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,COenters
the body through the lungs during the normal breathing
process. It competes with oxygen by replacing it in the red
bloodcells,therebyreducingtheowofoxygentothe
heart,brainandothervitalorgans.Inhighconcentrations,
COcankillinminutes.
Many cases of reported carbon monoxide poisoning
indicate that while victims are aware they are not feeling
well,theybecomedisorientatedandunabletosave
themselves by either exiting the building or calling for
background
6
assistance. Exposure during sleep is particularly dangerous
becausethevictimusuallydoesnotwakeup.
Symptoms of CO poisoning
The following symptoms may be related to CO poisoning
whichallhouseholdmembersshouldbemadeawareof:
• Mild Exposure:Slightheadache,nausea,vomiting,fatigue
(oftendescribedas‘u-like’symptoms).
• Medium Exposure:Severethrobbingheadache,
drowsiness,confusion,fastheartrate.
• Extreme Exposure:Unconsciousness,convulsions,
cardiorespiratoryfailure,death.
Your FireAngel CO detector monitors the level of CO as
parts per million (ppm) in the atmosphere surrounding the
detector.
35ppm The maximum allowable concentration for
continuous exposure for healthy adults in
any8hourperiod,asrecommendedbythe
Occupational Safety and Health Administration
(OSHA).
200ppm Slightheadache,fatigue,dizziness,nauseaafter
2 - 3 hours.
400ppm Frontalheadacheswithin1-2hours,life
threatening after 3 hours.
background
7
800ppm Dizziness,nauseaandconvulsionswithin45
minutes. Unconsciousness within 2 hours. Death
within 2 - 3 hours.
Should you suspect CO may be affecting you or your
family,openthedoorsandwindowsofyourproperty
toventilate,turnoffyourappliancesandevacuatethe
premises. At this time the authorities should be contacted to
locate the source of the carbon monoxide before re-entering
the building. Medical attention should be sought for anyone
suffering the effects of CO poisoning.
Common sources of CO
• Oilandgasboilers
• Portablegenerators
• Oilorsolidfuelcookers
• Gasorparafnheaters
• Barbecues
• Cloggedchimneys
• Woodorgasreplaces
• Cigarettesmoke
• Gasappliances
• Anyfossilfuelburningappliance
WARNING: This FireAngel carbon monoxide
detector is not a combustible gas detector, nor a
smoke detector. Please install the proper detectors to detect
combustible gases, or smoke.
background

This CO detector should not be seen as a substitute for the
proper installation, use and maintenance of fuel-burning
appliances (including appropriate ventilation and exhaust
systems), nor the sweeping of chimneys.
WARNING: Variables relating to your fuel burning
appliances can change at any point eg. the flue or
chimney could suddenly become blocked or damaged,
appliances may stop running correctly or circumstances
in neighbouring properties may change resulting in the
presence of carbon monoxide. For this and other reasons
do not use this carbon monoxide detector on an intermittent
basis, or as a portable detector for trying to trace one source
of the spillage of combustion products from fuelburning
appliances or from chimneys.

Caravans
Caravans 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 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 has a single
livingspacewhichincorporatesthesleepingaccommodation,
itcanbeconsideredtobeequivalenttoabedsit,andasingle

OPERATING FEATURES
Your FireAngel detector offers many features which set it apart
fromotherCOdetectorsonthemarkettoday:
Test/Reset button feature
Thisbuttonwill:
• Testthesounder,powerpackandcircuitry
• Allowsyoutotestthesensorbyintroducingasourceof
CO into the detector (see ‘Testing The Sensor’ below)
• Silence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forthesounder,power
packandcircuitryshouldbeperformedonaweeklybasis.
Testing the sensor
NOTE: We suggest the use of an incense stick or
cigarette as the way in which these products burn
produces a readable localised amount of carbon monoxide.
background
20
Alternative sources of smoke, for example an extinguished
candle or match, will not contain sufficient levels of carbon
monoxide to obtain a response from the detector during this
test. Please note your CO detector will not detect smoke.
CAUTION: Sensor testing should only be performed by
a responsible adult.
This test should only be performed annually. Excessive
testing will cause the life of the power pack to be shortened.
NOTE: Aerosol CO may be used in order to avoid
having to burn cigarettes, incense sticks etc. However we
recommend that incense sticks are used as they are cheap
and readily available.
•Readallstepsthoroughlybeforeattemptingthesensortest
Step 1 Ifthedetectoriswallorceilingmountedunhook
the detector from the screws.
Step 2 Cover the sounder vents with one hand. Press and
hold the Test/Reset button down with your thumb/
finger until the Fault LED illuminates yellow and
the sounder sounds for a second time (this should
happenafteraround5seconds).Releasethe
Test/Reset button. Upon releasing the Test/Reset
buttontheFaultLEDwillashyellowonceevery
