8. Installation / Activation
CAUTION: THIS UNIT IS SEALED. THE COVER IS NOT REMOVABLE!
NOTE: YOUR CO ALARM MUST BE INSTALLED BY A COMPETENT PERSON, AND IS TO BE
INSTALLED ACCORDING TO THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
After selecting the proper alarm location as described in the "Recommended Locations for CO Alarms" section,
you may choose either a wall mounting or free-standing installation.
Wall-mounting (recommended by the manufacturer, if possible)
1. Drill two holes in a wall 78 mm apart (you may wish to use the back-plate for guidance)
2. Insert the two wall plugs, that are supplied, into the holes
3. Insert the two screws as supplied into the holes ensuring enough of the screw sticks out of the wall
(approx. 3mm)
4. Hook the alarm back-plate over the screws and then tighten
Free-standing
ALWAYS BE CAREFUL TO LOCATE A FREE-STANDING ALARM WHERE IT IS UNLIKELY TO BE KNOCKED TO THE
FLOOR, AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE RECOMMENDED LOCATIONS SECTION.
Ensure free-standing alarms are placed in the upright position, and not lying flat on a surface.
Activation
Slide the alarm onto the back plate to activate the sealed lithium battery. The unit will automatically activate
when the back plate is first attached. The battery will remain active if the unit is removed from the back plate.
NOTE: The alarm is tamper-proof and can only be removed using a screw driver.
The alarm is now activated! After installation / activation, test your alarm as described in Operation and Testing
section.
