When the carbon monoxide alarm sounds:
If alarm signal sounds:
1) Immediately move to fresh air – outdoors or by an
open door/window. Do a head count to
check that all persons are accounted for. Do not
re-enter the premises nor move away from
the open door/window until the emergency services
responders have arrived, the premises
have been aired out, and your alarm remains in its
normal condition.
2) Call your gas emergency services: 0800 111 999, or
your local Gas Safe Registered Engineer:
Alternatively, for solid fuel emergencies call
HETAS (0845 634 5626) or for oil based emergencies
call Oftec (0845 658 5080).
Never restart the source of the CO problem until it
has been corrected. Never ignore the sound
of the alarm! If the alarm is sounding, pressing the
test/reset button will terminate the alarm. If
the CO condition that caused the alert in the first
place continues, the alarm will reactivate. If the unit
alarms again within six minutes, it is sensing high
levels of CO which can quickly become
a dangerous situation.
WARNING:
Actuation of your CO Alarm
indicates the presence of
Carbon Monoxide (CO)
which can kill you.

NEVER IGNORE THE SOUND OF THE ALARM!
Determining what type of alarm has soun e is easy with
your Ki e Combination Smoke/CO Alarm. The voice
message warning system will inform you of the type of
situation occurring. Refer to the Features section on page 4
for a etaile escription of each alarm pattern.
When the smoke alarm sounds:
Smoke alarms are esigne to minimize false alarms.
Cigarette smoke will not normally set off the alarm, unless
the smoke is blown irectly into the alarm. This unit
contains nuisance alarm protection, which will re uce the
impact of cooking particles. However, large quantities of
combustible particles from spills or grilling coul still cause
the unit to alarm. Careful location of the unit away from
the kitchen area will give the maximum nuisance alarm
protection. Combustion particles from cooking may set off
the alarm if locate too close to the cooking area. Large
quantities of combustible particles are generate from spills
or when broiling. Using the fan on a range hoo which
vents to the outsi e (non- recirculating type) will also help
remove these combustible pro ucts from the kitchen.
If the alarm soun s, check for fires first. If a fire is iscov-
ere follow these steps. Become thoroughly familiar with
these items, an review with all family members!
• Alert small chil ren in the home. Chil ren sleep very
soun ly an may not be awakene by the soun of
the smoke alarms.
• Leave imme iately using one of your planne escape
routes (see page 25). Every secon counts, on’t stop
to get resse or pick up valuables.
• Before opening insi e oors look for smoke seeping in
aroun the e ges, an feel with the back of your han
If the oor is hot use your secon exit. If you feel it’s
safe, open the oor very slowly an be prepare to
close imme iately if smoke an heat rush in.
• If the escape route requires you to go through smoke,
crawl low un er the smoke where the air is clearer.

What o Do When he Alarm Sounds!
• Go to your pre etermine meeting place. When two
people have arrive one shoul leave to call 999 from
a neighbour's home, an the other shoul stay to
perform a hea count.
• Do not reenter under any circumstance until fire
officials give the go ahead.
• There are situations where a smoke alarm may
not be effective to protect against fire. For example;
- Smoking in bed.
- Leaving children unsupervised.
- Cleaning with flammable liquids, such as gaso-
line.
- Fires where the victim is intimate with a flaming
initiated fire; for example, when a person's
clothes catch fire while cooking.
- Fires where the smoke is prevented from reach-
ing the detector due to a closed door or other
obstruction.
- Incendiary fires where the fire grows so rapidly
that an occupant's egress is blocked even with
properly located detectors.

Smoke Alarm
The smoke alarm monitors the air for pro ucts of
combustion that are pro uce when something is burning
or smoul ering. When smoke particles in the smoke sensor
reach a specifie concentration, the alarm/voice message
warning system will soun , an be accompanie by the
flashing re LED light. The smoke alarm takes prece-
dence when both smoke and carbon monoxide are
present.
Life safety from fire in resi ential occupancies is base pri-
marily on early notification to occupants of the nee to
escape, followe by the appropriate escape actions by those
occupants. Fire warning systems for welling units are capa-
ble of protecting about half of the occupants in potentially
fatal fires. Victims are often intimate with the fire, For the
ol , young, or physically or mentally impaire such that
they cannot escape even when warne early enough that
escape shoul be possible. For these people, other strate-
gies such as protection-in-place or assiste escape or rescue
are necessary.
• Smoke alarms are evices that can provi e early warning
of possible fires at a reasonable cost; however, alarms
have sensing limitations. Ionisation sensing alarms may
etect invisible fire particles (associate with fast flaming
fires) sooner than photoelectric alarms. Photoelectric
sensing alarms may etect visible fire particles (associate
with slow smoul ering fires) sooner than ionisation
alarms. Home fires evelop in ifferent ways an are
often unpre ictable. For maximum protection, Ki e
recommen s that both Ionisation an Photoelectric
alarms be installe .
• A battery powere alarm must have a battery of the
specifie type, in goo con ition an installe properly.
• Smoke alarms must be teste regularly to make sure the
batteries an the alarm circuits are in goo operating
con ition.
• Smoke alarms cannot provi e an alarm if smoke oes not
reach the alarm. Therefore, smoke alarms may not sense
fires starting in chimneys, walls, on roofs, on the other
si e of a close oor or on a ifferent floor.

