In other words, when your CO Alarm sounds, you must not ignore it! IF THE CO ALARM SOUNDS: 1. Operate the Test/Silence button. 2. Call your emergency services, fire department or 911. Write down the number of your local emergency service here: 3. Immediately move to fresh air—outdoors or by an open door or window. Do a head count to check that all persons are accounted for. Do not reenter the premises, or move away from the open door or window until the emergency services responder has arrived, the premises have been aired out, and your CO Alarm remains in its normal condition. 4. After following steps 1-3, if your CO Alarm reactivates within a 24-hour period, repeat steps 1-3 and call a qualified appliance technician to investigate for sources of CO from fuel-burning equipment and appliances, and inspect for proper operation of this equipment. If problems are identified during this inspection have the equipment serviced immediately. Note any combustion equipment not inspected by the technician, and consult the manufacturers’ instructions, or contact the manufacturers directly, for more information about CO safety and this equipment. Make sure that motor vehicles are not, and have not, been operating in an attached garage or adjacent to the residence.

Disconnecting the Alarm removes your protection! • The Silence Feature is intended to temporarily silence the horn while you identify and correct the problem. • To use the Silence Feature, press the Test/Silence button until the horn is silent. • If the Test/Silence button is pressed while the Alarm is in the silence mode, the alarm will start sounding again. WHEN THE CO ALARM IS SILENCED... The CO Alarm will remain silent for up to 4 minutes. While the Alarm is silenced, it will continue to monitor the air for CO. After 4 minutes, if CO levels remain potentially dangerous the horn will start sounding again. The Silence Feature is intended to temporarily silence the Alarm horn. It will not correct a CO problem. USING THE REMOTE CONTROL TEST/SILENCE FEATURE Using the VOLUME or CHANNEL buttons on most remote controls, you can test or silence this CO Alarm from up to 12 feet (3.6 meters) away. To Test or Silence the Alarm: 1. Make sure you have a clear path between you and the Alarm, free of any obstructions. 2. Point the remote at the front of the Alarm. 3. Press the VOLUME or CHANNEL button for at least 5 seconds. If the Alarm does not respond to your remote control: • You may be standing too far away. • Your remote may not be compatible. • You did not hold the button on your remote for at least 5 seconds. • AC power must be present to Silence the low battery chirp. SILENCING THE LOW BATTERY WARNING This Silence Feature can temporarily quiet the low battery warning “chirp” for up to 8 hours if AC power is present. You can silence the low battery warning “chirp” two ways: 1. Manually: Press the Test/Silence button on the Alarm cover until you see the Green LED flicker, acknowledging the button-press. 2. Using Your Remote Control: Standing no further than 12 feet (3.6 meters) away from the Alarm, aim your IR remote at the Alarm and press the CHANNEL or VOLUME button for at least 3-5 seconds. The display will flash “SILENCE” for 8 hours while the low battery warning “chirp” silence feature is activated. After 8 hours, the low battery “chirp” will resume. The Alarm will continue to operate as long as AC power is supplied. However, replace the battery as soon as possible, to maintain protection in event of a power outage. USING THE PEAK CO MEMORY The CO Memory Feature lets you check the highest level of CO recorded. To check CO Memory: 1. Press the Display button until the peak CO level is displayed. To clear CO Memory: 1. While checking CO memory, press or hold the Display button until “CLEAR” is displayed. 2. Press or hold the Display button until the CO Memory is cleared. NOTE: The highest CO level will be saved, even after an AC power interruption, until you clear it. DO NOT clear the CO Memory reading if you plan to call someone to investigate a CO problem! Clear the CO Memory reading only after the investigator has checked your home. 3 UNDERSTANDING THE LIGHT, HORN, AND DISPLAY PATTERNS Condition LED Horn Display NORMAL AC POWER LED is Green.
