BASIC SAFETY INFORMA
TION
• Dangers, Warnings, and Cautions alert you to important
operating instr
uctions or to potentially hazardous situations.
Pay special attention to these items.
•
This Smoke/CO Alarm is approved for use in single-family
r
esidences.
•
This combination Smoke/Carbon Monoxide Alarm has two
separate alarms. The CO Alarm is not designed to detect fire
or any other gas. It will only indicate the pr
esence of carbon
monoxide gas at the sensor. Carbon monoxide gas may be
present in other areas. The Smoke Alarm will only indicate the
pr
esence of smoke that reaches the sensor. The Smoke Alarm
is not designed to sense gas, heat or flames.
• This Smoke/CO Alarm cannot operate without working
batteries. Removing the batteries for any reason, or failing to
replace the batteries at the end of their service life, removes
your protection.
• NEVER ignore any alarm. See “If Your Smoke/CO Alarm
Sounds” for mor
e information on how to respond to an alarm.
Failur
e to respond can result in injury or death.
• The Silence Features are for your convenience only and will
not correct a problem. See "Using the Silence Features" for
details. Always check your home for a potential problem after
any alarm. Failure to do so can result in injury or death.
• Test this Smoke/CO Alarm once a week. If the Alarm ever fails
to test correctly, have it replaced immediately! If the Alarm is
not working properly, it cannot alert you to a problem.
• This product is intended for use in ordinary indoor locations
of family living units. It is not designed to measure CO levels
in compliance with Occupational Safety and Health
Administration (OSHA) commercial or industrial standards.
Individuals with medical conditions that may make them more
sensitive to carbon monoxide may consider using warning
devices which provide audible and visual signals for carbon
monoxide concentrations under 30 ppm. For additional
information on carbon monoxide and your medical condition
contact your physician.
