All First Alert

®

Smoke Alarms conform to regulatory requirements,

including UL217 and are designed to detect particles of combustion.

Smoke particles of varying number and size are produced in all fires.

Ionization technology is generally more sensitive than photoelectric

technology at detecting small particles, which tend to be produced

in greater amounts by flaming fires, which consume combustible

materials rapidly and spread quickly. Sources of these fires may include

paper burning in a wastebasket, or a grease fire in the kitchen.

Photoelectric technology is generally more sensitive than ionization

technology at detecting large particles, which tend to be produced in

greater amounts by smoldering fires, which may smolder for hours

before bursting into flame. Sources of these fires may include cigarettes

burning in couches or bedding.

For maximum protection, use both types of Smoke Alarms on each

level and in every bedroom of your home.

INTRODUCTION

FIRE SAFETY TIPS

Follow safety rules and prevent hazardous situations: 1) Use smoking

materials properly. Never smoke in bed. 2) Keep matches or lighters away

from children; 3) Store flammable materials in proper containers; 4) Keep

electrical appliances in good condition and don't overload electrical circuits;

5) Keep stoves, barbecue grills, fireplaces and chimneys grease- and debris-

free; 6) Never leave anything cooking on the stove unattended; 7) Keep

portable heaters and open flames, like candles, away from flammable

materials; 8) Don't let rubbish accumulate.

Keep alarms clean, and test them weekly. Replace alarms immediately if

they are not working properly. Smoke Alarms that do not work cannot alert

you to a fire. Keep at least one working fire extinguisher on every floor, and

an additional one in the kitchen. Have fire escape ladders or other reliable

means of escape from an upper floor in case stairs are blocked.

BASIC SAFETY INFORMATION

• Dangers, Warnings, and Cautions alert you to important

operating instructions or to potentially hazardous situations.

Pay special attention to these items.

• This Smoke/CO Alarm is approved for use in single-family

residences. It is NOT designed for marine or RV use.

• This combination Smoke/Carbon Monoxide Alarm has two separate

alarms. The CO Alarm is not designed to detect fire or any other

gas. It will only indicate the presence of carbon monoxide gas at

the sensor. Carbon monoxide gas may be present in other areas.

The Smoke Alarm will only indicate the presence of smoke that

reaches the sensor. The Smoke Alarm is not designed to sense gas,

heat or flames.

• This Smoke/CO Alarm cannot operate without working batteries.

Removing the batteries for any reason, or failing to replace the

batteries at the end of their service life, removes your protection.

• NEVER ignore any alarm. See "If Your Smoke/CO Alarm Sounds" for

more information on how to respond to an alarm. Failure to

respond can result in injury or death.

• The Silence Features are for your convenience only and will not

correct a problem. See "Using the Silence Features" for details.

Always check your home for a potential problem after any alarm.

Failure to do so can result in injury or death.

• Test this Smoke/CO Alarm once a week. If the Alarm ever fails to

test correctly, have it replaced immediately! If the Alarm is not

working properly, it cannot alert you to a problem.

• This product is intended for use in ordinary indoor locations of

family living units. It is not designed to measure CO levels in

compliance with Occupational Safety and Health Administration

(OSHA) commercial or industrial standards. Individuals with

medical conditions that may make them more sensitive to carbon

monoxide may consider using warning devices which provide

audible and visual signals for carbon monoxide concentrations

under 30 ppm. For additional information on carbon monoxide

and your medical condition contact your physician.
