INTRODUCTION

FIRE SAFETY TIPS

Follow safety rules and prevent hazardous situations: 1) Use smoking

materials properly. Never smoke in bed. 2) Keep matches or lighters away

from children; 3) Store flammable materials in proper containers; 4) Keep

electrical appliances in good condition and don’t overload electrical circuits;

5) Keep stoves, barbecue grills, fireplaces and chimneys grease- and debris-

free; 6) Never leave anything cooking on the stove unattended; 7) Keep

portable heaters and open flames, like candles, away from flammable

materials; 8) Don’t let rubbish accumulate.

Keep alarms clean, and test them weekly. Replace alarms immediately if

they are not working properly. Smoke Alarms that do not work cannot alert

you to a fire. Keep at least one working fire extinguisher on every floor, and

an additional one in the kitchen. Have fire escape ladders or other reliable

means of escape from an upper floor in case stairs are blocked.

BASIC SAFETY INFORMATION

• Dangers, Warnings, and Cautions alert you to important

operating instructions or to potentially hazardous situations.

Pay special attention to these items.

• This Smoke/CO Alarm is approved for use in single-family

residences. It is NOT designed for marine or RV use.

•

This combination Smoke/Carbon Monoxide Alarm has two separate

alarms. The CO Alarm is not designed to detect fire or any other

gas. It will only indicate the presence of carbon monoxide gas at

the sensor. Carbon monoxide gas may be present in other areas.

The Smoke Alarm will only indicate the presence of smoke that

reaches the sensor. The Smoke Alarm is not designed to sense

gas, heat or flames.

• This Smoke/CO Alarm cannot operate without working batteries.

Removing the batteries for any reason, or failing to replace the

batteries at the end of their service life, removes your protection.

• NEVER ignore any alarm. See “If Your Smoke/CO Alarm Sounds”

for more information on how to respond to an alarm. Failure to

respond can result in injury or death.

• The Silence Features are for your convenience only and will not

correct a problem. See "Using the Silence Features" for details.

Always check your home for a potential problem after any alarm.

Failure to do so can result in injury or death.

• Test this Smoke/CO Alarm once a week. If the Alarm ever fails to

test correctly, have it replaced immediately! If the Alarm is not

working properly, it cannot alert you to a problem.

• This product is intended for use in ordinary indoor locations of

family living units. It is not designed to measure CO levels in

compliance with Occupational Safety and Health Administration

(OSHA) commercial or industrial standards. Individuals with

medical conditions that may make them more sensitive to carbon

monoxide may consider using warning devices which provide

audible and visual signals for carbon monoxide concentrations

under 30 ppm. For additional information on carbon monoxide

and your medical condition contact your physician.

COMBINATION CARBON MONOXIDE & SMOKE ALARM

Features:

• Separate sensors to detect smoke

and CO; the two alarm systems

work independently

• Powered by two “AA” batteries

• Side access drawer for easy

battery replacement

All First Alert®Smoke Alarms conform to regulatory requirements,

including UL217 and are designed to detect particles of combustion.

Smoke particles of varying number and size are produced in all fires.

Ionization technology is generally more sensitive than photoelectric

technology at detecting small particles, which tend to be produced

in greater amounts by flaming fires, which consume combustible

materials rapidly and spread quickly. Sources of these fires may include

paper burning in a wastebasket, or a grease fire in the kitchen.

Photoelectric technology is generally more sensitive than ionization

technology at detecting large particles, which tend to be produced in

greater amounts by smoldering fires, which may smolder for hours

before bursting into flame. Sources of these fires may include cigarettes

burning in couches or bedding.

For maximum protection, use both types of Smoke Alarms on each

level and in every bedroom of your home.

USER’S MANUAL

INSTALLATION

WHERE TO INSTALL THIS ALARM

Minimum coverage for Smoke Alarms, as recommended by the National

Fire Protection Association (NFPA), is one Smoke Alarm on every floor, in

every sleeping area, and in every bedroom (See “Regulatory Information For

Smoke Alarms” for details on the NFPA recommendations).

For CO Alarms, the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) recommends

that a CO Alarm should be centrally located outside of each separate sleeping

area in the immediate vicinity of the bedrooms. For added protection, install

additional CO Alarms in each separate bedroom, and on every level of your

home.

NOTE: For added protection, install an additional Smoke/CO Alarm at least

15 feet (4.6 meters) away from the furnace or fuel burning heat source where

possible. In smaller homes or in manufactured homes where this distance

cannot be maintained, install the Alarm as far away as possible from the furnace

or other fuel burning source. Installing the Alarm closer than 15 feet (4.6 meters)

will not harm the Alarm, but may increase the frequency of unwanted alarms.

In general, install combination Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Alarms:

• On every level of your home, including finished attics and basements.

• Inside every bedroom, especially if people sleep with the door partly or

completely closed.

• In the hall near every sleeping area. If your home has multiple sleeping

areas, install a unit in each. If a hall is more than 40 feet (12 meters) long,

install a unit at each end.

• At the top of first-to-second floor stairs.

• At the bottom of the basement stairs.

• For additional coverage, install Alarms in all rooms, halls, and storage

areas, where temperatures normally remain between 40˚ F and 100˚ F

(4˚ C and 38˚ C).

RECOMMENDED PLACEMENT

• When installing on the wall, the top edge of Smoke Alarms should be

placed between 4 inches (102 mm) and 12 inches (305 mm) from the

wall/ceiling line.

• When installing on the ceiling, place the alarm as close to the

center as possible.

• In either case, install at least 4 inches (102 mm) from where the wall and

ceiling meet. See “Avoiding Dead Air Spaces” for more information.

NOTE: For any location, make sure no door or other obstruction could keep

carbon monoxide or smoke from reaching the Alarm.

