Maintenance
Clean the outside housing by occasionally wiping with a clean damp cloth. Do not
use any cleaning agents, bleaches, detergents or polishes, including those in
aerosol cans. Avoid spraying air fresheners, hair spray, paint or other aerosols near
the CO Alarm. Do not place air fresheners near the unit.
Use the narrow nozzle of a vacuum cleaner to remove fluff and other contamination
from the cover slots and gas entry holes.
Caution: Do not paint the CO Alarm.
Remove the CO Alarm when decorating. Do not allow water or dust to contaminate
the Alarm.
Warning: Do not open or tamper with the CO Alarm. There are no user serviceable
parts inside and this can damage the Alarm.
Battery Replacement
If the alarm indicates a yellow flash with a single beep or the low battery icon is
displayed on display alarms remove the Alarm from the mounting plate, remove the
battery cover (see figure 8) and replace the
batteries. Use only Duracell Alkaline MN2400BK
AAA size batteries (from a local retailer).
Insert the new batteries with the orientation shown
on the base. Replace the battery cover and carefully
line up the Alarm on the base, gently press home &
twist on. This connects the batteries. The red, amber
& green lights will immediately flash in sequence to
show the batteries are connected properly. In
addition, the icons on the LCD display on the Display
models will also light up. After 15 seconds press the
Test button to ensure that the Alarm works.
