CARBON MONOXIDE
AND HOW IT CAN AFFECT YOU
AND YOUR FAMILY
Carbon monoxide is a dangerous, poisonous gas that
kills hundreds of people each year and injures many
more. It is often referred to as the silent killer because it
has no odour or taste and cannot be seen. Like oxygen,

WHERE TO
INSTALL YOUR DETECTOR
This CO alarm is suitable for
use in domestic premises
(caravan holiday homes),
caravans, motor caravans and boats.
The following advice is applicable to all intended
applications, there are special instructions at the end of
this section relating to positioning in caravan holiday
homes, caravans, motor caravans and boats.
WARNING: This detector will only indicate the presence
of carbon monoxide gas at the sensor. Carbon monoxide
gas may be present in other areas.
In which room should the detector be installed?
Ideally, an apparatus should be installed in every
room containing a fuel-burning appliance. Additional
apparatus may be installed to ensure that adequate
warning is given for occupants in other rooms, by
locating apparatus in:
• Remote rooms in which the occupant(s) spend
considerable time whilst awake and from which they
may not be able to hear an alarm from apparatus in
another part of the premises, and;
• Every sleeping room.
However, if there is a fuel-burning appliance in more
than one room and the number of apparatus is limited,
9
the following points should be considered when
deciding where best to put the apparatus:
• Locate the apparatus in a room containing a flueless or
open-flued appliance, and;
• Locate apparatus in a room where the occupant(s)
spend most time.
• If the domestic premises is a bedsit (a single room
serving as both sitting and bedroom) then the
apparatus should be put as far from the cooking
appliances as possible but near to where the person
sleeps.
• If the appliance is in a room not normally used (for
example a boiler room), the apparatus should be put
just outside the room so that the alarm may be heard
more easily. Alternatively, a remote alarm siren may be
connected to a type A apparatus located in a room(s)
containing a fuel-burning appliance.
Where in the room should I place the detector?
Apparatus located in the same room as a fuel-burning
appliance, for both wall and ceiling mounted apparatus
the following applies:
a. The apparatus should be at a horizontal distance of
between 1m and 3m from the potential source.
b. If there is a partition in a room, the apparatus should
be located on the same side of the partition as the
potential source.
c. Carbon monoxide detectors in rooms with sloped
ceilings should be located at the high side of the
room.

In addition to the above the following must be observed if
the apparatus is located on a wall:
a.It should be located close to the ceiling;
b.It should be located at a height greater than the height
of any door or window;
c.It should be at least 150mm from the ceiling.
If the apparatus is located on the ceiling it should be at
least 300mm from any wall and any ceiling obstruction
e.g. light fittings.
Apparatus located in sleeping rooms or located in rooms
remote from the fuel-burning appliance should be located
relatively close to the breathing zone of the occupants.
Caravans and boats
Caravans and boats may have additional risks of carbon
monoxide ingress through air vents due to the nearby
presence of other vehicles, engines, generators or
barbecues, however this does not change the basic
guidance on location of the alarm. Caravans and boats
should be fitted with an alarm in the same room as any
combustion appliance(s), located in accordance with
previous advice in this section. If the caravan or boat
has a single living space which incorporates the sleeping
accommodation, it can be considered to be equivalent to
a bedsit, and a single alarm is sufficient. However, any
sleeping accommodation which is in a separate room
from the combustion appliance(s) should also contain an
alarm, located in accordance with previous advice in this
section.
11
It is not always possible to find an optimum location
for an apparatus, for example, a small caravan may not
have suitable vertical surfaces available. Nevertheless,
when fitting an apparatus in such situations, the two most
important considerations when selecting an appropriate
location are:
• Not mounting the apparatus directly above a source of
heat or steam; and
• Mounting the apparatus at a distance of 1 – 3 m from
the nearest edge of the potential source.
HOW TO
INSTALL YOUR DETECTOR
NOTE: This apparatus should be installed by a competent
person who feels able to install it according to the

This should be continued for the lifetime of the product.
WARNING: Prolonged exposure to the sounder in close
proximity to your ears may damage your hearing.
Under normal operating conditions, the power pack will
last for the lifetime of the product ie. 10 years.
The detector will not protect against the risk of carbon
monoxide poisoning when the power pack has drained.
WARNING: Prolonged exposure to extreme high or low
temperatures may reduce the life of the power pack.
POWER PACK DEACTIVATION
Your CO-9X-10 is portable, making it ideal for taking
with you on holiday. You will need to deactivate your
detector when travelling or even when storing e.g. when
decorating. Fitting is the reverse of removal.
The clip must
remain in the
disabling socket
to keep the power
pack deactivated.
15
To deactivate the detector the two ends of the metal clip
must be inserted into the corresponding holes in the
disabling socket located on the underside of the detector.
You can ensure that the product is disabled by pressing
the test button - if there is no sound from the sounder then
the clip has been fitted correctly.
NOTE: If the disabling tab is no longer available then the
clip can be replicated by opening out a thin metal paper
clip into a U-shape.
OPERATING FEATURES
Your detector offers many features which set it apart from
other CO detectors on the market today:
Test/Reset button feature
• Tests the sounder, power pack and circuitry.
• Allows you to test the sensor by introducing a source
of CO into the detector.
• Silences the loud 85dB (at 1 metre (3 feet)) sounder
during an alarm (only for alarms due to levels of CO of
less than 50ppm).
Testing the sounder, power pack and circuitry
Test the sounder, power pack and circuitry by pressing
and releasing the Test/Reset button to confirm that the
detector is operating properly. The sounder should sound
as soon as the button is pressed, and the Alarm LED will
illuminate red indicating that the sounder is working and
the power pack is providing power to the unit. This test
should be performed on a weekly basis.

