Thank you for the purchase of your new Kidde carbon

monoxide alarm. If you have any questions about the

operation or setup of your CO alarm, feel free to call us

on 0800 917 0722

Your new Kidde carbon monoxide (CO) alarm is a sophisticated

instrument that has been carefully designed and tested to assure

accurate detection of CO build up in a residential environment. Your

alarm is for use specifically in the home.

Carbon monoxide cannot be seen, smelled or tasted and can be fatal.

The build up of CO in the blood is called the carboxyhaemoglobin

level and interferes with the body’s ability to supply itself with

oxygen. Depending on the concentration, carbon monoxide can kill

in minutes.

The most common sources of carbon monoxide are malfunctioning

gas appliances used for heating and cooking, vehicles running in an

attached garage, blocked chimneys or flues, portable fuel burning

heaters, fireplaces, fuel powered tools and operating a grill in an

enclosed space. Any fuel that burns can produce carbon monoxide.

Indications of carbon monoxide poisoning include symptoms similar

to the flu, but with no fever. Other symptoms include dizziness,

fatigue, weakness, headache, nausea, vomiting, sleepiness and

confusion. Everyone is susceptible to the danger of CO, but experts

agree that unborn babies, small children, pregnant women, old age

pensioners and people with heart or respiratory problems are at the

highest risk for serious injury or death or anyone that spends large

amounts of time at home. Each year a qualified Corgi (gas) or Hetas

(solid fuel) engineer should inspect and clean your heating system,

vents, chimney, and flues.

Your new Kidde CO alarm has a five year warranty. Please take a few

minutes to thoroughly read the user’s guide and familiarise yourself

and your family with its operation. Your Kidde CO alarm was

designed to detect carbon monoxide gas from ANY source of

combustion. IT IS NOT DESIGNED TO DETECT SMOKE, FIRE OR

ANY OTHER GASES. If you have any questions please call us on

01753 685148.

Carbon Monoxide Overview

Remove the three enclosed AA batteries and install them into the

battery well. Carefully place the red battery warning flags into

the battery well. Observe the battery polarity markings at the

bottom of the battery well.

When the batteries are first installed, the unit will beep once and

the red alarm light will flash. After approximately 20-30 seconds

the green light will flash indicating that the unit is operational.

Replace battery cover.

Your Kidde CO alarm is now operational.

Quick Set Up

IMPORTANT

A small screwdriver or similar tool may be required

when opening the battery compartment cover. This should

be levered from the lip at the bottom of the cover.

The cover is designed this way to discourage the

removal of batteries, or tampering, by young children.

Installation Location

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

bedrooms, not in the cellar or boiler room.

Installation Instructions

Recommended Location

Upper Levels of Home

Cellar Levels of Home

•If you have only one alarm, place it near sleeping areas.

•Position near fuel burning appliances, near fireplaces,

boilers or hot water heater.

Mounting

Your CO alarm is designed for

mounting onto the inside wall.

You should fix the back plate

provided to the wall first, using

the screws and rawl plugs.

When the plate is attached

locate the the slots on the

back of the alarm with the keys on the

back plate, sliding downwards and into position until the

tab clips onto the top of the alarm (see figure 1).

To remove, press the tab against the wall and lift the alarm out of the

mounting plate.

Install your CO alarm 1.5 metres from the floor.

NOTE: Your 9CO5 CO alarm is not designed for portability.

Where To Install Your Kidde CO Alarm

The following suggestions are intended to help you with the

placement and installation of your Kidde CO alarm.

• Place out of the reach of children. Under no circumstance

should children be allowed to handle the CO alarm.

• Install in a bedroom or hallway located close to the sleeping

area. Take special care to verify the alarm can be heard in

sleeping areas.

• It is recommended that a CO alarm be installed on each

level of a multilevel home.

• Locate at least 2 metres away from all fuel burning

appliances.

• Placing at eye level allows for optimum monitoring of the

red and green indicator lights, or, as a guide, 1.5 metres

from the floor.

Installation Instructions

Figure 1

• Ensure that all vents of the unit are unobstructed.

• Do not install in dead air spaces such as peaks of vaulted

ceilings, or gabled roofs.

• Do not install in turbulent air from ceiling fans.

Do not place near fresh air vents or close to doors and

windows that open to the outside.

• Keep the CO alarm away from excessively dusty, dirty, or

greasy areas such as kitchens, garages and boiler or utility

rooms. Dust, grease and household chemicals can affect

the sensor.

• Keep out of damp and humid areas such as the bathroom.

