Frequently Asked Questions - 2030-DCR KIDDE

What should I do when the CO alarm sounds?

Immediately open all doors and windows to ventilate. Turn off all fuel-burning appliances if possible. If the alarm continues, evacuate the premises, leaving doors and windows open. Call emergency services (0800 111 999) and seek medical help for anyone showing symptoms of CO poisoning. Do not re-enter until the source is fixed.

How often should I test the alarm?

Test the alarm weekly by pressing and releasing the test button. The alarm should emit 4 loud beeps and the red LED flash. If it does not sound, or the sound is erratic or low, replace the unit immediately.

What does a single chirp every 60 seconds mean?

A single chirp with an amber LED blink indicates a low battery. Press the test button to silence for 24 hours and replace the batteries within 30 days. If the chirp is two quick chirps every 60 seconds with amber LED, it signals End of Unit Life (after 10 years) – replace the alarm as soon as possible.

How do I replace the batteries?

Slide the alarm off its backplate. Insert two new AA alkaline batteries (Duracell MN1500, MX1500, Gold Peak 15A, Golden Power GLR6A, or Energizer E91) following the polarity markings. Do not use lithium batteries. Reattach the backplate and test the alarm.

What is the expected lifespan of this CO alarm?

The alarm should be replaced 10 years after the date code printed on the side of the unit. After 10 years, the alarm will enter End of Unit Life mode, emitting 2 chirps every 60 seconds. You can silence this for up to 7 days, then it must be replaced.

Can I install this alarm in a bathroom or garage?

No. Avoid locations with high humidity (bathrooms, showers) above 90% RH, dusty areas, garages, near heaters or air conditioning vents, or where temperature may go below -10°C or above 40°C. Also avoid within 1 m of cooking appliances or directly above sinks or washing machines.

How do I clean the CO alarm?

Clean at least once a year. Use compressed air or a vacuum cleaner hose to blow or vacuum through the openings around the perimeter. Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth (water only). Do not use detergents, solvents, or spray aerosols near the alarm. After cleaning, test the alarm.

What does a continuous amber LED and chirp every 30 seconds indicate?

This indicates a Fault condition. If the amber LED blinks 3 times per 30 seconds with a chirp, it is a Memory Fault – press test button to reset. If 5 blinks per 30 seconds, it is a CO Fault – clean the alarm and reset. If the fault persists, replace the alarm.

Is this alarm suitable for use in caravans or boats?

No. This alarm is designed for residential indoor use only. It has not been tested for caravans or boats. For those applications, use a CO alarm certified to EN 50291-2.

What does the alarm memory feature do?

If the alarm has detected a CO event of 100 ppm or more within the last 14 days, the red LED will blink once every 60 seconds. This is Alarm Memory. To clear it, press the test/reset button. This helps identify that CO was present even after the alarm stops.

1. Carbon Monoxide Alarm: What To Do When the Alarm Sounds

The carbon monoxide (CO) alarm pattern is four quick beeps repeating every 5 seconds. The red LED blinks in sync with the beep pattern.

WARNING: CARBON MONOXIDE ALARM ACTIVATION INDICATES THE PRESENCE OF CARBON MONOXIDE (CO) AT HIGH CONCENTRATIONS WHICH CAN KILL YOU.

Based on recommendations from EN 50292, follow these steps if alarm sounds:

1. Keep calm and open all doors and windows. Turn off all fuel-burning appliances if possible. Note: it is possible that outdoor conditions could influence domestic CO alarms (bad traffic pollution in cold weather, for example). In these circumstances, the level of indoor CO might actually increase when doors and windows are opened.
2. If the alarm continues to sound, even after being reset (where appropriate), then evacuate the premises, alerting other occupants to the risk. Leave doors and windows open. Do not re-enter the premises.
3. Get medical help for anyone suffering the effects of CO poisoning, and advise that CO inhalation is suspected.
4. Call Gas Emergency Services: 0800 111 999, or your local Gas Safe Registered Engineer:

6. Recommended Locations for CO Alarms

Note: CO alarms should be installed following the guidance of relevant local standards, such as EN50292.

• Whether the alarm is wall-mounted or ceiling mounted, place the alarm a horizontal distance of between 1 metre and 3 metres from a fuel burning appliance.
• When mounting the alarm on the wall, use an inside wall with the top edge of the alarm at a minimum of 150 mm below the ceiling. The bottom of the alarm should also be at a level greater than the height of any door or window.
• Locate within hearing distance of bedrooms* and place at sleeping height if a heating appliance is in the bedroom.
  • CO alarms in rooms with sloped ceilings should be located on the high side of the room.
• Ceiling mounted alarms should be at least 300 mm from any wall.
• If there is a partition in the room, locate the alarm on the same side of the partition as the potential source.
  * A CO alarm should be installed in all rooms containing a fuel burning appliance. Additional CO alarms should be installed in rooms where most awake time is spent, in every sleeping area, and on every level of the home.

7. Locations to Avoid

• In the garage. Products of combustion are present when you start your motor vehicle.
• Do not install alarms adjacent to, or directly above, heaters or air-conditioning vents.
• In very humid areas (above 90% RH, non-condensing), such as bathrooms and shower rooms. Do not install directly above a sink, or near dishwashers or washing machines. Moisture or steam can cause nuisance alarms.
• Do not install within 1 m of heating or cooking appliances, measured horizontally.
• In an area where the temperature may fall below -10^ or rise above 40^ such as garages and unfinished attics.
• Do not install alarms in dusty areas. Dust particles may cause nuisance alarm or failure to alarm.
  • In insect-infested areas.
• Within 300 mm of a light fitting, as electronic "noise" generated by the electronics may cause nuisance alarms.
• Do not install in an enclosed space (cupboard) or where the ventilation openings in the unit could be impeded by items such as newspapers, table-cloths, furniture, curtains, etc.
• Do not install next to a door, window, extractor fan, flue, chimney, or any other area where high air flow may occur or the unit may be directly exposed to weather.
• Do not install in locations that are difficult or dangerous to reach for testing or maintenance.

