3. again Battery warning When the battery voltage becomes weak the CO alarm starts to beep approx every 30 sec both LEDs flash and the display shows Lb low battery The CO alarm is now only operable for another 7 days approximately Thus exchange the batteries as soon as possible Green LED If the green operating LED briefly flashes every 30 sec the CO alarm functions properly Red LED The red LED always indicates an alarm signal It flashes when a carbon monoxide alarm is triggered or the device is not operable anymore since the battery capacity has been used up Acoustic alarm signal The flashing of the red LED is always accompanied by an acoustic alarm signal LA When a carbon monoxide alarm is triggered an alarm signal with a noise level of 85 dB is emitted every 5 sec and the red LED flashes After an alarm duration of 4 minutes the alarm sound continues with the same volume but the signal cycle slows down The alarm signal now sounds every minute and not every 5 seconds By pressing the test reset key the alarm can be switched off for several minutes But it will be triggered again afterwards if the CO concentration is still critical The alarm is automatically switched off if there is no danger anymore If the CO alarm emits a beep approx every 30 sec please refer to chapter Battery warning the battery capacity is used up Test function Test the CO alarm once a week Do not expose your ears d
4. battery is emitted immediately exchange the three batteries Prevent your children from playing with the device or the batteries Never open the housing of the CO alarm Present the CO alarm to all residents such that the alarm signal is well know and can be reliably distinguished from other buzzers or door bells installed in the house Explain the meaning of the CO alarm to children and needy persons and tell them what to do in the event of an alarm Exchange the CO alarm three years after its manufacturing at the very latest the date of manufacture is mentioned on the type plate Behavior in the event of an alarm Immediately go outdoors or to a window wide open If necessary alert the other residents as well Call the fire brigades rescue services and follow their instructions Do not enter into the affected area before the CO concentration has reached uncritical values by thoroughly ventilating the affected room Afterwards the alarm is automatically terminated and the device returns again to normal mode 3 Determine the CO source and take remediate action immediately depending on the cause for instance by having the device repaired or the chimney cleaned by a specialist Installation and commissioning Selection of an appropriate installation site For achieving an optimum safety install respectively one CO alarm in each bedroom in all rooms equipped with gas heating stove oven or fireplace as well as in the hal

7. lac quers Uninstall the CO alarm before carrying out renovation or cleaning works using solvents and keep it in a closed plastic bag as long as all work is performed in order to prevent soiling the sensor Battery exchange The batteries are to be exchanged after one year and or immediately when the battery warning sounds Always exchange the three batteries Please use nothing but 1 5 V batteries AA mignon we recommend to use Duracell MN 1500 or Energizer E91 Make sure to insert the new batteries with correct polarity This will be confirmed through a brief beep of the CO alarm Attention If one of the batteries is not inserted correctly the device is not operable New batteries will last for approx 1 year However the lifetime of the batteries can be reduced by frequent function tests or alarm triggering as well as by very high or low ambient temperatures or a high humidity After each battery exchange make sure to check the proper functioning of the CO alarm see test function Hand in used batteries at the corresponding collecting point batteries are not to be thrown into the domestic waste Technical data Battery operation 3 x 1 5 V alkaline AA mignon Calibrated according to EN 50291 Signal volume approx 85 dB 3 m Dimensions 125 mm height 33 mm Lifetime of CO alarm approx 3 years Triggering threshold according to EN 50291 CO concentration in ambient air Alarm triggering after 50 ppm 60 90 minutes
8. lway on every floor If you decide to only install one device choose an appropriate installation position such that a possible alarm can be heard in all bedrooms CO has nearly the same density as air it does not concentrate on the floor but mixes evenly with the air in the room Therefore install the CO alarm as central as possible on a free unobstructed area e g in the middle of the ceiling In rooms with a potential source of hazard install the CO alarm in their proximity at a dis tance of approx 2 3 m The device can also be wall mounted approx at eye level This type of mounting facilitates the maintenance clea ning battery exchange and enables an easy reading of the control units LEDs display However make sure that the distance to the ceiling and the corners of the room is sufficient 20 cm at least In any case the openings of the housing must always remain free and open and may not be covered by curtains furniture or the like The CO alarm should not be mounted in very cold below 5 C or very warm rooms above 40 C as well as in rooms which are very humid or exposed to dust dirt or fat The immediate proximity of fluorescent tubes ventilators or other sources of draft is to be avoided as well Installation and commissioning Remove the mounting plate from the alarm device by slightly turning it counterclockwise Mark the drill holes at the planned mounting position using the mounting plate as drilli
9. ng jig drill the corresponding holes make sure not to damage any lines and fix the mounting plate afterwards by means of the enclosed dowels and screws Remove the insulating strip located between battery and battery contact The CO alarm device emits a beep for confirming its com missioning the red LED briefly lights up and 888 PPM is briefly indicated on the display Turn the CO alarm device clockwise on the mounting plate until it locks in place Check the CO alarm functions by pressing the test reset key how ever when doing so hold the device at arms length for protecting your ears Indications and functions LC display In normal mode the display is switched off However if the elec trochemical sensor detects carbon monoxide the LCD shows the determined CO concentration in ppm parts per million values between 30 ppm and 999 ppm are displayed Memory function with highest level indication If carbon monoxide has been detected during your absence but the CO alarm is already reset to normal mode since any CO conta mination cannot be detected anymore the device stores the de termined CO peak value By pressing the test reset key for approx 5 sec a possibly stored highest level is displayed By pressing the test reset key once again the CO alarm afterwards returns again to normal mode The highest level memory is deleted by pressing the test reset key or by exchanging the battery or when an alarm is triggered
