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.
Indoor Air Quality
This device is designed to monitor levels of temperature, relative humidity and total volatile organic compounds
(TVOC) – chemicals in the air that can impact your health. Visit www.epa.org for more information on VOCs. Relative
Humidity % (RH) refers to the percentage of water vapor in the air at a given temperature. Ideal RH for living con-
ditions is usually recommended at 30% - 60%. The parameters listed below are based on a typical average, climate
controlled residence. When conditions in the residence move outside of the limits shown in the table, an alert is sent
to your mobile device. You can also check the status of your indoor air quality using the Kidde app, after your alarm is
registered with the app.
