performing normally and is not desensitized.
Alarm/Peak Level Memory
If the green LED is blinking once every 16 seconds, the
unit has detected a hazardous condition. If the unit has
detected a CO level of 100 PPM or greater, pushing the
Test/Reset button will result in a voice message "Caution,
carbon monoxide previously detected". Peak level also
happens if the unit detects smoke and then comes out of
alarm. However, there is no voice message if the unit is in
peak level due to smoke. When the Test/Reset button is
pushed, the unit will produce three rapid beeps. Pushing
the test/reset button resets the memory. It's also reset
when the power is removed.
