Safety

Batteries Low

The Smoke/Carbon Monoxide Detector will "chirp"
once a minute for at least 30 days when the batteries
are weak� The battery must immediately be replaced
with a fresh one. The unit may beep briefly when
you install the batteries� This is normal� The GREEN
light flashes about every 60 seconds when the unit is
receiving battery power�
Smoke/Carbon Monoxide detectors have a limited
life. The unit should be replaced immediately if it is
not operating properly. You should always replace
an alarm after 5 years from the date of purchase.
Write the purchase date on the space provided on
the back of unit.
This product is intended for use in ordinary, indoor
locations of family living units. It is not designed
to measure compliance with occupational safety
and health administration (OSHA) commercial or
industrial standards. Individuals who are at special
risk from Carbon Monoxide exposure by reason of
age, pregnancy, or medical condition may consider
using warning devices which provide audible and
visual signals for Carbon Monoxide concentration
under 30 ppm. If in doubt, consult your medical
practitioner.
Activation of your Carbon Monoxide alarm's
audible horn indicates the presence of Carbon
Monoxide that can kill you. Leave the area
immediately!

WARNING
WARNING
WARNING
NOTE
This Carbon Monoxide detector is designed for
indoor use only. Do not expose to rain or moisture.
Do not knock or drop the alarm. Do not open
or tamper with the alarm as this could cause
malfunction. The detector will not protect against
the risk of Carbon Monoxide poisoning when the
batteries are dead or missing. The alarm will only
indicate the presence of Carbon Monoxide gas at
the sensor. Carbon Monoxide gas may be present
in other areas.
Important Safety Precautions
• Ideally, it is recommended that a Carbon Monoxide
detector should be installed in or near every room
that has a fuel burning appliance such as any room
heaters, water heaters, cookers, grills, etc�
• Ensure that the alarm horn can be heard by all those
who are intended to hear it� Seek medical help if it
is suspected that a user of the RV is suffering from
Carbon Monoxide poisoning�
• If the alarm sounds, make sure to investigate the
problem� Ignoring the alarm may result in sickness,
injury or death� (CO may be present even if nothing
is seen or smelled by the user�)
• Room spaces should be well ventilated when
household cleaning supplies are used as these may
cause a false alarm�
• Alarm should be tested once per week� If further
details are required, which do not appear in this
manual, contact BRK Brands Inc� First Alert�

What Is Carbon Monoxide

Carbon Monoxide (CO) is a highly poisonous gas that
is released when fuels are burned� It is invisible, has
no smell, and is therefore very difficult to detect with
the human senses� Under normal conditions, in a room
where fuel-burning appliances are well maintained and
correctly ventilated, the amount of CO released into the
room by appliances is not dangerous�
These fuels include wood, coal, charcoal, oil, natural
gas, gasoline, kerosene, and propane� Common
appliances are often sources of CO� If they are not
properly maintained, are improperly ventilated, or
malfunction, CO levels can rise quickly� CO is a real
danger in air-tight vehicles with added insulation,
sealed windows, and other weatherproofing that can
trap CO inside�
