Operation and Testing The Smoke/CO is operating once it is activated and testing is complete. When products of combustion are sensed, the unit sounds a loud 85db pulsating alarm accompanied by the blinking red LED light until the air is cleared. The carbon monoxide (CO) alarm monitors the air for the presence of CO. It will alarm when there are high levels of CO present, and when there are low levels of CO present over a longer period of time. When a CO condition matches either of these situations, the alarm will sound, and be accompanied by the blinking red LED light. The CO sensor meets the alarm response time as follows:

8 At 70 PPM, the unit must alarm within 60-240 minutes. At 150 PPM, the unit must alarm within 10-50 minutes. At 400 PPM, the unit must alarm within 4-15 minutes Testing:

5. Before testing, put the panel into the appropriate mode or notify the central station in order to prevent a response from the central station/fire department. 6. Smoke Test: Press the test/hush button for (3) three seconds, the detector will chirp once, then release. The unit will then blink a red LED every second, while the sounder will sound two T3 cycles. A functional test of the Smoke sensor may also be completed by exposing the sensor to sufficient smoke levels. 7. CO Test: Press the test/hush button for (6) six seconds, the detector will chirp once at 3 seconds and twice at 6 seconds, then release. The unit's LED will then show a red double-blink every (2) two seconds and the sounder will sound (2) two T4 cycles. A functional test of the CO sensor may also be completed by exposing the sensor to CO levels above 100ppm. If the LEDs do not blink and/or if alarm does not sound, the unit must be replaced. Activating and Pairing the Smoke/CO Alarm 1. First set the control panel to pairing mode. 2. To set the Smoke/Co alarm to pairing mode, remove the battery activation tab that protrudes from the back of the Alarm (See Figure 7) by pulling until it is completely out of the battery compartment.

(about 2.5 feet) away from the unit or use ear protection when testing. Weekly testing is required to ensure proper operation. Erratic or low volume sound (or no sound) coming from your alarm may indicate a defective alarm and it should be returned for service. WARNING: DO NOT use an open flame to test your Smoke/CO, you could damage the alarm or ignite combustible materials and start a structure fire. WARNING: To reduce the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning, test Smoke/CO operation when not in use for 10 days or more. CAUTION: The Smoke/CO alarm only indicates the presence of carbon monoxide at the sensor. Carbon monoxide gas may be present in other areas. The following table describes the visual and audible alarm conditions the unit may encounter and illustrates how the unit will indicate normal standby, alarm and error conditions. Figure 8 Aligning and Mounting Smoke Alarm & Alarm Plate After the installation a good link to the panel is displayed when the Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) indicated on the panel is higher than - 70dBm and the Link Quality Indicator

(LQI) is stronger than 250. If the RSSI and LQI values are lower, you must change the location of the detector. Align the Smoke/CO alarm with the mounting plate and rotate clockwise (right) approximately 60 until the unit stops and clicks into place. DO NOT over-tighten. If the unit needs to be re-aligned, rotate the Smoke/CO alarm counterclockwise, remove and rotate to desired alignment. NOTE: The Smoke/CO will mount to the plate in six (6) positions (every 60 degrees). Do not over tighten the Smoke/CO as damage to alarm or mounting surface may occur.

(Gas Furnace) SMOKE/CO LOCATIONS Figure 3. Smoke/CO Locations Locations to Avoid (Cont.) Modern prefabricated homes or fixed mobile homes have been designed and built to be energy efficient. Install Smoke/CO alarms as recommended above. In older mobile homes that are not well insulated compared to present standards, extreme heat or cold can be transferred from the outside to the inside through poorly insulated walls and roof. This may create a thermal barrier which can prevent the smoke from reaching an alarm mounted on the ceiling. In such units, install the Smoke/CO alarm on an inside wall with the top edge of the alarm a minimum of 4 (10 cm) and a maximum of 12 (30.5 cm) below the ceiling. If you are not sure about the insulation in your mobile home, or if you notice that the outer walls and ceiling are either hot or cold compared to the room air temperature, install the Smoke/CO alarm on an inside wall. NFPA 72 (National Fire Protection Association) requires smoke alarms be installed in each sleeping area. WARNING: Test your Smoke/CO operation after mobile home has been in storage or unoccupied and at least once a week during use. The Smoke/CO is now activated! After installation/activation, test your alarm as described in Operation and Testing section. Activating and Pairing the Smoke/CO Alarm (Cont.) WARNING: Failure to properly install and activate this alarm will prevent proper operation and will prevent its response to fire hazards.

