  • Page 3: General Information

    General Information DANGER: ACTUATION OF THIS DEVICE INDICATES THE PRESENCE OF CARBON MONOXIDE (CO) WHICH CAN BE FATAL. THE SOURCE OF THE CO MAY BE AN APPLIANCE SUCH AS A FURNACE, A WOOD BURNING STOVE, A VEHICLE, A GENERATOR, OR OTHER COMBUSTION SOURCE. EVACUATE THE PREMISES IMMEDIATELY.
  • Page 4 General Information Continued CAUTION: THERE ARE NO USER OR FIELD SERVICEABLE PARTS IN THIS PRODUCT. THE CO ALARM MUST BE RETURNED TO THE MANUFACTURER FOR ANY REPAIR OR PERFORMANCE CHECKS. THIS PRODUCT IS NOT INTENDED FOR USE IN ORDINARY OUTDOOR LOCATIONS OF FAMILY LIVING UNITS.
  • Page 5 Information on conditions which can result in transient CO situations, such as: • Excessive spillage or reverse venting of fuel burning appliances caused by outdoor ambient conditions, such as: ▪ Wind direction and/or velocity, including high gusts of wind. Heavy air in the vent pipes (cold/humid air with extended periods between cycles).
  • Page 6 General Information Continued Where Must We Guard Against Carbon Monoxide? Carbon monoxide is a by-product of combustion. CO exists wherever fuels are burned to generate power or heat. Boats may utilize propane or compressed gas for cooking and/or heating. Boats have the added hazard of an auxiliary power generator where exhaust fumes may drift into the vessel.
  • Page 7 Limitations • This carbon monoxide alarm is designed to detect carbon monoxide gas from ANY source of combustion. It is NOT designed to detect smoke, fire or any other gas. • The CO Alarm will not detect carbon monoxide that is not in the vicinity of the alarm. Carbon monoxide in other rooms or areas will not be detected.

  • Page 11: Locating A Fireboy-Xintex Carbon Monoxide Alarm

    Locating a Fireboy-Xintex Carbon Monoxide Alarm Because of the high risk of carbon monoxide injuries due to the nature of boats, it is recommended a carbon monoxide alarm be installed in the main cabin and in each sleeping area (ABYC A-24.7.2) of the enclosed accommodation compartment (ABYC A-24-4-5). Small craft with an open design may only require one CO Alarm for adequate protection.
