Where to Install Your CO Alarm
Your Carrier CO alarm should be mounted in or near bedrooms and liv-
ing areas. It is recommended that you install a Carrier CO alarm on each
level of a multi-level home. You may use the number and location of
smoke alarms installed in your home according to current building code
requirements as a guide to the location of your Carrier CO alarm(s).
WHEN CHOOSING YOUR INSTALLATION LOCATIONS, MAKE SURE YOU CAN
HEAR THE ALARM FROM ALL SLEEPING AREAS. IF YOU INSTALL ONLY ONE
CARBON MONOXIDE ALARM IN YOUR HOME, INSTALL THE ALARM NEAR BED-
ROOMS, NOT IN THE BASEMENT OR FURNACE ROOM.
Two labels have been provided with important information on what to do
in case of an alarm. Add the phone number of your emergency service
provider in the space provided. Place one label next to the alarm after it
is mounted, and one label near a fresh air source such as a door or win-
dow.
CAUTION: This alarm will only indicate the presence of carbon monox-
ide at the sensor. Carbon monoxide may be present in other areas.
IMPORTANT: Improper location can affect the sensitive electronic com-
ponents in this alarm. Please see the next section describing where NOT
to install this alarm.
