Plastic Anchors (2) 1” Screws (2) Activation of your CO alarm indicates the presence of carbon monoxide gas (CO) which can KILL YOU.General Warnings About Carbon Monoxide Gas WARNING If your CO alarm signal sounds with the 4-beep pattern: This carbon monoxide alarm is designed to detect carbon monoxide gas from ANY source of combustion. It is NOT designed to detect smoke, or any other gas types. The alarm also is equipped with Supplemental Temperature Sensing. This will activate the alarm if the temperature reaches either 135°F or the temperature rises by more than 20°F in a minute or less.The CO alarm becomes susceptible to nuisance alarms when subject to prolonged exposure to certain cleaning supplies, hairsprays and perfume products. Care should be taken to install the CO alarm in spaces that are well ventilated where these types of items are stored or used. Self Adhesive Labels (2) 1. Press and release the Silence Button.2. Call your emergency services ( ) ____ - ______, fire department or 911. 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 re-enter the premises nor move away from the open door/window until the emergency services responders have arrived, the premises have been aired out, and your alarm remains in its normal condition. 4. After following steps 1-3, if your 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 equipme…
