Battery Powered CO Alarm (cont.)
Move the CO alarm and place in another location prior to
performing any of the following:
• Staining or stripping wood floors or furniture
• Painting
• Wall papering
• Using adhesives
Storing the unit in a plastic bag during the above projects will
protect the sensor from permanent damage.
WARNING: As soon as possible, place the CO alarm back
in its proper location to assure continuous protection
from carbon monoxide poisoning.
When household cleaning supplies or similar contaminants are
used, the area should be well ventilated.
The following substances can affect the sensor and may
cause false readings:
Methane, propane, iso-butane, iso-propanol, ethylene,
benzene, toluene, ethyl acetate, hydrogen sulphide, sulphur
dioxides, alcohol based products, paints, thinner, solvents,
adhesives, hairsprays, aftershaves, perfumes and some
cleaning agents.
