Smoke Nuisance
SILENCE: If you know why the alarm is sounding, and you can verify that it is not a life threatening
situation, you can push the button silence the alarm for 8-10 minutes. If the smoke is not too dense,
that unit will silence. After the SILENCE period, the smoke alarm will automatically reset and sound
the alarm if particles of combustion are still present. You can use SILENCE repeatedly until the air
has been cleared of the condition causing the alarm.
RESET: Pushing the button during CO alarm allows the unit to reset calculations and double check
for the presence of CO. If the unit re-alarms within 6 minutes, it is sensing high levels of CO which
can quickly become a dangerous situation. Move to fresh air and call 911.
NOTE: Dense smoke will override SILENCE and sound a continuous alarm. If no fire is present,
check to see if one of the reasons listed in “Locations to avoid” may have caused the alarm. If a fire
is discovered, get out and call the fire department or 911.
This alarm is designed to minimize nuisance alarms. Cigarette smoke will not normally cause the unit
to alarm, unless the smoke is blown directly into the alarm. Combustion particles from cooking may
set off the alarm if it is located too close to a cooking appliance.
Large quantities of combustible particles are generated from spills or when broiling. Using the fan on
a range hood which vents to the outside (non-recirculating type) will also help prevent nuisance alarms
from occurring by removing these combustible products from the kitchen.
Prepare and practice a home escape plan twice a year, including drills at night. Know of two ways out
of every room (door & window) and identify a meeting place outside the home where everyone will
gather once they have exited the residence. When two people have reached the meeting place, one
should leave to call the fire department's telephone number ( ______________ ) while the second
person stays to account for additional family members.
Establish a rule that once you're out, you never
re-enter under any circumstance!

Initial carbon monoxide poisoning symptoms are similar to the flu with no fever and can include
dizziness, severe headaches, nausea, vomiting and disorientation. Everyone is susceptible but
experts agree that unborn babies, pregnant women, senior citizens and people with heart or
respiratory problems are especially vulnerable. If symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning are
experienced seek medical attention immediately. CO poisoning can be determined by a
carboxyhemoglobin test.
The following symptoms are related to CARBON MONOxIDE POISONING and should be
discussed with ALL members of the household:
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless poison gas that can be fatal when
inhaled. CO inhibits the blood's capacity to carry oxygen.
7.1 Possible Sources of CO
1) Excessive spillage or reverse venting of fuel burning appliances caused by: i) Outdoor ambient
conditions such as wind direction and/or velocity, including high gusts of wind; heavy air in the vent
pipes (cold/humid air with extended periods between cycles), ii) Negative pressure differential
resulting from the use of exhaust fans, iii) Simultaneous operation of several fuel burning
appliances competing for limited internal air. iv) Vent pipe connection vibrating loose from clothes
dryers, furnaces, or water heaters, v) Obstructions in or unconventional vent pipe designs which
amplify the above situations.

■ Make a floor plan indicating all doors and windows and least two escape routes from each room.
Second story windows may need a rope or chain ladder.
■ Have a family meeting and discuss your escape plan, showing everyone what to do in case of fire
and where to meet after they leave the house.
■ Ensure that small children hear the alarm and wake when it sounds. They must wake up on order to
execute the escape plan. Practice allows all occupants to test your plan before an emergency. You may
not be able to reach your children. It is important they know what to do.
■ Familiarize everyone with the sound of the smoke/CO alarm and train them to leave you home when
they hear it.
■ Current studies have shown smoke/CO alarms may not awaken all sleeping individuals, and that it is
the responsibility of individuals in the household that are capable of assisting other to provide