Cigarette smoke will not normally cause the unit to alarm, unless the smoke is blown directly into the alarm. Combustion particles from cooking may set off the alarm if it is located too close to a cooking appliance. Large quantities of combustible particles are generated from spills or when broiling. Using the fan on a range hood which vents to the outside (non-recirculating type) will also help remove these combustible products from the kitchen. If the alarm does sound the smoke alarm pattern of (3) three long beeps, check for fires first. If a fire is discovered, get out and call the fire department. If no fire is present, check to see if one of the reasons listed in Locations to avoid may have caused the alarm. INSTR,INSTL, C-SMKTCO1-B - P/N 10015389 X14 - INK: BLACK - MATERIAL: 16 LB.

11 Hush Control The hush feature has the capability of temporarily desensitizing the alarm circuit for approximately (6) six minutes. This feature is to be used only when a known alarm condition, such as smoke from cooking, activates the alarm. The smoke alarm is desensitized by pushing the Test/Hush button on the smoke alarm cover. If the smoke is not too dense, the alarm will silence immediately and the red LED blinks every (1) one second. This indicates that the alarm is in a temporarily desensitized condition. The smoke alarm will automatically reset after approximately 10 minutes and sound the alarm if particles of combustion are still present. The hush feature can be used repeatedly until the air has been cleared of the condition causing the alarm. Pushing the Test/Hush button on the alarm will end the temporarily desensitized period. If the smoke is not too dense, after ten to fifteen minutes the alarm will return to normal operation. NOTE: Dense smoke will override the hush feature and sound a continuous alarm. CAUTION: Before using the alarm hush feature, identify the source of the smoke and be certain safe conditions exist. Battery Replacement Low battery: This alarm is equipped with a low battery monitor circuit which will cause the alarm to produce a single chirp approximately every 45 seconds and blink the amber LED every 15 seconds, for a minimum of (7) seven days should the battery become low. WARNING Use only the type of batteries specified: Two GP CR123A or Duracell DL123A Before replacing the batteries, put the panel into the appropriate mode so the central station is not notified in order to prevent unwanted alarms.

What to do when the Alarm Sounds SMOKE/CO ACTIVATION Carbon monoxide (CO) alarm pattern is four quick beeps repeating every 5.4 seconds. After initial four minutes of alarm the pattern many change to four quick beeps repeating once every minute. WARNING: Carbon monoxide alarm activation indicates the presence of Carbon Monoxide

(CO) at high concentrations which can kill you. 1. IMMEDIATELY MOVE TO FRESH AIR - OUTDOORS OR BY AN OPEN DOOR/

WINDOW. Do a head count to check that all persons are accounted for. Do not reenter 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. 2. Call your emergency services (Fire Department or 911). 3. After following steps 1-2, if the alarm reactivates within a 24 hour period, repeat steps 1-2 and call a qualified appliance technician to investigate sources of CO from fuel burning equipment and appliances, and to inspect for proper operation of equipment. 13 What To Do When the Alarm Sounds (Cont.) 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 manufacturer directly for more information about CO safety and the equipment. Make sure that motor vehicles are not, or have not been, operating in a garage attached or adjacent to the residence. Never restart the source of a CO problem until it has been corrected. Never ignore the sound of the alarm!

If the unit is sounding, pressing the Test/Hush button will terminate the sounder. If the CO condition that caused the alarm in the first place continues: the unit will activate in alarm mode. GENERAL CARBON MONOXIDE (CO) INFORMATION Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless poison gas that can be fatal when inhaled. CO inhibits the blood's capacity to carry oxygen. POSSIBLE SOURCES OF CARBON MONOXIDE Inside your home, appliances used for heating and cooking are the most likely sources of CO. Vehicles running in attached garages can also produce dangerous levels of CO. CO can be produced when burning any fossil fuel: gasoline, propane, natural gas, oil and wood. It can be produced by any fuel-burning appliance that is malfunctioning, improperly installed, or not ventilated correctly. Possible sources include furnaces, gas ranges/stoves, gas clothes dryers, water heaters, portable fuel burning space heaters, fireplaces, wood-burning stoves and certain swimming pool heaters. Blocked chimneys or flues, back drafting and changes in air pressure, corroded or disconnected vent pipes, or a loose or cracked furnace exchanger can also release CO into your building. Vehicles and other combustion engines running in an attached garage and using a charcoal/gas grill or hibachi in an enclosed area are all possible sources of CO. The following conditions can result in transient CO situations:

