Foretravel Owners Manual
The CO detector should be tested weekly. To test the unit, press the TEST/
RESET button located on the front of the detector. The detector is working
properly if the GREEN indicator light changes color to RED and the horn
sounds for as long as the TEST/RESET button is depressed.

OPERATION

The GREEN power ON indicator should glow continuously after a 10
minute initial warm-up period. If the indicator light does not light, check power
connections. Return this detector to manufacturer for service, if the power
connections are correct but the indicator still does not light. Do not at-
tempt to fix it yourself.

VISUAL AND AUDIBLE SIGNALS

1. LOW CO WARNING: YELLOW FLASHING LIGHT, "BEEP" EV-
ERY 5 MINUTES -indicates a low level build-up of carbon monoxide.
Use the RESET feature and refer to steps 1 & 2 in "Procedures To Take
During An Alarm". The YELLOW light will continue to flash until the
CO has dropped to a lower level. The alarm will re-sound in approximately
15 minutes if the carbon monoxide has not cleared. If the low level alarm
continues after 4 RESET cycles, leave the vehicle and call a qualified tech-
nician to locate and repair the source of the carbon monoxide. Do not re-
enter until the problem has been fixed.
2. CO ALARM: RED FLASHING LIGHT AND PULSED SOUND - indi-
cates the presence of at least 100 ppm of carbon monoxide.
IMMEDIATE ACTION IS REQUIRED
See below: "Procedures To Take During An Alarm". After using the Re-
set switch, the RED light will continue to flash and the alarm will beep ev-
ery 30 seconds until the CO has dropped below 100 ppm. The alarm will
re-sound in approximately 6 minutes if the CO level remains at 100 ppm or
more.
The CO WARNING ALARM will activate if CO levels have dropped be-
low 100 ppm but remain at lower levels. See Low CO Warning above.
3. DETECTOR MALFUNCTION:
LIGHT, BEEP EVERY 15 SECONDS AND THE TEST/RESET
WILL NOT CLEAR THE SIGNALS. Remove the detector immediately
and return to manufacturer for repair or replacement.
