3. Naudojimo instrukcijos

Once installed and powered, the Kidde KN-COPP-3 operates continuously to monitor CO levels.

3.1. Digital LED Display

The digital display continuously shows the level of carbon monoxide the sensor is detecting in parts per million (PPM). This reading updates every 15 seconds. A blinking dot in the lower right-hand corner indicates normal operation.

Figure 5: The digital LED display showing a reading of "0" PPM, indicating no carbon monoxide detected.

3.2. Alarm Operation

If unhealthy levels of carbon monoxide are detected, the alarm will emit four quick audible beats every five seconds. The digital display will show the detected CO level. The alarm will continue until CO levels decrease or the Test/Reset button is pressed.

3.3. Peak Level Memory

Press the "Peak Level" button to view the highest CO concentration recorded by the alarm since it was last reset or unplugged. This feature is useful for understanding past exposure levels.

3.4. Smart-Hush Button

The "Test/Reset" button also functions as a Smart-Hush button. Pressing it will temporarily silence the alarm for approximately 8 minutes. This is useful for silencing nuisance alarms caused by temporary conditions like cooking fumes or shower steam. The alarm will reactivate if CO levels remain high or increase.

4. Priežiūra

Regular maintenance ensures the continued reliability of your carbon monoxide detector.

• Savaitinis testavimas: Press and hold the "Test/Reset" button for a few seconds until the alarm sounds. This verifies the unit's electronic circuitry and horn are working.
• Baterijos keitimas: The 9-volt backup battery should be replaced annually, or immediately if the unit indicates a low battery warning (usually a chirp or specific display message).
• Valymas: Gently vacuum or wipe the exterior of the detector with a soft, damp cloth at least once a month to remove dust and debris that could obstruct the sensor. Do not use cleaning solvents or sprays.
• Unit Replacement: Carbon monoxide detectors have a limited lifespan. The Kidde KN-COPP-3 has a 7-year life. Replace the unit after 7 years from the date of manufacture (found on the back of the unit) or immediately if it indicates an end-of-life warning.
