Part One – Your Nighthawk CO Alarm

In the garage, vehicle exhaust can contain some carbon monox-

ide. These levels are higher when the engine is first started. Within

hours of starting a vehicle and backing it out of the garage, the lev-

els present over time can activate the alarm and become a nuisance.

In the kitchen and furnace room, some gas appliances can emit a

short burst of carbon monoxide upon start-up. This is normal. If

your CO alarm is mounted too close to these appliances, it may

alarm often and become a nuisance.

If you must install a Nighthawk CO alarm near a cooking or heat-

ing appliance, install

AT LEAST

5 feet away from appliance.

Do not install in excessively dusty, dirty or greasy areas such as

kitchens, garages and furnace rooms. Dust grease or household

chemicals can contaminate or coat the alarm’s sensor, causing the

alarm not to operate properly.

Do not obstruct the vents located at the top and bottom of the

alarm. Place the alarm where drapes, furniture or other objects do

not block the flow of air to the vents.

Do not install in dead air space, such as peaks of vaulted ceilings

or gabled roofs, where carbon monoxide may not reach the sen-

sor in time to provide early warning.

Do not install in turbulent air from ceiling fans. Do not install near

doors and windows that open to the outside, near fresh air vents,

or anywhere that is drafty. Rapid air circulation from fans or fresh

air from outside may cause the sensor to display an inaccurate

reading in the presence of CO.

Do not install this alarm in a switch- or dimmer-controlled outlet.

Do not install in areas where the temperature is colder than 40˚F

(4.4˚C) or hotter than 100˚F (37.8˚C). These areas include uncondi-

tioned crawl spaces, attics, porches and garages. Extreme tempera-

tures will affect the sensitivity of the alarm.

Do not install CO alarm near deep cell large batteries. Large bat-

teries have emissions that can cause the alarm to perform at less

than optimum performance.

Where to Install Your CO Alarm

Your Nighthawk CO alarm should be mounted in or near bed-

rooms and living areas. It is recommended that you install a

Nighthawk CO alarm on each level of a multi-level home. You

may use the number and location of smoke alarms installed in

your home according to current building code requirements as a

guide to the location of your Nighthawk CO alarm(s).

WHEN CHOOSING YOUR INSTALLATION LOCATIONS,

MAKE SURE YOU CAN HEAR THE ALARM FROM ALL SLEEP-

ING AREAS. IF YOU INSTALL ONLY ONE CARBON MONOX-

IDE ALARM IN YOUR HOME, INSTALL THE ALARM NEAR

BEDROOMS, NOT IN THE BASEMENT OR FURNACE ROOM.

Two self-adhesive labels are included with the CO alarm. Add

the phone number of your emergency service provider in the

space provided. Place one label next to the alarm and one label

near a fresh air source such as a door or window

CAUTION: This alarm will only indicate the presence of carbon

monoxide at the sensor. Carbon monoxide may be present in

other areas.

IMPORTANT: Improper location can affect the sensitive elec-

tronic components in this alarm. Please see the next section

describing where NOT to install this alarm.

Where Not

to Install Your CO Alarm

To avoid causing damage to the unit, to provide optimum pro-

tection, and to prevent unnecessary alarms, follow the direc-

tions below where NOT to install this alarm:

It is not recommended that you install this CO alarm in garages,

kitchens or furnace rooms. Installation in these areas could lead to

nuisance alarms, may expose the sensor to substances that could

damage or contaminate it, or the alarm may not be heard by

persons in other areas of the home, especially if they are sleeping.
