Carbon monoxide (CO) is an insidious poison. It is a colorless,

odorless and tasteless gas. It is a cumulative poison. Even low

levels of CO have been shown to cause brain and other vital

gan 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, cardio respiratory failure, death.

Many cases of reported CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING

indicate that while victims are aware they are not well, they become

so disoriented they are unable to save themselves by either exiting

the building or calling for assistance. Also, young children and

household pets may be the first affected.

Your CO alarm is designed to detect the toxic CO gas that result

from incomplete combustion, such as those emitted from appliances,

furnaces, fireplaces and auto exhaust.

A CO Alarm is NOT A SUBSTITUTE for other combustible gas,

fire or smoke alarms. This carbon monoxide alarm is designed to

detect carbon monoxide gas from ANY source of combustion.

CAUTION:This alarm will only indicate the presence of carbon

monoxide gas at the sensor. Carbon monoxide gas may be pres-

ent in other areas.

WARNING: This product is intended for use in ordinary indoor

locations of family living units. It is not designed to comply with

Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) commer-

ial or industrial standards. Individuals with medical problems

may consider using warning devices that provide audible and

visual signals for carbon monoxide concentrations under 30 ppm.

ARNING: Activation of this device indicates the pres-

nce of carbon monoxide (CO), which can KILL YOU. If

alarm sounds:

1) Operate reset/silence button;

2) Call your emergency services (__________________) [fire

department or 911];

3) Immediately move to fresh air – outdoors or by an open

door/window. Then, do a head count to check that all persons

are accounted for. Do not reenter the premises nor move away

from the open door/window until the emergency services

responders have arrived, the premises have been aired out, and

your alarm remains in its normal condition.

4) After following steps 1-3, if your alarm reactivates within a

24-hour period, repeat steps 1-3 and call a qualified technician

(_________________) to investigate for sources of CO from fuel

burning equipment and appliances, and inspect for proper oper-

ation of this equipment. If problems are identified during this

inspection, have the equipment serviced immediately. Note any

combustion equipment not inspected by the technician and con-

sult the manufacturers’ instructions or contact the manufactur-

ers directly for more information about CO safety and this

equipment. Make sure that motor vehicles are not and have not

been operating in an attached garage or adjacent to the resi-

dence.

5.1 IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS The 12SIR has been designed

and is warranted to operate for six years.

5.2 The alarm will automatically sense when the level of CO in the air

falls below the danger level. You should stay outside the resi-

dence in fresh air until the alarm is silenced. When the alarm

sounds, do not stand too close to the alarm. The sound pro-

duced by the alarm is loud because it is designed to awaken a

person in an emergency. Prolonged exposure to the alarm at a

close distance may be harmful to your hearing.

This CO alarm can quickly alert you to the presence of CO but it

cannot prevent toxic CO emissions. Please note that there are haz-

ards against which CO detection may not be effective, such as gas

leaks or explosions.

The ultimate responsibility for protection

against toxic CO gas rests solely on you. Installing CO alarms is just

the first step in protecting your family from toxic CO poisoning.

also suggest that you create an ef

fective, comprehensive safety pro

gram as outlined below.

6.1Install CO alarms properly following the instructions in this

manual

6.2

Develop a family escape plan and practice it with your entire

family, especially small children.

– Draw a floor plan of your home/ residence and find two ways to

exit from each room.

There should be one way to get out of each

bedroom without opening the door

– Make sure that all occupants know what the CO alarm signal

means and how they must be prepared to leave the residence by

themselves if necessary

– Decide on a meeting place a safe distance from your house and

make sure all occupants understand where they should go and

wait if there is a dangerous CO condition.

– Conduct CO safety drills at least every 6 months to make sure

that every one, even small children, know what to do in order to

escape safely

– Know where to go to call the Fire Department from outside your

residence.

This unit is designed to detect carbon monoxide (CO) entering its

sensing chamber

. It does not sense combustible gas (such as natural

gas, propane or butane), heat, smoke or flames.

When properly located, installed, and maintained, this CO alarm

is designed to provide early warning of developing poisonous CO

conditions at a reasonable cost.

This alarm monitors the air

, and

when it senses CO, it activates its built-in alarm. It can provide pre

cious time for you and your family to escape from your residence

before CO can seriously injure or kill. However

, such an early

warning is possible only if the alarm is located, installed, and main

tained as specified in the Owner

’

s Manual.