• If the alarm is locate outsi e the be room or on a
ifferent floor, it may not wake up a soun sleeper.
• The use of alcohol or rugs may also impair one’s ability
to hear the smoke alarm. For maximum protection, a
smoke alarm shoul be installe in each sleeping area on
every level of a home.
• Although smoke alarms can help save lives by provi ing
an early warning of a fire, they are not a substitute for an
insurance policy. Home owners an renters shoul have
a equate insurance to protect their lives an property.
Carbon Monoxide (CO) Alarm
The carbon monoxi e (CO) alarm monitors the air for the
presence of CO. It will alarm when there are high levels of
CO present, an when there are low levels of CO present
over a longer perio of time. When a CO con ition
matches either of these situations, the alarm/voice message
warning system will soun , an be accompanie by the
flashing re LED light. The carbon monoxi e sensor uses an
electrochemical technology.
CAUTION: This alarm will only indicate the
presence of carbon monoxide gas at the sensor.
Carbon monoxide gas may be present in other areas.
In ivi uals with me ical problems may consi er using warn-
ing evices which provi e au ible an visual signals for car-
bon monoxi e concentrations less than 30 ppm.

IMPORTANT: THIS ALARM MUST BE MOUNTED ON A
CEILING OR WALL. IT WAS NOT DESIGNED FOR USE AS A
TABLETOP DEVICE! INSTALL
ONLY AS DETAILED!
A. Recommended
Installation Locations:
Ki e recommen s the
installation of a Smoke/CO
Alarm in the following loca-
tions. For maximum protec-
tion we suggest an alarm be
installe on each level of a
multilevel home, inclu ing
every be room, hallways, fin-
ishe attics an basements.
If installing this alarm in the
kitchen, please note that sometimes cooking fumes or
steam can result in 'nuisance' smoke alarms which can be
minimize by locating the alarm away from sources of
cooking fumes or steam. Put alarms at both en s of
be room, hallway or large room if hallway or room is more
than 30 ft (9.1m) long. If you have only one alarm, ensure it
is place in the hallway outsi e of the main sleeping area,
or in the main be room. Verify the alarm can be hear in all
sleeping areas.
Locate an alarm in every room where someone sleeps with
the oor close . The close oor may prevent an alarm not
locate in that room from waking the sleeper. Smoke, heat
an combustion pro ucts rise to the ceiling an sprea
horizontally.
Mounting the alarm on the ceiling in the centre of the room
places it closest to all points in the room. Ceiling mounting is
preferre in or inary resi ential construction. When mounting
an alarm on the ceiling, locate it at a minimum of 4” (10cm)
from the si e wall (see figure 1). If installing the alarm on the
wall, use an insi e wall with the top e ge of the alarm at a
minimum of 4” (10cm) an a maximum of 12” (30.5cm)
below the ceiling (see figure 1).

Static Mobile Homes:
Mo ern mobile homes have been esigne an built to be
energy efficient. Install Smoke/CO alarms as recommen e
previously (refer to Recommen e Installation Instructions
an figure 1). In ol er mobile homes that are not well
insulate , extreme heat or col can be transferre from the
outsi e to the insi e through poorly insulate walls an
roof. This may cause a thermal barrier, which can prevent
smoke from reaching an alarm mounte on the ceiling. In
such mobile homes install your Smoke/CO Alarm on an
insi e wall with the top e ge of the alarm at a minimum of
4 inches (10cm) an a maximum of 12 inches (30.5cm)
below the ceiling (See figure 1). If you are not sure about
the insulation in your mobile home, or if you notice that the
outer walls an ceiling are either hot or col , install your
alarm on an insi e wall ONLY!

CO Alarm Response ime
Never restart the source of a CO problem until it has
been fixed. NEVER IGNORE THE ALARM!
The CO sensor meets the alarm response time requirements of
EN50291-1:2010 Stan ar alarm times are as follows:
This carbon monoxide alarm is designed to detect
carbon monoxide gas from ANY source of combus-
tion. It is NOT designed to detect any other gas.
It can be possible to arrange for a CO inspection of your
home or property, but some inspectors may charge for this
service. Ki e will not pay for or reimburse the owner or
user of this pro uct for any repair or ispatch calls relate
to the alarm soun ing so it is a visable to inquire about
fees prior to having such a service performe .
NOTE: Before activating the battery carrier tamper resist feature,
make sure a fresh battery is installe in the unit an that the battery
carrier is properly close . If the battery carrier tamper resist feature
is activate while the battery carrier is open, the battery carrier will
not close an the unit will be inoperable.
T
o eactivate the battery carrier tamper resist, in or er to change the
