In the Event of an Alarm
1.
Operate reset/silence button
2.
Call your emergency services (fire department or 911).
3.
Immediately move to fresh air – outdoors or by an open door/window. Check that all
persons are present. Do not re-enter the premises or move away from the open
door/window until emergency services responders have arrived, the premises have
been aired out and alarm remains in its normal condition.
4.
After following steps 1-3, if your 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 the 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 manufactures' instructions, or contact the manufacturers directly, for more
information about CO safety and their equipment.
Nuisance Alarms
Although the CO Alarm will detect only carbon monoxide in a normal environment, studies have
found that unusually high concentrations of chemicals and/or vapors may affect the sensor.
Many of these chemicals are the result of out-gassing in new boats. While these chemicals may
cause nuisance alarms, levels high enough to create an alarm condition are also hazardous. Treat
these "nuisance" alarms as an actual carbon monoxide alarm condition. Evacuate and ventilate
the area. Before, during, and immediately after working with any chemicals, make sure enough
fresh air ventilation is available.