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS PRODUCT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.

8. Installation / Activation

CAUTION: THIS UNIT IS SEALED. THE COVER IS NOT REMOVABLE!

NOTE: YOUR CO ALARM MUST BE INSTALLED BY A COMPETENT PERSON, AND IS TO BE INSTALLED ACCORDING TO THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

12. General Carbon Monoxide (CO) Information

What is Carbon Monoxide?

Carbon monoxide (CO) is a highly poisonous gas with no taste, colour or smell.

Potential Sources of CO

• Wood-burning stoves
  • Gas boilers and fires
  Gas Hobs
  • Oil and coal burning appliances
• Portable gas heaters
• Blocked flues and chimneys
  • Fumes from integral garages
• Barbecues
  • High concentrations of tobacco smoke

This CO alarm is not a substitute for proper installation, use and maintenance of fuel burning appliances including appropriate ventilation and exhaust systems. Carbon monoxide can be produced from poorly burning appliances or from blocked flues and chimneys.

If your alarm has sounded and you have ventilated the room, the CO may have dispersed before help arrives. It is crucial that the source of CO is determined and appropriate maintenance carried out.

Carbon monoxide is a cumulative poison. Long term exposure to low levels may cause symptoms.

This alarm is time-weighted – the higher the level of CO, the sooner it will alarm.

NOTE: The apparatus may respond to brief exhaust gas emissions, for example during the initial start-up of an appliance. Also, hydrogen acts as an interferent and can arise from some battery charging activities and the curing of concrete or cement under certain circumstances. Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), e.g. alcohols, which may eventually activate the alarm, can be generated from use of damp-proofing materials or other coatings containing alkylalkoxysilanes.

The table below shows the effects of different levels of CO poisoning on the body;

Parts per Million (PPM)	Effects on Adults
100 Slight headache, nausea, fatigue (flu-like symptoms)
200 Dizziness and headache within 2 – 3 hours
400	Nausea, frontal headache, drowsiness, confusion and rapid heart rate. Risk to life after over 3 hours of exposure
800 Severe headaches, convulsions, vital organ failures. Death possible within 2 – 3 hours

⚠ WARNING: The device cannot warn against the chronic effects of exposure to carbon monoxide or protect individuals who are at specific risk.

NOTE: If you recognise any of the above symptoms consult your Doctor immediately.

NOTE: Young children, elderly and pets are more susceptible to the dangers of CO.

NOTE: Your Kidde alarm is designed to detect CO gas. It is not designed to detect other gas such as natural gas.

NOTE: This product is intended for use in ordinary family homes. It is not designed to measure compliance with occupational safety and the HSE.

NOTE: Individuals with certain specific medical conditions may need an alarm that operates below 30ppm. If this applies consult your Doctor.

IMPORTANT: Ensure that all family members are familiar with the symptoms of CO poisoning and how your alarm works. To be safe, know the possible sources of CO in your home. Keep fuel burning appliances and their chimneys and vents in good working condition. Learn the early symptoms of exposure, and if you suspect CO poisoning, move outside to fresh air and get emergency help. Your first line of defence is an annual inspection and regular maintenance of your appliances. Contact a licensed contractor or call your local utility company for assistance. In rented properties your Landlord (or Council/ Housing Association), will have an Emergency Response phone number, and be liable for the regular maintenance of their combustion appliances (Gas/LPG/Oil/Solid Fuel).

13. Cleaning Your Alarm

Your Alarm Should be Cleaned at Least Once a Year

You can clean the interior of your alarm by using compressed air or a vacuum cleaner hose and blowing or vacuuming through the openings around the perimeter of the alarm. The outside of the alarm can be wiped with a damp cloth. Use only water to dampen the cloth, use of detergents or cleaners could damage the alarm. If the alarm is in Fault mode, the alarm may be in need of cleaning. After cleaning, press the test button. If the fault does not clear, the alarm needs to be replaced.

• Never use detergent or other solvents to clean the unit.
• Avoid spraying air freshener, hair spray, or other aerosols near the alarm.
• Do not paint the unit. Paint will seal the vents and interfere with the sensor's ability to detect CO.
• Keep away from nappy buckets.
• Never attempt to disassemble the unit to clean inside. Altering the alarm in any way may lead to a risk of electric shock or prevent it from functioning correctly. This action will void your warranty.
• The following substances can affect the CO sensor and may cause false readings and damage to the sensor: Methane, propane, isobutane, iso-propanol, ethyl acetate, hydrogen sulfide, sulfide dioxides, alcohol based products, paints, thinner, solvents, adhesives, hair spray, aftershave, perfume, and some cleaning agents.

NOTE: there could be other compounds occurring within a particular household which could cause similar effects.

- Move the Alarm and place in another location prior to performing any of the following:

Staining or stripping wood floors or furniture

Painting

Wall papering

Using adhesives

Storing the unit in a plastic bag during any of the above projects will protect the sensors from damage. When

household cleaning supplies or similar contaminates are used, the area must be well ventilated.

WARNING: REINSTALL THE ALARM AS SOON AS POSSIBLE TO ENSURE CONTINUOUS PROTECTION.
