10. WHAT TO DO WHEN THE ALARM SOUNDS
If alarm signal sounds:
1) Operate
TEST/RESET/MUTE
button;
2) Call your emergency services (tel. no.
_______________________________
)
[fire department or 911];
3) Immediately move to fresh air - outdoors 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/window until the emergency
services responders have arrived, the premises have been aired out, and
the monitor remains in its normal condition.
4) After following steps 1- 3, if the alarm reactivates within a 24 hour period,
repeat steps 1-3 and call a qualified appliance technician:
(telephone no.
___________________________________________________
)
to investigate for sources of CO from fuel burning equipment and
appliances, and inspect for proper operation of this equipment. 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
manufacturers directly, for more information about CO safety and this
equipment. Make sure that motor vehicles are not, and have not been,
operating in an attached garage or adjacent to the residence or facility.
MANUAL RESET:
You can temporarily silence an audible alarm signal by pressing the
TEST/RESET/MUTE
button. The
ALARM
red LED will flash 4 times and display will read
for 5 seconds. The LCD will then continue to display the current CO level detected
from 5 to 500 ppm, and
ALARM
red LED will flash 4 times every minute. The audible
alarm signal will be automatically reactivated within 12 hours if a CO level of 15-24 ppm
continues to be detected, or within 5 minutes if 25 ppm or more. Do not wait to see if the
alarm is reactivated; follow above instructions immediately. The alarm mute feature is
disabled at CO levels of 100 PPM or more.
AUTOMATIC RESET:
If a CO alarm activation is not manually reset, the horn will
sound for at least 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, the alarm horn will automatically reset
itself and return to normal operation if the CO level drops below 10 PPM. The
ALARM
red LED will not automatically reset, and must be manually cancelled or suspended so
that a supervisor, caretaker or parent will be alerted that an alarm was activated earlier.
