First Alert SCO501CN-3ST Wireless Interconnected Combination Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Alarm User Manual

1. تعارف

This manual provides essential information for the proper installation, operation, and maintenance of your First Alert SCO501CN-3ST Wireless Interconnected Combination Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Alarm. This device is designed to detect both smoke and carbon monoxide (CO) hazards, offering enhanced safety for your home. It features wireless interconnection capabilities, allowing multiple alarms to communicate and activate simultaneously throughout your residence.

2. حفاظتی معلومات

Carbon monoxide is an invisible, odorless, and deadly gas that can be produced by any fuel-burning appliance. CO alarms detect this poisonous gas and provide early warning. For maximum protection, it is recommended to use both ionization and photoelectric sensing technologies. This alarm incorporates a photoelectric smoke sensor, designed to reduce false alarms from cooking smoke or shower steam, and an advanced electrochemical CO sensor.

Common Sources of Carbon Monoxide

Carbon monoxide can originate from various household appliances and systems. Be aware of potential sources such as:

• بھٹیاں
• ڈرائر وینٹ
• چمنیاں
• پانی کے ہیٹر
• Gas stoves and ovens
• آگ بجھانے
• Automobiles in attached garages

تجویز کردہ جگہ کا تعین

Install smoke alarms on every level of your home and in every bedroom. Carbon monoxide alarms should also be placed on every level and in every bedroom. Avoid placing alarms in 'dead zones' where walls and ceilings meet, as smoke detectors are less effective in these areas.
