We recommend that you install a detector on each level of your home. Alarm sounder When choosing your installation locations, make sure you can hear the detector from all sleeping areas. If you install only one CO detector in your home, install it near bedrooms, not in the basement or furnace room. WARNING: This detector should be installed by a certified technician. Place the detector out of reach of children. Under no circumstances should children be allowed to handle the CO detector. Attention: Please take a few minutes to thoroughly read this user guide which should be saved for future reference and passed on to any subsequent owner. Figure 2: Recommended locations Description Dining The 263A-CO-OEM-ATT01 wireless carbon monoxide (CO) detector monitors the levels of CO gas and gives early warning when potentially dangerous levels exist. It does not detect fire, smoke, or any other gas. If a dangerous concentration of CO is detected by the patented and field-proven electrochemical sensor, an LED indicator illuminates and an internal siren is activated in temporal 4 pattern. The CO detector also transmits an alarm signal to the control panel within 15 seconds of detecting dangerous concentration of CO gas. The control panel activates its internal siren and reports the detector condition to the central monitoring station. The CO detector also detects low battery, wall tamper, and detector end-of-life. These trouble codes are transmitted to the control panel. The detector automatically resets when CO is no longer detected.

Normal operation Maintenance tips To keep your detector in good working order: • • • • • Perform a CO detector test once a week (see “Normal CO detector test” on page 3). Vacuum the detector cover once a month to remove accumulated dust. Never use detergents or solvents to clean the detector. Chemicals can permanently damage or temporarily contaminate the detector. Avoid spraying air fresheners, hair spray, paint, or other aerosols near the detector. Do not paint the detector. Paint will seal the vents and interfere with proper sensor operation. Move the CO detector to a remote location, to prevent possible damage or contamination of the sensor, prior to performing any of the following: 6/8 • • Press Test/Hush button and release. This will silence the low battery audible chirp between 8 and 11 hours allowing for a more convenient time to replace the batteries. Staining or stripping floors or furniture, painting or wallpapering. Using aerosols or adhesives. WARNING: Reinstall the CO detector as soon as possible to assure continuous protection. The following is a list of substances that at high levels can damage the CO sensor or cause temporary readings that are not CO readings: Ethylene, ethanol, alcohol, iso-propanol, benzene, toluene, ethyl acetate, hydrogen, hydrogen sulfide, and sulfur dioxide. Also most aerosol sprays, alcohol-based products, paint, thinner, solvent, adhesive, hair spray, after shave, perfume, auto exhaust (cold start), and some cleaning agents. 2533-7222-00 Information about carbon monoxide: 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 detector user guide and discuss your CO Alarm emergency procedure with all members of your family. Never ignore a CO Alarm. A true alarm is an indication of potentially dangerous levels of CO. CO detectors 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 either by 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. Symptoms of CO poisoning The following common symptoms are related to CO poisoning and should be discussed with ALL members of the household: • Mild exposure = Slight headache, nausea, vomiting, fatigue (often described as “flu-like” symptoms). • Medium exposure = Severe throbbing headache, drowsiness, confusion, fast heart rate. • Extreme exposure = Unconsciousness, convulsions, cardio-respiratory failure, death. If you experience even mild symptoms of CO poisoning, consult your doctor immediately. Conditions that can produce carbon monoxide Excessive spillage or reverse venting of fuel burning appliances caused by: • Outdoor ambient conditions such as wind direction and/or velocity, including high gusts of wind; heavy air in the vent pipes (cold/humid air with extended periods between cycles). • Negative pressure differential resulting from the use of exhaust fans. • Simultaneous operation of several fuel burning appliances competing for limited internal air. • Vent pipe connection vibrating loose from clothes dryers, furnaces, or water heaters. • Obstructions in or unconventional vent pipe designs which amplify the above situations. • Extended operation of unvented fuel burning devices (range, oven, fireplace, etc.). • Temperature inversions which can trap exhaust gasses near the ground. 2533-7222-00 • Car idling What CO detectors can and cannot do CO Alarms provide early warning of the presence of CO, usually before a healthy adult would experience symptoms. This early warning is possible however, only if your CO detector is located, installed, and maintained as described in this user guide. Because carbon monoxide is a cumulative poison, long-term exposures to low levels may cause symptoms, as well as short-term exposures to high levels. This unit has a timeweighted alarm; the higher the level of CO present, the sooner the alarm will be triggered. This CO detector can only warn you of the presence of CO. It does not prevent CO from occurring, nor can it solve an existing CO problem. If your unit has alarmed and you’ve provided ventilation by leaving your windows and doors open, the CO buildup may have dissipated by the time help responds. Although your problem may appear to be temporarily solved, it is crucial that the source of the CO is determined and that the appropriate repairs are made. CO detectors have limitation. Like any other electronic device, CO detectors are not fool-proof. CO detectors have a limited operational life. You must test your CO detector weekly, because it could fail to operate at any time. If your CO detector fails to test properly, or if its self-diagnostic test reveals a malfunction, immediately have the unit replaced. This detector will not monitor CO levels while in a trouble condition. Caution: This CO detector can only sense CO that reaches the unit’s sensor. It is possible that CO may be present in other areas without reaching the detector. The rate and ability with which CO reaches the detector may be affected by: • • • • Doors or other obstructions. Fresh air from a vent, an open window, or other source. Fresh air from a vent, an open window, or other source. CO being present on one level of the home and not reaching a CO detector installed on a different level. (For example, CO in the basement may not reach a detector on the second level, near the bedrooms). For these reasons, we recommend you provide complete coverage by placing a CO Detector on every level of the home. CO Detectors should not be used to detect the presence of natural gas (methane), propane, butane, or other combustible fuels. Instruct children never to touch or otherwise interfere with the alarm. Warn children of the dangers of CO poisoning . Important warning statements This CO detector is designed to detect carbon monoxide from ANY source of combustion. It is NOT designed to detect smoke, fire, or any other gas. 7/8 WARNING: Carbon Monoxide detectors are not smoke alarms. This carbon monoxide detector is not a substitute for installing and maintaining an appropriate number of smoke alarms in your home. This CO Detector 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. 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), commercial, or industrial standards. It is not suitable for installation in hazardous locations as defined in the National Electric Code. The installation of this device should not be used as a substitute for proper installation, use and maintenance of fuel burning appliances, including appropriate ventilation and exhaust systems. It does not prevent CO from occurring, nor can it solve an existing CO problem.
