• Congratulations on becoming the owner of an Ei Carbon Monoxide Alarm. This
will help protect you and your household from the dangerous effects of Carbon
Monoxide- the silent killer.
• The Carbon Monoxide Alarm (CO Alarm) is powered up by carefully rotating it onto
the mounting plate which activates the on/off switch. The indicator lights will
immediately flash in sequence to show they are working. (For the Display models, the
LCD screen will display all icons). Then wait 15 seconds after connecting the power
before button testing.
• Install a CO Alarm in every room that contains a fuel burning appliance, particularly
rooms where people spend a lot of time e.g. bedrooms, kitchens and sitting rooms.
• In rooms with an appliance, install (preferably) on the ceiling, (300mm from walls)
and between 1m to 3m horizontally from appliance. In rooms remote from the
appliance install at 'head height', where the light indicators can be seen.
• Test the Alarm weekly by pressing the test button, and check that the alarm sounds.
• Replace Alarm when the "REPLACE UNIT BY" date has been reached. Check the label
on the side of the alarm.
• Do not fit Alarm until all building work is completed to avoid contamination.
