GUARANTEE INFORMATION
Fuel-burning appliances like: portable heater, gas or wood burning fireplace,
gas kitchen range or cooktop, gas clothes dryer.
Damaged or insufficient venting: corroded or disconnected water heater
v
ent pipe, leaking chimney pipe or flue, or cracked heat exchanger, blocked
o
r clogged chimney opening.
I
mproper use of appliance/device:
o
perating a barbecue grill or vehicle in
an enclosed area (like a garage or screened porch).
T
ransient CO Problems:
“
transient” or on-again-off-again CO problems can
be caused by outdoor conditions and other special circumstances.
The following conditions can result in transient CO situations:
1
.Excessive spillage or reverse venting of fuel appliances caused by outdoor
conditions such as:
• Wind direction and/or velocity, including high, gusty winds. Heavy air in
t
he vent pipes (cold/humid air with extended periods between cycles).
• Negative pressure differential resulting from the use of exhaust fans.
• Several appliances running at the same time competing for limited
fresh air.
• Vent pipe connections vibrating loose from clothes dryers, furnaces, or
w
ater heaters.
• Obstructions in or unconventional vent pipe designs which can amplify
t
he above situations.
2.Extended operation of unvented fuel burning devices (range, oven,
fireplace).
3
.Temperature inversions, which can trap exhaust close to the ground.
4
.Car idling in an open or closed attached garage, or near a home.
These conditions are dangerous because they can trap exhaust in your
h
ome. Since these conditions can come and go, they are also hard to
recreate during a CO investigation.
P
OTENTIAL SOURCES OF CO IN THE HOME
WHAT LEVELS OF CO CAUSE AN ALARM?
T
echnical information
Your alarm utilizes a proprietary Electronic Sensing Technology that permits
t
he unit to vary the exposure time before the alarm sounds based on carbon
monoxide concentrations.
T
he carbon monoxide concentrations and time standards for the alarms
ar
e as follows:
CO Alarms are designed to alarm before there is an immediate life threat.
S
ince you cannot see or smell CO, never assume it’s not present.
•
An exposure to 100 ppm of CO for 20 minutes may not affect average,
h
ealthy adults, but after 4 hours the same level may cause headaches.
•An exposure to 400 ppm of CO may cause headaches in average, healthy
a
dults after 35 minutes, but can cause death after 2 hours.
This CO Alarm measures exposure to CO over time. It alarms if CO levels
a
re extremely high in a short period of time, or if CO levels reach a certain
minimum over a long period of time. The CO Alarm generally sounds an alarm
before the onset of symptoms in average, healthy adults.
Why is this important? Because you need to be warned of a potential CO
problem while you can still react in time. In many reported cases of CO
e
xposure, victims may be aware that they are not feeling well, but become
disoriented and can no longer r
e
act well enough to exit the building or get
help. Also, young children and pets may be the first affected. The average
h
ealthy adult might not feel any symptoms when the CO Alarm sounds.
However
,
people with cardiac or respiratory problems, infants, unborn babies,
pregnant mothers, or elderly people can be more quickly and severely affected
b
y CO. If you experience even mild symptoms of CO poisoning, consult your
doctor immediately!

C
O alarms may not waken all individuals.
I
f children or others do not readily
waken to the sound of the CO alarm, or if there are infants or family members
w
ith mobility limitations, make sure that someone is assigned to assist them
i
n the event of an emerg
ency.
C
O Alarms will not work without power.
T
his alarm requires two standard
AA batteries to operate.
CO Alarms for Solar or Wind Energy users and battery backup power
s
ystems:
A
C powere
d CO Alarms should only be operated with true or pure
s
ine wave inverters. Operating this Alarm with most battery-powered UPS
(uninterruptible power supply) products or square wave or “quasi sine wave”
i
nverters
w
ill damage the Alarm
.
If you are
not sure about your inverter or
U
PS type, please consult with the manufacturer to verify.
T
his CO Alarm will not sense carbon monoxide that does not re
ach the
sensor. This CO Alarm will only sense CO at the sensor. CO may be present
i
n other areas. Doors or other obstructions may affect the rate at which CO
r
eaches the CO Alarm. For this reason, if bedroom doors are usually closed
at night, we r
ecommend you install a CO Alarm in each bedr
o
om and in the
h
allway between them.
C
O Alarms may not sense CO on another level of the home.
F
or example,
a
CO Alarm on the second level, near the bedrooms, may not sense CO in the
basement. For this reason, one CO Alarm may not give adequate warning.
C
omplete coverage is recommended. Place CO Alarms on each level of the
h
ome.
C
O Alarms may not be heard.
T
he alarm horn loudness meets or exceeds
current EN standards of 85 dB at 1 metre (3 feet). However, if the CO Alarm
i
s installed outside the bedroom, it may not wake up a sound sleeper or one
w
ho has re
cently used drugs or has been drinking alcoholic beverages. This
is especially true if the door is closed or only partly open. Even persons who
a
re awake may not hear the alarm horn if the sound is blocked by distance or
c
losed doors. Noise fro
m traff
ic, stere
o, radio, television, air conditioner,
or
other appliances may also prevent alert persons from hearing the alarm horn.
T
his CO Alarm is not intended for people who are hearing impaired.
CO Alarms are not a substitute for a smoke alarm. Although fire is a
s
ource of carbon monoxide, this CO Alarm does not sense smoke or fire. This
C
O Alarm senses CO that may be escaping unnoticed fro
m malfunctioning
furnaces, appliances, or other sources. Early warning of fire requires the
i
nstallation of smoke alarms.
C
O Alarms are
not a substitute for life insurance.
T
hough these CO Alarms
w
arn against increasing CO levels, BRK Brands, Inc. does not warrant or imply
i
n any way that they will protect lives from CO poisoning. Homeowners and
r
e
nters must still insure
their lives.
C
O Alarms have a limited life.
A
lthough the CO Alarm and all of its parts
h
ave passed many stringent tests and are designed to be as reliable as
possible, any of these parts could fail at any time. Therefore, you must test
y
our CO Alarm weekly.
CO Alarms are not foolproof.Like all other electronic devices, CO Alarms
have limitations. They can only detect CO that r
eaches their sensors. They may
n
ot give early warning to rising CO levels if the CO is coming from a remote
part of the home, away fr
o
m the CO Alarm.
