4. Safety Information

This detector is a safety device. Please observe the following precautions:

Do not paint over the detector. Paint can clog the sensor openings and prevent the unit from functioning properly.
Do not block the ventilation openings on the detector.
Do not install in areas with high humidity, excessive dust, or extreme temperatures.
Do not install near exhaust vents, furnaces, water heaters, or other combustion appliances.
Regularly test the detector as described in this manual.
This device is intended to detect CO and combustible gases. It is not designed to detect smoke or fire.
In case of an alarm, evacuate the premises immediately and contact emergency services.

5. Setup and Installation

The Gedsffati HD08-G detector is designed for simple plug-and-play installation.

Choose a Location: Select an appropriate location for installation. For CO detection, place the unit at least 5 feet (1.5 meters) from any fuel-burning appliance. For combustible gas detection, place it near potential leak sources, but not directly above them. Avoid corners or areas with poor air circulation.
Plug In: Insert the detector directly into a standard 110V-220V AC electrical outlet. The device will power on automatically.
Initial Self-Test: Upon plugging in, the detector will perform an initial self-test. The screen will illuminate, and you may hear a brief audible signal.
Backup Battery: The built-in 1000 mAh battery will begin charging once plugged in. This battery provides continuous operation during power outages and allows for portable use.

CO (Carbon Monoxide): Displays the current CO concentration in parts per million (PPM).
GAS: Indicates the level of combustible gas detected, often represented by a bar graph or numerical value.
Temperature: Shows the ambient temperature.
Humidity: Displays the ambient humidity level.
Battery Indicator: Shows the current battery charge level.
Brightness/Sound Icons: May indicate current settings for screen brightness and alarm sound.

6.2 Alarm Indications

This scenario is depicted near a kitchen stove, emphasizing its function in preventing danger.

When CO concentration exceeds 50ppm, or combustible gas levels exceed the alarm threshold, the detector will activate an audible alarm (85 dB) and the screen display will change, often with flashing indicators or color changes.
Follow emergency procedures immediately upon alarm activation.

6.3 Self-Test Function

A green light indicates normal operation, while a red light signifies an alarm or sensor malfunction. A finger is shown pressing the 'H' button for a short press self-test.

To perform a self-test, short press the designated test button (often labeled 'H' or similar). The detector will briefly activate its alarm and display all indicators to confirm proper functioning.
A green indicator light typically signifies normal operation, while a red light may indicate an alarm or sensor malfunction.

7. Maintenance

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and reliability of your detector.

Cleaning: Gently wipe the exterior of the detector with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or spray directly onto the unit. Ensure no liquid enters the sensor openings.
Regular Testing: Perform a self-test at least once a week to confirm the alarm and display are functioning correctly.
Battery Check: The built-in backup battery is designed for long-term use. If the detector frequently runs out of power during outages or the battery indicator shows low charge even after prolonged charging, the battery may be degrading. Contact customer support if you suspect a battery issue.
Avoid Obstructions: Ensure that the detector's ventilation openings are not blocked by dust, debris, or household items.

8. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your detector, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

Problem	Possible Cause	Solution
Detector does not power on.	No power from outlet; unit not fully plugged in; backup battery depleted.	Ensure the outlet is functional. Plug the unit firmly into the outlet. Allow time for the backup battery to charge.
Alarm sounds frequently without apparent gas.	False alarm due to strong odors (e.g., cleaning products, aerosols); sensor contamination; actual low-level gas presence.	Ventilate the area. Move the detector to a different location temporarily. Clean the detector. If alarms persist, investigate potential gas leaks.
Display is blank or shows an error code.	Power issue; sensor malfunction; internal fault.	Check power connection. Perform a self-test. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
Alarm is too quiet or not sounding.	Speaker obstruction; unit malfunction.	Ensure speaker is not blocked. Perform a self-test. If the alarm is still not audible, the unit may be faulty and requires replacement.

If troubleshooting steps do not resolve the issue, please contact Gedsffati customer support for further assistance.
