It is not a smoke alarm and does not detect fire. This device is not a substitute for proper maintenance of fuel-burning appliances, including ventilation and exhaust systems.
- Ignorer ikke alarmen. An alarm indicates the presence of carbon monoxide, which can be fatal.
- Mal aldrig alarmen. Paint can block the sensor and prevent proper operation.
- Do not obstruct the alarm's vents. Sørg for, at luften kan cirkulere frit omkring enheden.
- Test alarmen regelmæssigt. Perform a test at least once a month.

4.1. Aktivering
The Fireangel CO-9X alarm is activated by removing a small lanyard or activation tab from the battery compartment. Once activated, the green LED will flash, indicating the unit is operational. The sealed battery is designed to last for 7 years from activation.
4.2. Placeringsretningslinjer
For optimal protection, install carbon monoxide alarms in:
- Every room containing a fuel-burning appliance.
- Rooms where occupants spend considerable time, such as living rooms and bedrooms.
- Areas where the alarm can be heard by all occupants.
The alarm can be free-standing on a flat surface or wall-mounted using the provided fixings. When wall-mounting, ensure it is at least 150mm (6 inches) from the ceiling and at least 1 meter (3 feet) from any fuel-burning appliance to avoid false alarms from normal appliance operation.