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 15 CO Poisoning Initial carbon monoxide poisoning symptoms are similar to the flu with no fever and can include dizziness, severe headaches, nausea, vomiting and disorientation. Everyone is susceptible but experts agree that unborn babies, pregnant women, senior citizens and people with heart or respiratory problems are especially vulnerable. If symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning are experienced seek medical attention immediately. CO poisoning can be determined by a carboxyhemoglobin test. Symptoms The following symptoms are related to CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING and should be discussed with ALL members of the household:

1. Mild Exposure: Slight headache, nausea, vomiting, fatigue (often described as Flu-

like symptoms). 2. Medium Exposure: Severe throbbing headache, drowsiness, confusion, fast heart rate. 3. Extreme Exposure: Unconsciousness, convulsions, cardio respiratory failure and death. The above levels of exposure relate to healthy adults. Levels differ for those at high risk. Exposure to high levels of carbon monoxide can be fatal or cause permanent damage and disabilities. Many cases of reported carbon monoxide poisoning indicate that while victims are aware they are not feeling 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 effected. Familiarization with the effects of each level is important. 18 Product Features and Specifications:

Know how to do Stop, Drop and Roll if clothes catch on fire, and how to crawl low under smoke. Install and maintain fire extinguishers on every level of the home and in the kitchen, basement and garage. NFPA (National Fire Prevention Association) For your information, the National Fire Protection Associations Standard 72, reads as follows:

Required Detection. Where required by applicable laws, codes, or standards for a specific type of occupancy, approved single-and-multiple-station smoke alarms shall be installed as follows: In all sleeping rooms and guest rooms, outside of each separate dwelling unit sleeping area, within 21 ft (6.4 m) of any door to a sleeping room, the distance measured along a path of travel, on every level of a dwelling unit, including basements, on every level of a residential Cleaning Your Smoke/CO Alarm Your Smoke/CO Should be Cleaned at Least Once a Year 16 You can clean the interior of your Smoke/CO (sensing chamber) by using compressed air or a vacuum cleaner hose and blowing or vacuuming through the openings around the perimeter of the alarm. The outside of the Smoke/CO alarm can be wiped with a damp cloth. Use only water to dampen the cloth, use of detergents or cleaners could damage the Smoke/CO. After cleaning, test your Smoke/CO by using the test button. If cleaning does not restore the Smoke/CO to normal operation, the Smoke/CO should be replaced. Never use detergent or other solvents to clean the unit. Avoid spraying air freshener, hair spray, or other aerosols near the alarm. Do not paint the unit. Paint will seal the vents and interfere with the sensors ability to detect smoke and CO. Never attempt to disassemble the unit or clean inside. This action will void your warranty. The following substances can affect the CO sensor and may cause false readings and damage to the sensor: Methane, propane, isobutane, iso-propanol, ethyl acetate, hydrogen sulfide, sulfide dioxides, alcohol based products, paints, thinner, solvents, adhesives, hair spray, after shave, perfume, and some cleaning agents. Move the Smoke/CO and place in another location prior to performing any of the following:

Staining or stripping wood floors or furniture Painting 19 board and care occupancy (small facility), including basements and excluding crawl spaces and unfinished attics, in the living area(s) of a residential board and care occupancy. Smoke DetectionAre more smoke alarms Desireable?

The required number of smoke alarms might not provide reliable early warning protection for those areas separated by a door from the areas protected by the required smoke alarms. For this reason, it is recommended that the householder consider the use of additional smoke alarms for those areas for increased protection. The additional areas include the basement, bedrooms, dining room, furnace room, utility room, and hallways not protected by the required smoke alarms. The installation of smoke alarms in attics (finished or unfinished), garages, or within (6 ) six feet of a heating or cooking appliance is not normally recommended, as these locations occasionally experience conditions that can result in improper operation. California State Fire Marshall Early warning fire detection is best achieved by the installation of fire detection equipment in all rooms and areas of the household as follows: A smoke alarm installed in each separate sleeping area (in the vicinity, but outside the bedrooms), heat or smoke detectors in the living rooms, dining rooms, bedrooms, kitchens, hallways, attics, furnace rooms, closets, utility and storage rooms, basements and attached garages. Cleaning Your Smoke/CO Alarm (Cont.) Wall papering Using adhesives Storing the unit in a plastic bag during any of the above projects will protect the sensors from damage. When household cleaning supplies or similar contaminates are used, the area must be well ventilated WARNING: Reinstall the Smoke/CO as soon as possible to assure continuous protection. Good Safety Habits DEVELOP AND PRACTICE A PLAN OF ESCAPE Prepare and practice a home escape plan twice a year, including drills at night. Know two ways out of every room (door & window) and identify a meeting place outside the home where everyone will gather once they have exited the residence. When two people have reached the meeting place, one should leave to call 911 while the second person stays to account for additional family members. Establish a rule that once youre out, you never reenter under any circumstance!