(this should happen after around 5 seconds).
Release the Test/Reset button. Upon releasing the
Test/Reset button the Fault LED will flash amber
once every second. This indicates that the
sampling rate of the detector has increased and
can be tested using a known source of CO.
Step 3 Light an incense stick using a match or lighter.
Be sure to blow out the flame so that the incense
stick is smouldering. Extinguish the lighter, or put
out the match and place it into a dish of water.

Turn the detector on its side so that the vents on
the right hand side of the detector are pointing
downwards. Hold the burning incense stick
15 cm (6 inches) below the detector, so that the
smoke enters the vents on the side of the
detector. An increase in the localised carbon
monoxide level within the sensor to more than
50ppm will cause the sounder to sound for one
cycle of four loud beeps and the Fault LED to
illuminate amber for a short time. This is the end
of the test.
The Fault LED will no longer flash amber and the
detector will go back to normal operating mode
i.e. the Power LED will flash green once every
minute (it may take up to two minutes of
exposure for the localised level of carbon
monoxide within the sensor to reach over
50ppm). Now move the source of CO away from
the detector as the test is finished.
Step 5 After step 4, put out the incense stick by placing
it into a dish of water. Ensure that all flames
have been extinguished.
NOTE: If the localised carbon monoxide level within the
sensor does not reach 50ppm during the test, the sensor
test will stop automatically after 3 minutes.

• Within 3 minutes when exposed to 300ppm or more
of CO.
Fault / low power pack signal:
The unit continuously checks the settings of its sensor and
circuitry. If any of these settings are found to be incorrect
or if the power pack becomes low then the detector will
emit a single chirp once per minute and the Fault LED will
flash amber once per minute for up to 30 days.
End of life signal: This unit incorporates an “end of life”
signal. This means that 10 years after activation, the unit
will emit a single chirp once per minute and the fault LED
will flash amber once per minute for up to 30 days.

Maintenance
Your detector will alert you to potentially hazardous CO
concentrations in your home when maintained properly.
To maintain your detector in proper working order, and
to ensure that the sensor will last for the lifetime of the
product, it is recommended that you:
• Test the sounder, power pack and circuitry of your
detector at least once per week by pressing the Test/
Reset button briefly.
• Perform the sensor test monthly.
• Keep the detector free of dust by gently vacuuming the
case with a soft brush attachment every 3 months.
To prevent the possibility of contaminating the sensor in
your detector and thus affecting its reliability:
21
• Never use cleaning solutions on your detector. Simply
wipe with a slightly damp cloth.
• Do not paint the detector.
• Do not spray aerosols on or near the detector.
• Do not use any solvent based products near the
detector.
• If installing in a caravan or boat there maybe other
substances present, that may not normally be found
in the home, that could effect the reliability of the CO
alarm. Avoid using the following in close proximity to
the alarm; oils, cleaning fluids, polishes, paints and
greases.
• Move the detector to a safe location and store in
a plastic bag before painting, wall papering, or
performing any other activities using substances that
emit strong fumes. Remember to remove it from the
bag and replace the detector when these activities are
finished.
Failure of any test should be reported to the Technical
Support team.
Do not attempt to repair your CO detector. Do not remove
any screws or open the main casing of your detector.
Any attempt to do so may cause malfunction and will
invalidate the warranty.

WHAT TO DO IN
THE EVENT OF AN ALARM
WARNING: A loud alarm is a warning that unusually
high and potentially lethal levels of carbon monoxide are
present. Never ignore this alarm, further exposure can be
fatal. Immediately check residents for symptoms of carbon
monoxide poisoning, and contact the proper authorities to
resolve all CO problems. NEVER IGNORE ANY ALARM.
Please carefully review this user manual to ensure that
you know what actions to take in the event of an alarm.
What to do during an alarm
• Keep calm and open the doors and windows to
ventilate the property.
• Stop using all fuel-burning appliances and ensure, if
possible, that they are turned off.
• Evacuate the property leaving the doors and windows
open.
• Ring your gas or other fuel supplier on their
emergency number; keep the number in a prominent
place.
Write your fuel supplier’s emergency number here:
• Do not re-enter the property until the alarm has
stopped. When exposed to fresh air it can take up to 10
23
minutes for the sensor to clear and the alarm to stop
depending on the level of carbon monoxide detected.
• Get medical help immediately for anyone suffering
the effects of carbon monoxide poisoning (headache,
nausea), and advise that carbon monoxide poisoning
is suspected.
• Do not use the appliances again until they have been
checked by an expert. In the case of gas appliances the
engineer must be registered on the Gas Safe register.
