Quicksilver 755OP — System & Component Overview and Operation
Accumulation of Carbon Monoxide Examples

canvas openings to let fresh air circulate
Carbon Monoxide Monitor
The CO monitor is an electronic instrument that detects carbon monoxide. The detector is very
sensitive and will notify you before dangerous amounts of CO can accumulate which will allow you to
take measures to dissipate the gas from the affected areas. When there is a buildup of CO in the
cabin, the monitor will alert the occupants by flashing a DANGER light and sounding an alarm. The CO
monitor is powered through a breaker on the battery panel in the cockpit.
It is important that you read and understand the CO monitor information and operating instructions.
It is extremely important that you become familiar with the CO monitor and its functions.
Testing the CO Monitor
Test the monitor on your boat at manufacturers required intervals by pushing the TEST button on the
side of the unit. If the unit is operating correctly both audible and visual warning indicators will be
activated.
End of Life Signal
Your CO detector may be equipped with an End Of Life (EOL) signal indicating the sensor used in the
unit has reached the end of its service life and must be replaced. The signal is activated from a timer
that will run for 4 years, 11 months from the date of manufacture. Depending on your monitor, the
EOL signal indicator varies, so check the unit's operation manual for further information and
instructions.
The EOL signal can be reset for a period of 72 hours (3 days) for a total of up to 30 days. After this
time, the unit will continuously signal EOL and will no longer detect CO and MUST BE REPLACED! DO
NOT DISCONNECT THE ALARM UNTIL YOU HAVE A REPLACEMENT ALARM AVAILABLE TO INSTALL!
REMOVING THE LITHIUM BATTERY WILL CAUSE THE UNIT TO SIGNAL EOL PERMANENTLY!
