HOW TO INSTALL YOUR CO ALARM

Read "Where To Install CO Alarms" before starting.
Before you start installation, find the pair of self-adhesive labels included with this CO Alarm. On each label write in the phone number of your emergency
responder (like 911) and a qualified appliance technician. Place one label near the CO Alarm, and the other label in the "fresh air" location you plan to go if the alarm
sounds.
NOTE: Activate alarm prior to mounting.
1. Activating the Battery. Move the activation switch to ON position. Utilize a small tool to help
activate switch if needed. Once unit is activated, it cannot be turned off.
NOTE: Horn chirps, and all segments are turned on for a short time upon activation.
2. Test the CO Alarm. See "Weekly Testing".
To Permanently Deactivate The Alarm. This CO Alarm contains a sealed, non-replaceable battery.
3.
Once it reaches the end of its service life, or after 10 years you must install a new CO Alarm. Deactivate
the CO Alarm by inserting a tool below edge where shown and break tab. Then slide activation switch to
DEACTIVATE mode.
NOTE: Once you deactivate this unit, it will not detect CO or alarm and cannot be reactivated.
4. This CO Alarm can either be wall mounted or placed on a tabletop. If Alarm is placed on a tabletop, be sure the Alarm is no more than 3 feet (0.9 meter) from
the floor to minimize the risk of causing permanent damage to the Alarm in the event that it is accidentally knocked to the ground.

TO MOUNT ON THE WALL
Tools you will need: pencil, drill with 3/16" or 5mm drill bit, flathead screwdriver, hammer, mounting template.
1. Choose a location on the wall. Do not install the Alarm closer than 4" (102 mm) from where the wall meets the ceiling.
2. Hold the mounting guide template against the wall, and make a mark inside each keyhole where you will drill your mounting holes as shown in the diagram
below.
3. Use a 3/16" (5 mm) drill bit to drill through the marks you made for the mounting holes.
4. Insert the plastic screw anchors into the mounting holes until they are flush with the wall. If necessary, tap them gently with a hammer.
5. Insert the screws into the anchors until the screwhead is 1/8 inch (3 mm) away from the wall.
6. Slide the CO Alarm onto the screws until you feel it click into place.
7. Test the CO Alarm as described in "Weekly Testing."

IF YOUR CO ALARM SOUNDS

Actuation of your CO Alarm indicates the presence of carbon monoxide (CO) which can kill you. In other words, when your CO Alarm sounds, you must
not ignore it!
See "General Limitations of CO Alarms" for details included in the card packaged with alarm.
IF THE ALARM SIGNAL SOUNDS:
1. Operate the Silence button.
2. Call your emergency services, fire department or 911. Write down the number of your local emergency service here:
_________________________________________________________
3. Immediately move to fresh air—outdoors or by an open door or window. Do a head count to check that all persons are accounted for. Do not re-enter the
premises, or move away from the open door or window until the emergency services responder has arrived, the premises have been aired out, and your CO
Alarm remains in its normal condition.
4. After following steps 1-3, if your CO Alarm reactivates within a 24-hour period, repeat steps 1-3 and call a qualified appliance technician to investigate for
sources of CO from fuel-burning equipment and appliances, and inspect for proper operation of this equipment. If problems are identified during this inspection
have the equipment serviced immediately. Note any combustion equipment not inspected by the technician, and consult the manufacturers' instructions,
or contact the manufacturers directly, for more information about CO safety and this equipment. Make sure that motor vehicles are not, and have not, been
operating in an attached garage or adjacent to the residence. Write down the number of a qualified appliance technician here:
