General Limitations of CO Alarms
CO alarms require a source of power to work. Verify the green
LED on the alarm is on at all times. This unit is powered by a UL
Listed fire or UL Listed fire/burglary alarm control panel; there-
fore, the unit may not operate during a power failure or if the
central control panel is disabled.
WARNING !
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)
commerical or industrial standards.
People with special medical problems should consider using
specialized detection devices with under 30 ppm alarming
capabilities.
CAUTION ! This alarm will only indicate the presence
of carbon monoxide gas at the sensor. CO may be present in other
areas. Anything preventing CO from reaching the sensor, such as
closed doors, could delay or prevent the alarm being activated.
We recommend that a sensor be installed in each bedroom and in
the hallways between them.
Reminder - If the unit is in trouble or at the end of its life, it may
not sense CO and can not be relied upon to monitor carbon
monoxide levels.

CO alarms are not smoke alarms. This alarm is designed to
detect CO from any combustion source. It is NOT designed to
detect smoke, fire or any other gas.
CO alarms may not be heard. A sound sleeper, or someone who
has taken drugs or alcohol, may not awaken if the alarm is
installed outside a bedroom. Normal noise due to stereos,
television etc. may also prevent hearing the alarm if the sound is
blocked by distance or closed doors. Closed or partially closed
doors and distance can block sound. This unit is not designed for
the hearing impaired.
CO alarms are not a substitute for life insurance. Though
these alarms will warn against increasing CO levels, we do not
warrant or imply in any way that they will protect lives from CO
poisoning. They should only be considered as an integral part of a
comprehensive safety program. Home owners and renters must
still insure their own lives.
Replacement Information
This product is designed to work reliably for 5 years after the
installation date. The End of Sensor Life indicator will activate
after approximately 5 years to signal that it is time to replace the
alarm. At that time, you should contact your local distributor to
replace the alarm.
