Resumen del manual
Low Battery Warning If the 9V battery is missing, or if the battery’s power is low, a “Lb” message will display which blink’s alternately with the current CO reading every second. If this happens, you need to replace the battery. Refer to page 15 for more on low battery warnings. What to do if you’re not sure... PLEASE familiarize yourself with the malfunction alert, and do not confuse these signals with an alarm. After reading the information above, if you are still unsure whether your alarm is operating properly, call the Kidde toll-free consumer hotline at 1-800-880-6788 to do a quick diagnostic check of the alarm over the phone. The customer service representative will be able to assist you and answer your questions. Never ignore a CO alarm. A true alarm is an indication of potentially dangerous levels of carbon monoxide. CO alarms are designed to alert you to the presence of carbon monoxide before an emergency, before most people would experience symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning, giving you time to resolve the problem calmly. Operation The Peak Level Memory Button Although the peak level feature will display levels below 30 PPM, these levels will not result in an alarm no matter how long the device is exposed to these levels. The peak level feature is helpful in identifying CO occurrences below 30 PPM. Although the unit will not automatically display levels below 30 PPM, it will detect and store these readings in memory. By pressing the peak level button, concentration levels as low as 11 and up to 999 PPM will be displayed. Concentrations of CO between 0 and 30 PPM can often occur in normal, everyday conditions. Concentrations of CO below 30 PPM may be an indication of a transient condition that may appear today and never reappear. Just a few examples of conditions and/or sources that may cause readings are heavy automobile traffic, a running vehicle in an attached garage, an appliance that emits CO when starting up, a fire in a fireplace or charcoal in a nearby barbecue. A temperature inversion can trap CO generated by traffic and other fuel burning appliances causing readings of CO. Normally, the digital display will read “0” and under certain conditions you may notice levels of 30 or more for short periods of time, by using the Peak level memory feature on the Kidde CO alarm you can view concentrations of CO between 11 and 30 PPM. Use the concentrations shown in memory as a tool in identifying the source of the CO. It may be helpful to purchase additional Kidde CO Alarms to place in different locations throughout your house to isolate the CO source. Monitor the CO concentrations shown in the peak level memory to see if readings occur in certain areas at certain times of the day, or near a particular appliance. Once the source is located, correcting the problem may be as easy as opening a window, venting an appliance, backing a running car out of the garage a safe distance from living quarters, closing the garage door, and letting the car warm up outside. It could be possible that a weather condition caused the reading and the condition may or may not happen again. Operation Some CO conditions may start out as low level leaks but could develop into CO concentrations that could become harmful. If this happens, the CO alarm will detect the dangerous level and alarm, notifying you and others of the conditions. DO NOT ignore high concentration readings above 30 PPM or a CO alarming device that is in alarm. Refer to page 12 for more details. CO concentrations displayed below 30 PPM in "Peak Level" memory are for reference only and the accuracy of the concentration shown may not be as accurate as noted on page 27. To Reset the Peak Level Memory… S SSt tte eep pp 1 11. .. Press the peak level button. S SSt tte eep pp 2 22. .. With the peak level button still pressed, press the test/reset button for two seconds and release. The number on the display will turn to “0”. The memory has now been cleared and the alarm will begin monitoring for CO within a few minutes. Maintenance How to Care for Your Alarm To keep your alarm in good working order, you must follow these simple steps: WHAT YOU SHOULD DO: • Test the alarm once a week by pressing the Test/Reset button (see page 8). • Vacuum the alarm cover once a month to remove accumulated dust. Use the soft brush attachment of your vacuum cleaner, and unplug the alarm from the electrical outlet before vacuuming. • Instruct children never to touch, unplug or otherwise interfere with the alarm. Warn children of the dangers of CO poisoning. WHAT YOU SHOULD NOT DO: • Never use detergents or solvents to clean the alarm. Chemicals can permanently damage or temporarily contaminate the sensor. • Avoid spraying air freshener, hair spray, paint or other aerosols near the alarm. • Do not paint the alarm. Paint will seal the vents and interfere with proper sensor operation. • Do not mount the alarm directly above or near a diaper pail, as high amounts of methane gas can c...
