Overview
This carbon monoxide (CO) alarm is a detection and alarm device which gives o an
audible and visual warning when it detects the presence of carbon monoxide at certain
levels over time. The digital display on the alarm shows the current CO reading, the
ambient temperature (while CO is under 20ppm), alarm status, and a low battery icon as
appropriate.
Carbon monoxide is a colourless, odourless, tasteless gas produced during inecient or
incomplete burning of fuels such as wood, coal, oil, and gas. The human body is unable
to sense carbon monoxide in any way but it replaces oxygen in the blood when breathed
in, preventing the proper supply of oxygen throughout the body and brain. Depending on
the concentration and exposure time, CO can kill in minutes or cause permanent damage
and disabilities.
This user guide contains important information on starting operation and using the devise.
Store this user guide in a safe place for future reference. These instructions are a part of
this product – bear this in mind if you pass on this product to others.
Please take a few minutes to thoroughly read the user’s guide and familiarise yourself and
your family with its operation.

Suitability
This carbon monoxide alarm is designed for indoor home use ONLY.
• DO NOT expose to rain or moisture
• DO NOT knock or drop the detector
• DO NOT open or tamper with the alarm as this could cause malfunction
It is NOT suitable for use when traveling or camping, installing in caravans, motorhomes,
or boats.
The alarm will not protect against the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning when the battery
has drained.
Installation of the alarm should not be used as a substitute for proper installation, use
and maintenance of fuel burning appliances including appropriate ventilation and exhaust
systems.
This CO alarm is designed to detect carbon monoxide gas from any source of
combustion. It is not designed to detect any other gas.
6This apparatus is not designed to protect individuals from the acute or chronic eects of
carbon monoxide exposure. It will not fully safeguard individuals at special risk or with
specic medical conditions. If in doubt, consult a medical practitioner.
Carbon Monoxide (CO) Information
Carbon monoxide is a colourless, odourless, tasteless gas produced during inecient or
incomplete burning of fuels such as wood, coal, oil, and gas. The most common sources
of CO are malfunctioning appliances used for heating and cooking, vehicles running in
an attached garage, blocked chimneys or ues, portable fuel burning heaters, replaces,
fuel-powered tools, and operating a grill in an enclosed space.
The human body is unable to sense carbon monoxide in any way but the gas replaces
oxygen in the blood when breathed in, preventing the proper supply of oxygen throughout
the body and brain. Depending on the concentration and exposure time, CO can kill in
minutes or cause permanent damage and disabilities.
Indications of carbon monoxide poisoning include symptoms similar to the u, but with no
fever. Other symptoms include dizziness, fatigue, weakness, headache, nausea, vomiting,
sleepiness and confusion. Everyone is susceptible to the danger of CO, but experts agree
that unborn babies, small children, pregnant women, senior citizens and people with heart
or respiratory problems are at the highest risk of serious injury or even death.
7
The following are common symptoms related to carbon monoxide poisoning, based on
healthy adults, and should be discussed with all members of the household:
• Mild Exposure: Slight headache, nausea, vomiting, fatigue (often described as “Flu-
like” symptoms).
• Medium Exposure: Severe throbbing headache, drowsiness, fast heat rate.
• Extreme Exposure: Unconsciousness, cardiorespiratory failure, death.
The dangers of carbon monoxide poisoning vary with the concentration of CO in the
air and the duration of exposure. As a result of this, the Standard EN 50291-1:2018
governing domestic carbon monoxide alarms denes the following alarm response
requirements:
From 30ppm No alarm before 120 minutes
From 50ppm Alarm triggered between 60 to 90 minutes
From 100ppm Alarm triggered between 10 to 40 minutes
From 300ppm Alarm triggered in less than 3 minutes
8Digital Display
This carbon monoxide alarm is equipped with an LCD digital display to provide advanced
feedback including current carbon monoxide readings, silence status, and low battery
status. There is also a temperature sensor feature for comfort and convenience.
When batteries are installed and the device powers up, the display will activate all
segments and icons for 4 seconds before resetting to show a countdown in conjunction
with LED indicator lights ashing as in the Status Indicators section of this manual. Once
the countdown reaches zero, the alarm will be in normal operation.
Under normal operation, the display will alternate between showing the current CO
reading and the temperature every 40 seconds. Carbon monoxide levels are displayed
between 20 and 999ppm, with anything under 20ppm showing as 0. The temperature will
not be displayed as long as the CO level is at 20ppm or above.

Alarm Memory
If the alarm detects dangerous levels of carbon monoxide which then drop below the
activation threshold without the alarm being manually silenced, the alarm will remember
this for up to 48 hours and alert the user. This is especially useful for identifying that a fuel
burning appliance which leaks CO intermittently while the building is unoccupied is faulty
and gives o CO. Upon return from work or school, the occupants would know that the
alarm had been activated so they can have their appliances inspected.
The screen will display “Al”, as long as the current CO level is below 20ppm, and the red
LED alarm indicator will ash every 40 seconds. The alarm will fully reset back to normal
standby operation after 48 hours, or after the TEST/SILENCE button is pressed.
10 Alarm Silence Mode
WARNING: Before silencing an active alarm, it should be assumed that the alarm is due
to dangerous levels of carbon monoxide and the dwelling should be evacuated.
When in alarm mode, pressing the TEST/SILENCE button will pause the alarm sound for
approximately 10 minutes. The red LED will continue to ash as in alarm mode to indicate
that the alarm has been silenced.
The alarm will automatically reset after approximately 10 minutes. If after this period it is
still detecting carbon monoxide at 50ppm or greater then the alarm will sound again. The
alarm silence mode can NOT be repeated.
NOTE: The audible alarm signal cannot be silenced if the alarm detects CO concentration
above 200 ppm.
