IMPORTANT: This carbon monoxide alarm is designed to detect carbon monoxide from ANY source of combustion. It is NOT
designed to detect smoke, fire, or any other gas. WARNING: Carbon monoxide alarms are not smoke alarms. This carbon
monoxide alarm is not a substitute for installing and maintaining an appropriate number of smoke alarms in your home. This
carbon monoxide alarm will not sense smoke, fire, or any poisonous gas other than carbon monoxide even though carbon
monoxide can be generated by fire. For this reason you must install smoke alarms to provide early warning of fire and to protect
you and your family from fire and its related hazards. CAUTION: This alarm will only indicate the presence of carbon monoxide at
the sensor. Carbon monoxide may be present in other areas.
Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless and tasteless poison gas that can be fatal when inhaled. CO inhibits the blood's capacity to
carry oxygen. Periodically review this alarm manual and discuss your CO alarm emergency procedure with all the members of your
family. Never ignore a CO alarm. A true alarm is an indication of potentially dangerous levels of CO. CO alarms are designed to alert
you to the presence of CO before an emergency – before most people would experience symptoms of CO poisoning, giving you time
to resolve the problem calmly. Determine if anyone in the household is experiencing symptoms of CO poisoning. Many cases of
reported CO poisoning indicate that while victims are aware they are not well, they become so disoriented they are unable to save
themselves by either exiting the building or calling for assistance. Also, young children and household pets may be the first affected.
You should take extra precautions to protect high-risk persons from CO exposure because they may experience ill effects from CO at
levels that would not ordinarily affect a healthy adult.
