CO ALARM PROCEDURE
When a carbon monoxide alarm occurs:
1. Immediately evacuate the premises and move to fresh
air, either outdoors or by an open door or window.
2. Call emergency services (Fire Department or 911)
3. Ensure that all persons previously within the premises
are accounted for. Do not re-enter the premises until
authorized by emergency service responders.
4. If the CO alarm reactivates, repeat steps 1-3 and call a
qualified service technician to investigate all possible
sources of carbon monoxide, such as from fuel burning
RECOMMENDED INSTALLATION LOCATIONS
A CO detector should be located in every sleeping
area, in each of the other family living units, but
just outside the kitchen.

All technical manuals are available in PDF format at
appliances and other equipment, and repair all prob-
lems found immediately. Note any equipment not in-
spected and refer to the equipment manufacturer's doc-
umentation, or contact the manufacturer's directly for
more information about how the equipment can leak
carbon monoxide into the premises. Ensure all motor
vehicles are not, and have not been, operating in an
attached garage, operating adjacent to the premises, or
operating next to ventilation fresh air intake vents. Nev-
er restart the source of a CO problem until it has been
corrected.
5. If the CO condition that caused the alarm continues, the
alarm will reactivate. Never ignore the sound of the
alarm! If the CO alarm resounds, the detector is sens-
ing levels of CO that can quickly become a dangerous
situation. EVACUATE IMMEDIATELY (repeat steps 1-
4).
MAINTENANCE
To keep your detector in functioning correctly, you must:
• Test the unit once a week by pressing the Test/Hush
button (insert a non-conductive pointed object, such as a
toothpick)
• Carefully vacuum the unit cover once a month to remove
accumulated dust
• Never use detergents or solvents to clean the unit.
Chemicals can permanently damage or temporarily con-
taminate the sensor
In family living units with more than
one sleeping area, a CO detector
should be provided for each separate
sleeping area.

monoxide alarm in
