fied during this inspection have the equipment serviced immediately. Note
any combustion equipment not inspected by the technician, and consult

IF YOUR GAS/CO ALARM SOUNDS
WHAT TO DO IF CARBON MONOXIDE IS DETECTED
Actuation of your CO Alarm indicates the presence of carbon monoxide
(CO) which can kill you. In other words, when your CO Alarm sounds, you
must not ignore it!
TEST THE ALARM
1.
Make sure the Alarm is receiving AC power. Under normal operation, the
Gr
een indicator light will shine continuously. If the Green power indicator
light does not light, recheck connections. If connections are correct and
the Gr
een power indicator still does not light, the unit should be replaced
immediately
.
2. Press and hold the test button until the alarm sounds. You will hear the
signal that indicates the pr
esence of explosive gas followed by the signal
for carbon monoxide.
When testing the Alarm, have someone else check that the Alarm can be
heard easily from the sleeping areas. The unit should be located where it
can wake you if it alarms at night.
