7. Maintenance

NOTE: This unit is sealed. The cover is not removable.

Due to the loudness of the alarm, we suggest that you place your

fingers over the sounder opening while testing your alarm.

Caution: Continuous exposure to the high sound level of this

alarm over an extended period of time may cause hearing loss.

Testing

To test the alarm, press the Test/Reset button. If the unit is operating

properly, you will hear 4 quick beeps – followed by 5 seconds of silence

– followed by 4 quick beeps. The display will show three “eights” and

then show a number – usually around 200). Within several seconds the

unit will return to monitor for CO.

Note: You do not need to press the Test button to take a CO

reading.

Battery Replacement

NOTE: This CO alarm is not battery operated. However, these alarms

are equipped with 8 volt Lithium Ion battery backup – the 8 volt battery

is to supply short term back-up during a power outage.

WARNING: Replace the battery pack only with a Kidde

rechargeable battery pack. Replacement battery packs can be

purchased from Kidde customer service.

Upon initial power up or after the alarm has operated on battery backup

and depending on the charge state of the battery, it could take up to 20

hours to FULLY charge the battery.

During the first 10-hour initial charge period or, until the battery has

charged, “Lb” will be displayed along with the CO level (usually “0”)

and without an audible “beep”. When the initial charge is complete, the

“Lb” will disappear. If however, after 10 hours the battery is not

charging properly, “Lb” may continue to flash AND there will be an

audible “beep” once every 15 seconds indicating the battery is not

charging. If this occurs, make sure the connection between the battery

and the alarm is correctly oriented and fully seated. If not, disconnect

the battery and reconnect insuring the alignment ribs match the slot in

the battery. If it is properly connected and fully seated and “Lb” is still

displayed along with an audible “beep”, contact customer service.
