Carbon Monoxide Alarm Procedure

If alarm sounds 4 quick beeps, 5 seconds off:

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 emergency services (Fire Department or 911);

Never restart the source of a 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:

Activation of the CO

Alarm indicates the presence of Carbon

Monoxide (CO) which can kill you.

What to do When the Alarm Sounds!

Welcome

Note: Many times throughout this User Guide, we will refer to

Carbon Monoxide as “CO”.

This Kidde carbon monoxide (CO) alarm is an important part of your

family’s home safety plan. This alarm has been designed and tested to

detect CO buildup in a residential environment. Your alarm is for use

speciﬁcally in the home, but not for use in a boat or recreational vehicle.

As an owner of a CO alarm, there are some basic facts you should know

about for your protection.

Many people think that CO alarms operate like smoke alarms. Like

smoke alarms, CO alarms monitor the air in your home and sound a

loud alarm to warn you of trouble. The way you respond to a CO alarm

is quite different than a smoke alarm. That’s because a house ﬁre and a

CO problem are two distinctly different situations. If your smoke alarm

were to alarm, you would quickly be able to judge the level of danger

you were in with your senses. You can see and smell the smoke, feel the

heat, see, and possibly hear the ﬁre burning. You can also readily see if

your smoke alarm is alarming in a non-emergency situation. Because your

sense of sight, smell, hearing and touch give you information, you can

almost instantly judge what action to take if you hear your smoke alarm.

CO is an invisible, odorless, tasteless and non-irritating gas – completely

undetectable to your senses. That’s why it is important to your safety

that you have a CO alarm.

Important Warning Statements

IMPORTANT: This carbon monoxide alarm is designed to detect

carbon monoxide from ANY source of combustion. It is NOT

designed to detect smoke, ﬁre, or any other gas.

WARNING: Carbon monoxide alarms are not smoke alarms.

This carbon monoxide alarm is not a substitute for installing and

maintaining an appropriate number of smoke alarms in your

home.

This carbon monoxide alarm will not sense smoke, ﬁre, or any

poisonous gas other than carbon monoxide even though carbon

monoxide can be generated by ﬁre. For this reason you must

install smoke alarms to provide early warning of ﬁre and to

protect you and your family from ﬁre and its related hazards.

CAUTION: This alarm will only indicate the presence of carbon

monoxide at the sensor. Carbon monoxide may be present in

other areas.

General Carbon Monoxide Information

Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless and tasteless poison gas that

can be fatal when inhaled. CO inhibits the blood’s capacity to carry

oxygen.

Periodically review this alarm user guide and discuss your CO alarm

emergency procedure with all the members of your family. Never ignore

a CO alarm. A true alarm is an indication of potentially dangerous levels

of CO. CO alarms are designed to alert you to the presence of CO

before an emergency – before most people would experience symptoms

of CO poisoning, giving you time to resolve the problem calmly.

Determine if anyone in the household is experiencing symptoms of CO

poisoning. Many cases of reported CO poisoning indicate that while

victims are aware they are not well, they become so disoriented they

are unable to save themselves by either exiting the building or calling

for assistance. Also, young children and household pets may be the ﬁrst

affected. You should take extra precautions to protect high-risk persons

from CO exposure because they may experience ill effects from CO at

levels that would not ordinarily affect a healthy adult.

Symptoms of CO Poisoning

The following common symptoms are related to CO poisoning and

should be discussed with ALL members of the household.

Mild Exposure:

Slight headache, nausea, vomiting, fatigue (often described as “ﬂu-like”

symptoms).

Medium Exposure:

Severe throbbing headache, drowsiness, confusion, fast heart rate.

Extreme Exposure:

Unconsciousness, convulsions, cardio-respiratory failure, death.

If you experience even mild symptoms of CO poisoning, consult your

doctor immediately!

1. Information About Carbon Monoxide

Carbon Monoxide PPM Levels

Model KN-COP-DP-10YHCA is equipped with a digital display that shows

levels of CO (displayed in PPM – parts per million). Learn the difference

between dangerous, high, mid and low levels.

Dangerous Levels:

When someone is experiencing symptoms of CO poisoning and CO

readings are generally above 100 PPM. Anytime someone is experiencing

the symptoms of CO poisoning this should be treated as an emergency.

See “What to do When the Alarm Sounds” (inside front cover).

High Levels:

Generally above 100 PPM, with no one experiencing symptoms. This

should be treated as an urgent situation. See “What to do When the Alarm

Sounds” (inside front cover).

