Introduction
All X-Sense combination smoke & carbon monoxide alarms conform with
regulatory requirements, including UL 217 & UL 2034 standards and are designed to
detect both smoke and carbon monoxide.
This unit adopts photoelectric technology to detect smoke which is generally
more sensitive than ionization technology. It is effective at detecting large
particles, which tend to be produced in greater amounts by smoldering fires and
may smolder for hours before bursting into flame. Sources of these fires may
include cigarettes burning in couches or bedding.
Carbon monoxide (CO) is odorless, tasteless and invisible - it's a silent killer. Using
electrochemical sensing technology, this unit can detect increased levels of
carbon monoxide early, protecting your family from the dangers of carbon
monoxide.
Note: For maximum protection, use smoke & CO alarms on each level and in
every bedroom of your home.
eQ2e
THIS EQUIPMENT SHOULD BE INSTALLED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
NATIONAL FIRE PROTECTION ASSOCIATION’S STANDARD 72
(National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA02269).
NEVER IGNORE THE SOUND OF THE ALARM!
Determining what type of alarm has sounded is easy with your X-Sense
combination smoke & carbon monoxide alarms. The alarm sounder will inform you
of the type of situation occurring.
When the Smoke Alarm Sounds:
Smoke alarms are designed to minimize false alarms. Cigarette smoke will not
normally set off the alarm, unless the smoke is blown directly into the alarm.
This unit contains nuisance alarm protection, which will reduce the impact of
cooking particles. However, large quantities of combustible particles from spills
or broiling could 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 located too close to
the cooking area. 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 remove these combustible
products from the kitchen. If the alarm sounds, check for fires first. If a fire is
discovered, follow these steps. Become thoroughly familiar with these items,
and review with all family members!
*Alert small children in the home. Children sleep very sound and may not be
awakened by the sound of the smoke alarms.
*Leave immediately using one of your planned escape routes. Every second
counts, so don't stop to get dressed or pick up valuables.

*Before opening inside doors, look for smoke seeping in around the edges, and
feel with the back of your hand. If the door is hot, use your second exit. If you
feel it's safe, open the door very slowly and be prepared to close immediately if
smoke and heat rush in.
*lf the escape route requires you to go through smoke, crawl low under the
smoke where the air is clearer.
*Go to your predetermined meeting place. When two people have arrived, one
should leave to call 911 from a neighbor's home, and the other should stay to
perform a head 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 as noted by the NFPA and UL Std. 217. For instance:
- Smoking in bed.
- Leaving children unsupervised.
- Cleaning with flammable liquids, such as gasoline.
- 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 reaching 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.

WARNING:
Actuation of your CO Alarm indicates the presence of Carbon
Monoxide (CO) which can kill you.
When the Carbon Monoxide Alarm Sounds:
(1) Operate the test/reset button.
(2) Call your emergency services (Fire Dept. or 911). PHONE NUMBER
(3) 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 reenter the
premises nor move away from the open door/window until the emergency
services responders have arrived, the premises has been aired out, and your
alarm remains in its normal condition.
(4) After following steps 1-3, if your alarm reactivates
within a 24-hour period, repeat steps 1-3 and calla
qualified appliance technician to investigate for sources of CO from fuel-burning
equipment and appliances, and inspect for proper operation of this equipment.
If problems are identified during this inspection, have the equipment serviced
immediately. Note any combustion equipment not inspected by the technician
and consult the manufacturer's instructions, or contact the manufacturer
directly, for more information about CO safety and this equipment. Make sure
that motor vehicles are not, and have not been, operating in an attached garage
or adjacent to the residence.

Alarm Sounder
The alarm will sound when there is smoke or CO present, when testing the
alarm, and when there is a fault.
LED Indicator
The LED indicator will flash in conjunction with the alarm sounder. Therefore, it
will flash during the following states: when powering on, in standby mode,
during smoke or CO alarm states, when exiting an alarm state, during test
mode, when there is low battery, in silence mode, when there is a fault and
when the unit is at the end of its life.
Low Battery
The LED indicator will flash yellow together with one beep every 60 seconds.
THE UNIT MUST BE DEACTIVATED (see "Deactivation of the Alarm" section) AND
REPLACED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
(If you press the test button when there is low battery, the low battery signal will
temporarily cease for 10 hours; if you press the test button again, the unit will enter
the test mode and then the standby mode.)
End of Life
Once the maximum lifetime (10 years) is reached, the alarm delivers 2 beeps and
the LED indicator will flash yellow twice every 30 seconds. This end-of-life signal
can be temporarily silenced for 3 days by pressing the test button.
The end-of-life silence feature can only be used for a total of 30 days. After 30
days, the end-of-life signal cannot be silenced.

3. Place the alarm where drapes or other objects will not block the sensors. Smoke
and CO must be able to reach the sensors to accurately detect these conditions.
Do not install in peaks of vaulted ceilings, “A” frame ceilings or gabled roofs. Keep
out of damp and humid areas.
_ Install at least one (1) foot away from fluorescent lights, as electronic noise may
cause nuisance alarms. Do not place in direct sunlight and keep out of
insect-infested areas. Extreme temperatures will affect the sensitivity of the
smoke/CO alarm. Do not install in areas where the temperature is colder than 40
°F (4.4 °C) or hotter than 100 °F (37.8 °C), such as garages and unfinished attics. Do
not install in areas where the relative humidity (RH) is above 85%. Place away from
doors and windows that open to the outside.
5. Smoke alarms are not to be used with detector guards unless the combination
(alarm and guard) has been evaluated and found suitable for that purpose.

Mounting Steps
1. Drill three @ 6.0 mm holes in the wall or ceiling, then insert three plastic anchor
plugs into the holes with a hammer.
2. Attach the mounting bracket to the surface of the wall or ceiling with three
screws and mount the alarm into the bracket by pushing them together and
twisting the unit clockwise.
3. Test the unit by using the Test/Silence button. Ensure the unit sounds in an
alarm pattern.
Note: This model is equipped with a feature that automatically activates the
alarm when the alarm is attached to the mounting bracket for the first time.

Maintenance
To keep your smoke/CO alarm in good working order, follow these simple steps:
1. Verify the unit's alarm sound and indicators are working properly by testing the
unit once a week.
2. Remove the unit from the ceiling/wall and clean the alarm cover and vents with a
soft brush attachment once a month to remove dust and dirt.
3. Never use detergents or other solvents to clean the unit.
4. Avoid spraying air fresheners, hair spray or other aerosols near the alarm.
5. Do not paint the unit. Paint will seal the vents and interfere with the sensor's
ability to detect smoke or CO. Never attempt to disassemble the unit or clean
inside. Doing so will void your warranty.
6.When removed, place the smoke/CO alarm back in its proper location as soon as
possible, to assure continuous protection from fire or carbon monoxide poisoning.
7.When household cleaning supplies or similar contaminants are used, the area
should be ventilated.
If the Smoke Alarm Sounds
1. Don't panic; stay calm. Follow your family's escape plan.
2. Get out of the house as quickly as possible. Don't stop to get dressed or collect
anything. x
