   • The device will perform a self-test and count down before entering normal operation mode.
3. Placement:
   • For optimal detection, place the detector in an area where CO is likely to accumulate, such as near fuel-burning appliances, but not directly above them.
   • Avoid placing it in direct sunlight, near vents, or in areas with high humidity.
   • The back clip allows for easy attachment to clothing or bags for portable use.

4. Mode Selection (MAX/MIN/HOLD):
   • Press the MODE button to cycle through MAX (maximum reading), MIN (minimum reading), and HOLD (freezing the current reading) modes.
   • Press the SET button to confirm selections or enter settings.
5. Unit Selection:
   • Press the UNIT button to switch between Celsius (°C) and Fahrenheit (°F) for temperature display.
6. Auto Power-Off:
   • The device will automatically shut down after 5 minutes of no operation to save battery life.

Maintenance

1. Battery Replacement:
   • When the low battery indicator appears on the display, replace the 3 x 1.5V AAA batteries promptly.
   • Ensure correct polarity during installation.
2. Cleaning:
   • Wipe the exterior of the detector with a soft, damp cloth.
   • Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or immerse the device in water.

Safety Information

Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas that can be fatal. This detector is designed to assist in the detection of CO gas. It is not a substitute for proper maintenance of fuel-burning appliances, including ventilation and exhaust systems, nor is it a substitute for visual inspection of such systems.

• General Precautions:
  • Never ignore a CO alarm. The alarm indicates the presence of carbon monoxide, which can be fatal.
  • Do not paint over the detector. Paint can clog the sensor openings and interfere with the unit's ability to detect CO.
  • Keep the detector away from excessive dust, dirt, and grease.
• What to do if the Alarm Sounds:
  • Immediately move to fresh air outdoors or open all doors and windows to ventilate the area.
  • Call your emergency services, fire department, or a qualified technician.
  • Do not re-enter the premises until the CO has dissipated and the source of the CO has been identified and corrected.
