Refer to instructions for repairs. E LIMITATIONS AND FUNCTIONS • • • • • • • • • • • • • • This combination smoke/carbon monoxide (CO) alarm requires constant 120VAC power to operate properly. THERE ARE TWO BASIC SMOKE ALARM TYPES - IONIZATION AND PHOTOELECTRIC. Ionization smoke alarms (such as this smoke alarm) are your best overall choice for reliability and fast response time, since they quickly sense small "invisible" smoke particles and will also sense larger "visible" smoke particles. Photoelectric smoke alarms may respond more quickly in certain types of fires, for example - slow smoldering fires with large "visible" smoke particles. ALL TYPES OF SMOKE ALARMS HAVE LIMITATIONS. NO TYPE OF SMOKE ALARM CAN SENSE EVERY KIND OF FIRE OR SMOKE EVERY TIME. SMOKE ALARMS can sound an alarm only when smoke reaches their sensors. Smoke may not reach the smoke alarm QUICKLY ENOUGH to ensure safe escape. They do not sense heat, flame or gas (propane). ALL alarms have limitations. This combination smoke/CO alarm is not foolproof and is not warranted to protect lives or property. It is not a substitute for insurance. WARNING - SINCE A SMOKE OR CO ALARM WILL NOT WORK WITHOUT POWER, having an alarm(s) that works from two completely different power sources, such as an AC direct wire with battery backup can give you an extra measure of protection in case of an AC power failure or a dead battery. CO ALARMS are designed to detect carbon monoxide gas from any source of combustion that reaches their sensor. They are NOT designed to detect any other type of gas. USING A SMOKE ALARM IN A SMOKY AREA LIKE A KITCHEN, OR IN A HIGH HUMIDITY AREA NEAR A SHOWER, CAN CAUSE FALSE ALARMS. DO NOT TURN OFF THE AC POWER TO QUIET THE ALARM. A SMOKE ALARM WILL NOT HELP PROTECT YOU IF IT IS NOT POWERED. Properly locate your alarm to avoid nuisance alarms. A SMOKE ALARM MAY NOT ALWAYS WARN YOU ABOUT FIRES CAUSED BY CARELESSNESS AND SAFETY HAZARDS LIKE SMOKING IN BED, VIOLENT EXPLOSIONS, ESCAPING GAS, IMPROPER STORAGE OF FLAMMABLE MATERIALS, OVERLOADED ELECTRICAL CIRCUITS, CHILDREN PLAYING WITH MATCHES, NATURAL CAUSES SUCH AS LIGHTNING, OR ARSON. FIRE PREVENTION IS YOUR BEST SAFEGUARD. SMOKE ALARMS CANNOT DETECT FIRES IF THE SMOKE DOES NOT REACH THEM. Smoke from fires may not reach the sensing chamber and set off the alarm. One unit should be installed inside each bedroom or sleeping area. SMOKE ALARMS MAY NOT DETECT FIRE ON ANOTHER FLOOR OR AREA OF THE HOME. Recommended minimum protection is at least one unit in every sleeping area and every bedroom on every level of your home. Interconnected units may provide earlier warning than stand-alone units since all units alarm when one detects smoke. ALARMS MAY NOT BE HEARD. The alarm horn in this unit meets or exceeds current standards, but it may not be heard if: (1) the unit is located outside a closed or partially closed door; (2) residents recently consumed alcohol or drugs; (3) the alarm is drowned out by noise from stereos, TV's, air conditioners or other appliances or (4) if residents are hearing impaired or sound sleepers. Because it is possible for the alarm to fail at any time, you must test the alarm weekly and replace it every 7 years. SMOKE ALARMS ARE NOT TO BE USED WITH DETECTOR GUARDS UNLESS THE COMBINATION HAS BEEN EVALUATED AND FOUND SUITABLE FOR THAT PURPOSE. CURRENT STUDIES HAVE SHOWN SMOKE ALARMS MAY NOT AWAKEN ALL SLEEPING INDIVIDUALS AND THAT IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF INDIVIDUALS IN THE HOUSEHOLD WHO ARE CAPABLE OF ASSISTING OTHERS TO PROVIDE ASSISTANCE TO THOSE WHO MAY NOT BE AWAKENED BY THE ALARM SOUND OR TO THOSE WHO MAY BE INCAPABLE OF SAFELY EVACUATING THE AREA UNASSISTED. IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION About this Alarm This combination alarm has separate sensors to detect smoke and carbon monoxide (CO). The smoke alarm has priority over the CO alarm. The combination smoke/CO alarm is designed to be used in ordinary indoor locations of single-family households only. The sensitivity of both the smoke and CO sensors and the horn patterns for both warnings, comply with UL standards. This combination smoke/CO alarm can be used as a replacement for all UNIVERSAL Smoke and CO Alarms. This allows the user to easily upgrade from individual smoke or CO alarms to a combination unit. WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT CARBON MONOXIDE (CO) Carbon monoxide (CO) is an insidious poison. It is a colorless, odorless, tasteless gas. It is a cumulative poison. Even low levels of CO have been shown to cause brain and other vital organ damage in unborn infants with no effect on the mother. The following symptoms are related to CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING 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, confusion, fast heart rate. EXTREME EXPOSURE Unconsciousness, convulsions, cardiorespiratory failure, death. Many cases of reported CARBON MO...
