the numbers on the Digital Display and the
current time.
2. Call your emergency services, re
department or 911. Write down the number
of your local emergency service here:
3. Immediately move to fresh airoutdoors 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,
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 qualied 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 identied 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

Finding the Source of CO
After an Alarm
Because CO may dissipate by the time an
investigator arrives, it may be difcult to locate
the source of CO. See Chapter 5 What You
