Plug-In Carbon Monoxide Alarm
AC Powered with Sealed Lithium Battery Backup,
Digital Display, and Escape / Night Light
Description
The Kidde 900-0284 AC Powered, Plug-in carbon monoxide
alarm with sealed lithium battery backup and digital display is
an easy to install unit that provides reliable protection against
the dangers of carbon monoxide. The 10-year* sealed battery
offers protection during power outages, prevents unwarranted
removal of the battery, and eliminates the need for annual
battery replacement.
The alarm includes both night light and escape light features.
The brightness of the night light can be adjusted to ten dif-
ferent levels by pushing the peak level button, or turned off if
needed. The ambient light sensor will automatically turn the
night light on or off depending on ambient light conditions,
when connected to AC power.
The escape light feature will brightly illuminate during alarm
mode, helping those present to exit during dark conditions and
when electrical power outages occur.
The digital display feature adds an advanced level of protection
showing CO levels in PPM allowing you to see if levels change.
This display uses LED technology which allows the CO levels to
be visible in dark conditions and further distances than other
alarms that use less visible LCD components. The display will
automatically adjust brightness level to adapt to ambient light
conditions, which offers both a brighter display during lighted
environments and dims to provide a visible, but softer contrast
at night. The display deactivates when AC power is removed
to conserve battery life.
The Kidde 900-0284 has a 10-year operational life, which pro-
vides a 40% longer lifespan than other plug-in CO alarms. The
alarm includes a 10-year limited warranty, and is listed by UL
to the UL2034 Standard.