Installing Smoke/CO Alarms in Mobile Homes

For minimum security install one Smoke/CO Alarm as close to each sleeping

area as possible. For more security, put one unit in each room. Many older

mobile homes (especially those built before 1978) have little or no insulation.

If your mobile home is not well insulated, or if you are unsure of the amount

of insulation, it is important to install units on inside walls only.

WHERE THIS ALARM SHOULD NOT BE INSTALLED

Do NOT locate this Smoke/CO Alarm:

• In garages, furnace rooms, crawl spaces and unfinished attics. Avoid

extremely dusty, dirty or greasy areas.

• Where combustion particles are produced. Combustion particles form

when something burns. Areas to avoid include poorly ventilated kitchens,

garages, and fur ooms. Keep units at least 20 feet (6 meters) frnace r om

the sources of combustion particles (stove, furnace, water heater, space

heater) if possible. In areas where a 20-foot (6 meter) distance is not

possible – in modular, mobile, or smaller homes, for example – it is

recommended the Smoke Alarm be placed as far from these fuel-burning

sources as possible. The placement recommendations are intended to

keep these Alarms at a reasonable distance from a fuel-burning source,

and thus reduce “unwanted” alarms. Unwanted alarms can occur if a

Smoke Alarm is placed directly next to a fuel-burning source. Ventilate

these areas as much as possible.

• Within 5 feet (1.5 meters) of any cooking appliance. In air streams near

kitchens. Air currents can draw cooking smoke into the smoke sensor

and cause unwanted alarms.

• In extremely humid areas. This Alarm should be at least 10 feet (3 meters)

from a shower, sauna, humidifier, vaporizer, dishwasher, laundry room,

utility room, or other source of high humidity.

• In direct sunlight.

• In turbulent air, like near ceiling fans or open windows. Blowing air may

prevent CO or smoke from reaching the sensors.

• In areas where temperature is colder than 40˚ F (4˚ C) or hotter than 100˚F

(38˚ C). These areas include non-airconditioned crawl spaces, unfinished

attics, uninsulated or poorly insulated ceilings, porches, and garages.

• In insect infested areas. Insects can clog the openings to the sensing

chamber.

• Less than 12 inches (305 mm) away from fluorescent lights. Electrical

“noise” can interfere with the sensor.

• In “dead air” spaces. See “Avoiding Dead Air Spaces”.

AVOIDING DEAD AIR SPACES

“Dead air” spaces may prevent smoke from reaching the Smoke/CO Alarm.

To avoid dead air spaces, follow installation recommendations below.

On ceilings, install Smoke/CO Alarms as close to the center of the ceiling as

possible. If this is not possible, install the Smoke/CO Alarm at least 4 inches

(102 mm) from the wall or corner.

For wall mounting (if allowed by building codes), the top edge of Smoke/CO

Alarms should be placed between 4 inches (102 mm) and 12 inches (305 mm)

from the wall/ceiling line, below typical “dead air” spaces.

On a peaked, gabled, or cathedral ceiling, install first Smoke/CO Alarm

within 3 feet (0.9 meters) of the peak of the ceiling, measured horizontally.

Additional Smoke/CO Alarms may be required depending on the length, angle,

etc. of the ceiling's slope. Refer to NFPA 72 for details on requirements for

sloped or peaked ceilings.

HOW TO INSTALL THIS ALARM

This combination Smoke/CO Alarm was designed to be mounted on the

ceiling or wall. It is not a tabletop device.You must install this device on the

ceiling or wall as outlined below. Read “Where To Install This Alarm” before

starting.

Tools you will need: pencil, drill with 3/16” or 5mm drill bit,

flathead screwdriver, hammer.

•

Do not connect this unit to any other alarm or auxiliary device. It is a

single-station unit that cannot be linked to other devices. Connecting

anything else to this unit may prevent it from working properly.

• Do not install this unit over an electrical junction box. Air currents

around junction boxes can prevent smoke from reaching the sens-

ing chamber and prevent the unit from alarming. Only AC powered

units are intended for installation over junction boxes.

If you want to lock the battery compartment, or lock the Smoke/CO

Alarm to the mounting bracket, please read the “Optional Locking

Features” section.

1. Hold base firmly and twist the mounting bracket counterclockwise (left) to

separate it from the unit.

2. Hold the mounting bracket against the ceiling (or wall) so the vertical

mounting slot is aligned in the 12 o’clock position and trace around the

inside of the mounting slots (vertical and horizontal mounting).

3. Put the unit where it won’t get covered with dust when you drill the

mounting holes.

4. Using a 3/16” (5 mm) drill bit, drill a hole through the center of the oval

outlines you traced.

5. Insert the plastic screw anchors (in the plastic bag with screws) into the

holes. Tap the screw anchors gently with a hammer, if necessary, until

they are flush with the ceiling or wall.

6. Line the mounting bracket up over the plastic screw anchors.

7. Screw the mounting bracket to the ceiling or wall through the mounting

slots using the two screws provided.

8. Before attaching the Alarm to

the bracket, insert the two (2)

AA batteries (included) into the

battery compartment. Match

the terminals on the end of the

battery with the terminals on

the unit. Match “+” to “+” and

“-” to “-.” If the batteries are

not fully inserted, the unit

cannot receive battery power.

NOTE: The unit may beep briefly when you install the batteries. This is normal.

The GREEN Light flashes about every 60 seconds when the unit is

receiving battery power.

The battery door will resist closing unless batteries are installed. This

warns you the unit will not operate without batteries.

9. Attach the Smoke/CO Alarm to the

mounting bracket. Line up the guides on

the alarm’s base with the guides on the

mounting bracket. When guides are lined

up, turn the base clockwise (right) until it

snaps into place.
