Anleitung Zusammenfassung
CO alarms have limitations. Like any other electronic device, CO alarms are not fool-proof. CO alarms have a limited operational life. You must test your CO alarm weekly, because it could fail to operate at any time. If your CO alarm fails to test properly, or if its self-diagnostic test reveals a malfunction, immediately have the alarm replaced. CO alarms will not work without power. This CO alarm requires a continuous supply of electric power. This CO alarms is designed to act as a monitor, it is not designed for use as a short term testing device to perform a quick check for the presence of CO. CO alarms can only sense CO that reaches the CO alarm’s sensor. Carbon monoxide may be present in other areas without reaching the alarm. The rate at which CO reaches the alarm may be affected by doors or other obstructions. In addition, fresh air from a vent or open window or any other source may prevent CO from reaching the sensor. CO could be present on one level of the home and not reach a CO alarm installed on a different level. For example, CO in the basement may not reach a alarm on the second level, near the bedrooms. For this reason, we recommend you provide complete coverage by placing a CO alarm on every level of the home. CO alarms should not be used to detect the presence of natural gas (methane), propane, butane, or other combustible fuels. CO alarms are not a substitute for property, disability, life or other insurance of any kind. Appropriate insurance coverage is your responsibility. Consult your insurance agent. 7 Part One – Your Kidde CO Alarm Where to Install Your CO Alarm Your Kidde CO alarm should be mounted in or near bedrooms and living areas. It is recommended that you install a Kidde CO alarm on each level of a multi-level home. You may use the number and location of smoke alarms installed in your home according to current building code requirements as a guide to the location of your Kidde CO alarm(s). RECOMMENDED LOCATIONS UPPER LEVELS OF HOME WHEN CHOOSING YOUR INSTALLATION LOCATIONS, MAKE SURE YOU CAN HEAR THE ALARM FROM ALL SLEEPING AREAS. IF YOU INSTALL ONLY ONE CARBON MONOXIDE ALARM IN YOUR HOME, INSTALL THE ALARM NEAR BEDROOMS, NOT IN THE BASEMENT OR FURNACE ROOM. Two labels have been provided. Add the phone number of your Emergency Service provider in the space provided on the labels. Place one label next to the alarm and the other one near a fresh air source such as a door or window. Seven (7) years after initial power up, this unit will “chirp” every 30 seconds to indicate that it is time to replace the alarm. REPLACE IMMEDIATELY! IT WILL NOT DETECT CO IN THIS CONDITION. To help identify the date to replace the unit, a label has been affixed to the side of the alarm. Write the “Replace by” date (7 years from power up) in permanent marker on the label. CAUTION: This CO alarm will only indicate the presence of carbon monoxide at the sensor. Carbon monoxide may be present in other areas. IMPORTANT: Improper location can affect the sensitive electronic components in this CO alarm. Please see the next section describing where NOT to install this CO alarm. Part One – Your Kidde CO Alarm Where Not to Install Your CO Alarm To avoid causing damage to the CO alarm, to provide optimum protection, and to prevent unnecessary alarms, follow the directions below where NOT to install this CO alarm: It is recommended that you DO NOT install this CO alarm in garages, kitchens or furnace rooms. Installation in these areas could lead to nuisance alarms, may expose the sensor to substances that could damage or contaminate it, or the alarm may not be heard by persons in other areas of the home, especially if they are sleeping. In the garage, vehicle exhaust can contain some carbon monoxide. These levels are higher when the engine is first started. CO levels in a garage may not be sufficient to activate the alarm immediately. Within hours of starting a vehicle and backing it out of the garage, the levels present over time can activate the alarm and become a nuisance. In the kitchen and furnace room, some gas appliances can emit a short burst of carbon monoxide upon startup. This is normal. If your CO alarm is mounted too close to these appliances, it may alarm often and become a nuisance. If you must install a Kidde CO alarm near a cooking or heating appliance, install at least 5 feet away from the appliance. Do not install in excessively dusty, dirty or greasy areas. Dust, grease or household chemicals can contaminate or coat the alarm’s sensor, causing the unit not to operate properly. Do not obstruct the vents of the CO alarm. Place the CO alarm where drapes, furniture or other objects do not block the flow of air to the vents. Do not install in dead air space, such as peaks of vaulted ceilings or gabled roofs, where carbon monoxide may not reach the sensor in time to provide early warning. Do not install in turbulent air from ceiling fans. Do not install near doors and windows that open to the out...