Avoid spraying aerosols near the CO alarm.

• Do not install in areas where the temperature is below

40˚F (4.4˚C) or hotter than 100˚F (37.8˚C).

• Do not place behind curtains or furniture. CO must be able

to reach the sensor for the unit to accurately detect carbon

monoxide. NEVER place the CO alarm flat on a table top

or similar surface.

• Be aware that certain conditions can result in transient

CO situations, such as: 1) Excessive spillage or reverse

venting of fuel burning appliances caused by outdoor

ambient conditions, such as: i) Wind direction and/or

velocity, including high gusts of wind. Heavy air in the

vent pipes (cold/humid air with extended periods between

cycles). ii) negative pressure differential resulting from the

use of exhaust fans. iii) Simultaneous operation of several

fuel burning appliances competing for limited internal air.

iv) Vent pipe connections vibrating loose from clothes

dryers, boilers or water heaters. v) Obstructions in or

unconventional vent pipe designs which can amplify the

above situations. 2) Extended operation of unvented fuel

burning devices (cooker, oven, fireplace, etc.).

3) Temperature inversions which can trap exhaust near the

ground. 4) Car idling in open or closed garage, or near home.

Installation Instructions (cont.)

Your new Kidde battery powered CO alarm utilises sophisticated

electronic components to protect you and your family from the

dangers of CO. Unique features include red and green diagnostic

lights, battery status, and sensor health. Familiarise yourself with

these features:

Red Alarm Indicator Light

If a dangerous level of carbon monoxide is detected by your

Kidde alarm, the red alarm LED will light continuously and a

loud (85decibel) alarm will sound. See figure 2.

See page 13-14 for an

understanding of which CO

levels are dangerous.

Green Operate Indicator Light

The green light flashing every 30 seconds indicates the unit is

functioning properly (see figure 3).

The green light will flash before a CO reading is taken and

when any button is pressed.

If the unit chirps once every 30 seconds, observe the unit for

the following:

A chirp every 30 seconds, with a green LED flash followed by

a red LED flash, indicates the batteries are low. Follow the

battery installation/replacement instructions on page 9 and 10.

A chirp every 30 seconds, with a red flash and no green LED

flash indicates a unit error. If the unit does not respond, call

Kidde on 0800 917 0722.

Features and Operation

Figure 2

Test/Reset Button

The test/reset button is used to

test the unit’s electronics and to

reset the unit during alarm

(see figure 3).

• Test the unit - To test, press and release the test/reset

button, you should hear one short beep - followed by

5 seconds of silence – followed by a continuous alarm

with a corresponding red LED flash. Familiarise yourself

and family members with the alarm pattern.

Test the unit weekly! If at any time your unit does

not perform as described replace it immediately.

Note: After the test/reset button is pressed, the alarm

sounds and the red alarm light flashes. This does not

indicate that carbon monoxide is present.

Due to the loudness of the alarm we suggest you place your

fingers over the sounder opening when testing your Kidde

CO Alarm.

•Reset the unit - If the alarm is sounding, pressing

the test/reset button will terminate the alarm. If

the CO condition that caused the alert in the first

place continues, the alarm will reactivate.

Reactivation times depend on the amount of CO

that caused the CO alarm to initially alarm and the

amount of CO present after resetting the alarm

(see page 11, Alarm Instructions/Emergency

Response).

WARNING: Tampering with your 9CO5 CO alarm,

may cause malfunction. Please follow manufacturers

instructions at all times.

Features and Operation (cont.)

Figure 3

Since batteries are not installed in the unit at the factory, you will

need to install them. Your Kidde unit will continue to remind

you to change the batteries for up to seven days after low

batteries are detected.

WARNING: Your Kidde CO alarm will not be operational

and will not monitor for CO levels without the

installation of three charged AA batteries.

Your Kidde CO alarm monitors for battery failure such as bad

or corroded connections, sudden battery failure and other

causes. If the alarm senses any form of battery failure,

the unit will start chirping an audible alarm every 30

seconds, the green and red alarm light will flash.

The battery error warning will continue until new batteries are

placed in the unit, or until the remaining batteries become

completely exhausted.

Three AA batteries have been included with your purchase.

When replacing the batteries, we recommend use of the

following for a minimum of one year normal operation:

• Duracell MN1500 • Camelion Mignon LR6-AM3-1.5

• Energizer E91 • Rayovac 815

These batteries can be purchased at your local retailer.

NOTE:

Ensure that you observe the polarities required during

installation. Incorrect battery insertion will make your

CO alarm inoperable.
