11. Firmly PRESS AND RELEASE THE
RESET/TEST button. See Figure 4. The
alarm should sound a short tone. The amber
SERVICE light will turn on, and the CO alarm
will go through its test cycle. The red LED will
flash, and the alarm will beep four times fol-
lowed by 5 seconds of silence and then
repeat the cycle. After the test cycle, amber
SERVICE light will turn off, and the green
POWER light will remain lighted which means
that the CO alarm is operating properly.
12. If the alarm is interconnected to other CO alarms, press and hold the
RESET/TEST button until the red light turns on. Other interconnected alarms will
also beep four times followed by 5 seconds of silence. The red ALARM light on
other alarms will not light during this test.

do if the alarm sounds. Add the phone numbers of your emergency services
provider and a qualified technician to each label. Place one of the labels in a visi-
ble area next to the alarm, and place the other label near a source of fresh air
which will be used as a gathering place if the alarm sounds.
How to Operate Your CO Alarm
This carbon monoxide alarm has been evaluated by UL and meets the applicable UL
standards and requirements.
This CO alarm has a three light and sound
alarm system:

(Power on/operating)
power.
Service Amber indicator flashing and alarm horn beeping every thirty
(Problem with Alarm)
seconds indicates “Unit Fault.” Press and release the TEST/RESET

(Dangerous CO levels)
and then is quiet for 5 seconds.
Low Battery
The unit will emit a chirp once every 30 seconds when the battery is low
(For COQ6 only)
and needs to be replaced.
When the CO concentration builds to a level that is equal to 70 ppm or greater for
the duration identified within the standard, the following will occur:
• The ALARM light and sound signals will activate. See the “
What To Do If Your Alarm
Sounds
” section of this manual for important action steps to be taken.
• If you wish to press the TEST/RESET button during this time, the alarm will become
quiet for approximately four minutes. The ALARM signals will be reenergized within 4
minutes from the time the reset button is pressed if the concentration of carbon
monoxide surrounding the alarm remains at 70 ppm or greater.
• The alarm will remain silent if the CO concentration has decreased below the alarm
level of the standard. See the “What To Do If Your Alarm Sounds” section of this
manual for important action steps to be taken.
• The alarm will continue for as long as the condition exists.
The alarm will not permanently end its ALARM mode until the concentration of CO
has been reduced to a safe level.
