False Alarms
Apparent false alarms from this product should be treated with caution. Alarms may be caused by very
deep seated fires or other dangerous sources of CO that are difficult to detect without monitoring
equipment. Carbon monoxide is a colourless, odourless gas and can cause death within
minutes.
Testing
Thisproduct should be tested annually with carbon monoxide gas; e.g. by placinga lighted hand-
warmer in a closely fitting hood. It does not respond to smoke and will not give an alarm from a smoke
testpole.
Safety Information
This product contains an electro-chemical cell with a sealed acid reservoir. In normal usage it
representsno chemical hazard, provided that the product is treated in accordance with the guidelines
given in PIN sheet PP2089.
In case of leakage avoid contact with skin. Use protective gloves and wash all traces of acid from the
productwith copious amounts of water.
