Maintenance

In order to maintain the sensitivity of the alarm, dust needs to be removed from the surface on
a regular basis. To dust use a slightly damp cloth, a brush, brush attachment or vacuum
cleaner. Do not use any solvent based cleaner as the sensor is sensitive to all active gas
including chemical cleaners. Always perform a manual test after cleaning to ensure the alarm
is working normally. Also, the battery compartment needs to be checked on a regular basis for
signs of battery acid leakage. Re move battery immediately if any sign of leakage occur.
Clean the compartment with clean tissue/cloth before replacing with new batteries.
Avoid below action to prevent the alarm from damage:
• Do not allow the alarm to come into contact with any coloured or heavy smelling gas as
this will contaminate the sensor and false readings will occur.
• Do not spray aerosols near the alarm such as, air freshener, insect killer, perfume,
hair spray, etc. as this will result in false readings or contamination of the sensor.
• Do not paint over the alarm, always remove alarm from the bracket before painting and
before reinstalling the alarm wait for paint to be fully dry.
• Avoid shock or impact on the alarm, if accidentally dropped check if the battery
connection is still intact and perform a manual test to ensure the alarm is still intact and
working correctly.
• Do not attempt to repair or modify the alarm. Any modification may cause alarm to
malfunction and fail to operate in life threatening situation. Therefore modification and
repair is strictly restricted.
In the event of contamination leave the alarm in fresh air for a minimum of 30 mins to up to
a week to see if it recovers. If readings are still false replace the alarm immediately.
What is carbon monoxide?
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a highly poisonous gas that has no taste, colour or smell.
Carbon monoxide is a cumulative poison meaning long-term exposure to low levels may
cause symptoms.
This alarm is time-weighted - the higher the level of CO, the sooner it will alarm.
What produces CO in the home?
Many appliances can produce deadly CO level s if they are not in fully working order.
Items such as wood burning stoves, gas boilers, gas fires, gas hobs and ovens, oil and coal
burning units, portable gas heaters, blocked flues and chimneys, car fumes from an integral
garage and even barbeques.
This alarm is not a substitute for proper maintenance of your appliances.
