Attention: This manual should be read prior to use 

 and retained for further information.

The Wireless Carbon Monoxide Alarm is a 3V battery powered wireless 

detector intended for use with a compatible wireless alarm system.

The detector consists of an electrochemical carbon monoxide sensor assembly 

coupled to a wireless transmitter. The Wireless Carbon Monoxide Alarm commu-

nicates with the control panel and can send alarm, tamper and battery condition 

messages to the system’’s receiver. Refer to the wireless system’’s instruction for 

the maximum number of transmitters that can be supported.

IMPORTANT: This detector must be tested and maintained regularly following 

NFPA 720 requirements.

This device is designed to protect individuals from the acute effects of carbon 

monoxide exposure. It will not fully safeguard individuals with speci c medical 

conditions. If in doubt consult a medical practitioner.

            

This product is intended for use in ordinary indoor residential areas. It is not 

designed to measure compliance with Occupational Safety & Health 

Administration (OSHA) commercial and industrial standards.

The Wireless Carbon Monoxide Alarm contains a sounder which generates the ANSI 

S3.41 temporal 4 pattern in an alarm condition (see Table 1 for temporal 4 pattern). 

In alarm, a message is also sent to the control panel and the detector’’s ID is displayed at 

the console. During an alarm condition, pressing the detector’’s hush button will silence 

the sounder for  ve minutes. The mounting base installation is simpli ed by the incorpo-

ration of features compatible for both drywall fasteners (not supplied) and other methods.

Tricolored LED (green, yellow, red) and a sounder on the detector provide local 

visual and audible indication of the detector’’s status as listed in Table 1.

During initial power-up the LED blinks alternately green, yellow then red. 

It takes about 60 seconds for the detector’’s CO sensor to stabilize.

After power-up has completed and the detector is functioning normally, the green 

LED blinks once every 12 seconds.

Table 1. Detector status and indication

Detector Trouble: When the sensor supervision is in trouble condition, the yellow 

LED blinks once every six seconds and there is a chirp every 45 seconds. After 

12 hours the panel will display a loss of supervision message.

Detector end of life feature: When the detector has reached the end of its life, 

the yellow LED blinks once every 23 seconds and there is a chirp every 

45 seconds. After 12 hours the panel will display a loss of supervision message.

This indicates that the CO sensor inside the detector has passed the end of its life 

and the detector must be replaced. The detector lifespan is  ve years from 

the date of manufacture. Refer to DETECTOR REPLACEMENT section.

Low Battery Detection: The Wireless Carbon Monoxide Alarm is powered by 

a single 3-volt CR123A Panasonic Lithium battery (included). The detector regu-

larly checks for a low battery. If a low battery is detected, the transmitter sends 

a low battery message to the control panel, which displays the detector’’s ID at 

low battery. In addition, the yellow LED of the detector will blink every 12 seconds. 

The detector’’s sounder will chirp every 45 seconds (yellow LED continues to 

blink) until the battery is replaced. Pressing the hush button will silence the chirps 

for 12 hours, if no other trouble conditions exist. The battery should be replaced 

WHEN the chirps begin. Be sure to replace the battery with a fresh one.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the 

following two conditions: 1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and 

2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that

may cause undesired operation.

Unauthorized changes or modi cations could void the user’’s authority to operate 

the equipment.

To replace the battery:

1. Remove the detector from its mounting base by twisting the detector counter-

clockwise. Remove and dispose of the battery according to your local regulations.

2. To ensure proper power-down sequence, wait a minimum of 20 seconds before

installing new battery.

3. Install a new 3-volt CR123A Panasonic Lithium battery (available from your

Panasonic dealer) in the battery compartment. Follow the polarity diagram inside 

the compartment. If the battery is incorrectly inserted please remove gently with a 

non-conductive tool and correctly reinsert.

4. Reinstall the detector onto the mounting base by turning the detector clockwise.

5. After the power-up sequence the green LED should blink about once every

12 seconds to indicate normal operation. If the battery is not installed correctly, the 

detector will not operate and the battery may be damaged. If the detector does not  

power-up, check for correct battery installation and for a fully charged battery.

CONSTANT EXPOSURES TO HIGH OR LOW TEMPERATURES OR HIGH 

HUMIDITY MAY REDUCE BATTERY LIFE.

Refer to the appropiate compatible control panel programming guide for the proper 

procedure required to enroll the wireless carbon monoxide alarm into the system.

Note: These alarm devices should only be installed and commissioned by a com-

petent engineer/technician.

First, determine the best location for the detector, one that provides proper carbon 

monoxide detection (see Figure 2 for suggested detection locations) .

Wall-mounted detectors should be positioned at least as high as a light switch, 

and at least six inches (15cm) from the ceiling. In a ceiling location, the detector 

should be at least 12 inches (30cm) from any wall.

Where to install, ideally:

- Within 10 feet (3m) of a sleeping area

- Inside the bedroom if it contains a fuel burning appliance

- On every  oor of the building

- Ideally, install in any room that contains a fuel burning appliance

- If the appliance or the room is not normally used, such as the boiler room, 

the detector should be placed just outside the room so the alarm can be heard 

more easily

Where NOT to install, ideally:

- Directly above a sink, cooker, stove or oven

- Do not locate detector within 5 feet (1.5m) of any cooking appliance

- Next to a door or window that would be affected by drafts i.e. extractor fan or air 

vent

- Outside

- Do not install in any environment that does not comply with the detector’’s environ-

mental speci cations

- In or below a cupboard

- Where air  ow would be obstructed by curtains or furniture

- Where dirt or dust could collect and block the sensor

- Where it could be knocked, damaged, or inadvertently removed

Fig 2. Detector Location Diagram

Once a suitable location is found, mount the detector as follows:

1. Refer to the diagram below and install the mounting base on the ceiling or on

the wall (if local ordinances permit) using screw locations as required. Use the two 

screws and anchors provided. Maneuver the base so the screws are at the elbow 

of the screw slots and secure.

2. Fit the detector inside the base by aligning it over the base as shown (detector’’s

alignment notch should be slightly offset from mounting base tamper release tab),
