7. Naudojimo instrukcijos
7.1 Signalizacijos testavimas
Paspauskite ir palaikykite Bandymas / Tyla button on the front of the alarm for a few seconds. The alarm should sound a loud siren and announce "Carbon Monoxide! Evacuate!" or similar. Test your alarm weekly to ensure proper function.
7.2 Signalizacijos nutildymas
If the alarm sounds due to a known, non-emergency condition (e.g., temporary CO from a gas stove), you can press the Bandymas / Tyla button to temporarily silence it. The alarm will reset after a few minutes if the CO levels return to normal. If CO levels remain high, the alarm will reactivate.
7.3 Voice and Location Feature
When CO is detected, the alarm will not only sound a siren but also provide a clear voice message, such as "WARNING! Carbon Monoxide! Evacuate!" If programmed, it will also announce the location of the alarm (e.g., "Basement").
7.4 Ką daryti, kai skamba žadintuvas
- Immediately move to fresh air outdoors or open doors/windows.
- Call your emergency services (e.g., 911) or the fire department.
- Do not re-enter the premises until it has been cleared by emergency responders and the CO source has been identified and corrected.
8. Priežiūra
