Mounting

Your CO alarm is designed for
mounting onto the inside wall.
You should fix the back plate
provided to the wall first, using
the screws and rawl plugs.
When the plate is attached
locate the the slots on the
back of the alarm with the keys on the
back plate, sliding downwards and into position until the

To remove, press the tab against the wall and lift the alarm out of the
mounting plate.
Install your CO alarm 1.5 metres from the floor.
NOTE: Your 9CO5 CO alarm is not designed for portability.
Where To Install Your Kidde CO Alarm
The following suggestions are intended to help you with the
placement and installation of your Kidde CO alarm.