Make a floor plan indicating all doors and windows and at least two (2) escape routes from each room. Second story windows may need a rope or chain ladder. Have a family meeting and discuss your escape plan, showing everyone what to do in case of fire and where to meet after they leave the house. FCC This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules.

The smoke alarm takes precedence when both smoke and carbon monoxide are present. Alert small children in the home as well as anyone else that might have difficulty recognizing the importance of the alarm sounding or that might have difficulty leaving the area without help. Leave immediately by your escape plan. Every second counts, so dont waste time getting dressed or picking up valuables. In leaving, dont open any inside door without first feeling its surface. If hot, or if you see smoke seeping through cracks, dont open that door! Instead, use your alternate exit. If the inside of the door is cool, place your shoulder against it, open it slightly and be ready to slam it shut if heat and smoke rush in. Stay close to the floor if the air is smoky. Breathe shallowly through a cloth, wet if possible. Once outside, go to your selected meeting place and make sure everyone is there. Call the fire department from your neighbors home - not from yours! Dont return to your home until the fire officials say that it is safe to do so. There are situations where a smoke alarm may not be effective to protect against fire as stated in the NFPA Standard 72. For instance:

GENERAL CARBON MONOXIDE (CO) INFORMATION (CONT.) burning appliances competing for limited internal air, vent pipe connections vibrating loose from clothes dryers, furnaces, or water heaters, obstructions in, or unconventional, vent pipe designs which can amplify the above situations, extended operation of unvented fuel-burning devices (range, oven, fireplace, etc.), temperature inversions which can trap exhaust gases near the ground, car idling in an open or closed attached garage, or near a home. CO SAFETY TIPS Every year, have the heating system, vents, chimney and flue inspected and cleaned by a qualified technician. Always install appliances according to manufacturers instructions and adhere to local building codes. Most appliances should be installed by professionals and inspected after installation. Regularly examine vents and chimneys for improper connections, visible rust, or stains, and check for cracks in furnace heat exchangers. Verify that the color of flame is blue on pilot lights and burners. A yellow or orange flame is a sign that the fuel is not burning completely and may be releasing CO. Teach all household members what the alarm sounds like and how to respond. Fire Departments, most utility companies and HVAC contractors will perform CO inspections, some may charge for this service. Its advisable to inquire about any applicable fees prior to having the service performed. The manufacturer of this product will not pay for, or reimburse the owner or user of this product, for any repair or dispatch calls related to the alarm sounding. Individuals with medical problems should consider using detection devices with improved COHb level sensitivity. Good Safety Habits (Cont.) Ensure that small children hear the alarm and wake when it sounds. They must wake up in order to execute the escape plan. Practice allows all occupants to test your plan before an emergency. You may not be able to reach your children. It is important they know what to do. Familiarize everyone with the sound of the smoke/CO alarm and train them to leave your home when they hear it. Current studies have shown Smoke/CO alarms may not awaken all sleeping individuals, and that it is the responsibility of individuals in the household that are capable of assisting others to provide assistance to those who may not be awakened by the alarm sound, or to those who may be incapable of safely evacuating the area unassisted. Install and maintain fire extinguishers on every level of the home and in the kitchen, basement and garage. Know how to use a fire extinguisher prior to an emergency. This alarm detects products of combustion using photoelectric technology and carbon monoxide using an electrochemical cell. Many times throughout this Users Guide, Carbon Monoxide will be referred to as CO. This alarm is acceptable for use near kitchens or cooking areas but can be used in all other residential applications where a smoke or CO alarm is required. After ten (10) years of cumulative power up, this unit will display an amber LED that blinks five times every 60 seconds, with a sounder chirp every 45 seconds. This is an "operational end of life" feature which will indicate that it is time to physically remove and replace the alarm.
