How Carbon Monoxide can affect you

Refer to the Manufacturer's instruction booklet for full details on
the symptoms associated with increasing degrees of exposure to
Carbon Monoxide.
DANGER: Never ignore any alarm, further exposure can be fatal.
Get medical help immediately for anyone suffering the effects of
Carbon Monoxide poisoning (e.g. headaches or nausea).
Do not use the appliance again until it has been checked by a Gas
Safe qualified engineer.

Positioning

Carbon Monoxide (CO) alarms
containing a fuel-burning appliance and every sleeping room.
When fitting in the same room as a fuel burning appliance the
alarm should be at a horizontal distance between 1 and 3m from
the potential source, if the room has a sloped ceiling it should be at
the high side of the room. If the alarm is wall mounted it should be
at least 150mm below the ceiling and at a height greater than any
door or window. If the alarm is ceiling mounted it should be at least
300mm away from any wall or light fitting. If fitted in sleeping
rooms the alarm should be located close to the breathing zone of
the occupants.
Refer to the Manufacturer's instruction booklet for more
information on positioning.

Alarm Condition

If Carbon Monoxide is detected the unit will repeatedly sound 4
loud beeps and the red CO light will flash once every 5 seconds.
Keep calm, turn off all fuel-burning appliances and open the doors
and windows to ventilate the property. Evacuate the property
leaving the doors and windows open.
Contact your Gas supplier on their emergency number.
Do not re-enter the building until the alarm has stopped.

Low Battery Condition

If the unit chirps every 60 seconds and the yellow warning light
flashes at the same time, this indicates the battery is running low.
The low battery condition will be reported to the Alarm Receiving
Centre (ARC) or the local Manager.
The CO alarm should be replaced within 30 days.

Sleep Easy Feature

Low battery warnings often start at night or when it may be
inconvenient to replace the alarm. You can silence the audible
low battery chirp for a period of eight hours by pressing the
Test/ button. After this period the audible chirp will start
again. This process can be repeated up to 10 times. The alarm
will still detect CO during this time, however it must be replaced
within 30 days.

Fault Condition

If the unit chirps every 60 seconds and the yellow warning light
flashes 20-25 seconds after, this indicates a fault with the CO
alarm and it should be replaced immediately.

Out of Range Notification (Reach IP)

The Reach IP can monitor all radio peripheral devices to
determine whether they have been damaged or removed from
an installation. Should the Reach IP be unable to detect a device's
heartbeat it will automatically generate a "radio out of range"
notification. Firstly, investigate if there's a genuine reason for the
alert, if not, arrange for the peripheral device to be replaced
immediately. The "Radio out of range timer" can be set from 30
hours to 99999 hours in Pulse CMP. "Radio supervision" can be
disabled by unchecking the tick box associated with each
peripheral device in Pulse CMP.

Maintenance

Test the CO alarm once every week.
Clean once every 3 months using a vacuum cleaner fitted with
the soft brush attachment. Do not use solvents or cleaners on
the CO alarm, the unit can be wiped with a damp cloth.

Disposal

Waste electrical products should not be disposed of with normal
household waste. The CO alarm is ideally suited for disposal
within the waste electronic and electrical equipment (WEEE)
recycling scheme. Please recycle where facilities exist.
Check with your local authority or contact your supplier for
recycling/disposal advice.

Warning

The CO alarm contains a powerful Lithium battery.
If tampered with the battery may be damaged and create a fire
hazard. No attempt should be made to open the case or remove
the battery. Do not incinerate.