Mid Levels:

Generally between 50 PPM to 100 PPM. This should be cause for concern

and should not be ignored or dismissed. See “What to do When the Alarm

Sounds” (inside front cover).

Low Levels:

Generally below 50 PPM. Kidde recommends you take action to eliminate

the source of CO. See “What to do When the Alarm Sounds” (inside front

cover).

Possible Sources of Carbon Monoxide

Inside your home, appliances used for heating and cooking are the most

likely sources of CO. Vehicles running in attached garages can also produce

dangerous levels of CO.

CO can be produced when burning any fossil fuel, such as gasoline,

propane, natural gas, oil and wood. It can be produced by any fuel-burning

appliance that is malfunctioning, improperly installed, or not ventilated

correctly, such as:

• Automobiles, furnaces, gas ranges/stoves, gas clothes dryers, water

heaters, portable fuel burning space heaters and generators, ﬁreplaces,

wood-burning stoves and certain swimming pool heaters.

• Blocked chimneys or ﬂues, back drafts and changes in air pressure,

corroded or disconnected vent pipes, loose or cracked furnace

exchangers.

• Vehicles and other combustion engines running in an open or closed

garage, attached or near a home.

• Burning charcoal or fuel in grills and hibachis in an enclosed area.

1. Information About Carbon Monoxide

Conditions That Can Produce Carbon Monoxide

The following conditions can result in transient CO situations:

• Excessive spillage or reverse venting of fuel-burning appliances caused

by 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).

• Negative pressure resulting from the use of exhaust fans.

• Simultaneous operation of several fuel-burning appliances competing for

limited internal air.

• Vent pipe connections vibrating loose from clothes dryers, furnaces, or

water heaters.

• Obstructions in, or unconventional, vent pipe designs which can amplify

the above situations.

• Extended operation of unvented fuel-burning devices (range, oven,

ﬁreplace, etc.).

• Temperature inversions which can trap exhaust gases near the ground.

• Vehicle idling in an open or closed garage, or near a home.

To be safe, know the possible sources of CO in your home. Keep fuel-

burning appliances and their chimneys and vents in good working

condition. Learn the early symptoms of exposure, and if you suspect CO

poisoning, move outside to fresh air and get emergency help. Your ﬁrst

line of defense is an annual inspection and regular maintenance of your

appliances. Contact a licensed contractor or call your local utility company

for assistance.

Information About Carbon Monoxide Alarms –

What They Can and Cannot Do:

CO alarms provide early warning of the presence of CO, usually before a

healthy adult would experience symptoms. This early warning is possible,

however, only if your CO alarm is located, installed and maintained as

described in this guide.

Because carbon monoxide is a cumulative poison, long-term exposures to

low levels may cause symptoms, as well as short-term exposures to high

levels. This Kidde unit has a time-weighted alarm – the higher the level of CO

present, the sooner the alarm will be triggered.

This CO alarm can only warn you of the presence of CO. It does not prevent

CO from occurring, nor can it solve an existing CO problem. If your unit

has alarmed and you’ve provided ventilation by leaving your windows and

doors open, the CO buildup may have dissipated by the time help responds.

Although your problem may appear to be temporarily solved, it’s crucial

that the source of the CO is determined and that the appropriate repairs are

made.

1. Information About Carbon Monoxide

This CO alarm is designed to act as a monitor; it is not designed for use as a

short-term testing device to perform a quick check for the presence of CO.

CO alarms have limitations. Like any other electronic device, CO alarms are

not fool-proof. CO alarms have a limited operational life. You must test your

CO alarm weekly, because it could fail to operate at any time.

If your CO alarm fails to test properly, or if its self-diagnostic test reveals a

malfunction, immediately have the unit replaced. This alarm will not monitor

CO levels while in an error condition.

CO alarms can only sense CO that reaches the unit’s sensor. It’s possible that

CO may be present in other areas without reaching the alarm. The rate and

ability that which CO reaches the alarm may be affected by:

• Doors or other obstructions.

• Fresh air from a vent, an open window or other source.

• CO being present on one level of the home and not reach a CO alarm

installed on a different level. (For example, CO in the basement may not

reach an alarm on the second level, near the bedrooms).

For these reasons, we recommend you provide complete coverage by placing

a CO alarm on every level of the home. Please carefully read all information

on properly installing this CO alarm.

CO alarms should not be used to detect the presence of natural gas

(methane), propane, butane, or other combustible fuels.
