12. Operation and Testing

operation
The alarm is operating once it is activated and testing is
complete. When products of combustion (smoke or CO) are
sensed, the unit sounds a loud alarm with voice messages. (See
Sections 1 and 2 for alarm signal descriptions). In high levels of
CO, the unit will go into alarm in a shorter period of time than
at low levels of CO.
language Selection
This unit operates in either English or French. To switch your language preference at any time, press the button twice
on ALL devices you wish to connect. You should hear one beep for each button press, followed by a voice message
confirming your language selection ("English language selected" or "Langue française selectionné"). If no language
is selected, the voice prompts will continue in the default / set language.

Test your alarm weekly by pressing and releasing the button quickly. A quick beep will confirm the button has been
pushed followed by voice prompts that will inform you of the upcoming test sequence. See Other Alarm Visual and
Audible Indicators table. The alarm and voice (and any interconnected units) will sound if the electronic circuitry,
horn, speaker, and battery are working. If the alarm or voice does not sound, or gives erratic or low volume sound,
the unit must be replaced. See Permanently Disable Alarm / Discharge Battery section to determine how to prepare
the unit for shipment or disposal.

remote test using the app, you will not receive a text message.
