Introduction

Product View

FRONT

Product View

BACK

• Loud 85 decibel alarm.

• Permanent independent smoke and carbon monoxide sensors.

•Smoke alarm takes precedence when both smoke and

carbon monoxide are present.

• Powered by 120V AC (60 Hz, 25 mA max) wire-in connector.

Model KN-COSM-IB is also equipped with a 9V battery back-

up.

• Model KN-COSM-IB is equipped with Battery Pull Tab that

allows for easy battery connection. Simply pull tab out, and

battery is connected!

• Interconnectable to other Kidde/Nighthawk brand smoke and

CO alarms (see page 16 for details).

• Alarm/Voice message warning system that alerts you of the

following conditions in the manner described below, thus

eliminating any confusion over which alarm is sounding:

FIRE: The alarm/voice pattern is three long alarm beeps fol-

lowed by the verbal warning message “FIRE! FIRE!” This pat-

tern is repeated until the smoke is eliminated. The red LED

light will flash while in alarm/voice mode.

CARBON MONOXIDE: The alarm/voice pattern is four short

alarm beeps followed by the verbal warning message

“WARNING! CARBON MONOXIDE!". This continues until the

unit is reset or the CO eliminated. While powered by battery

only, after four minutes the alarm/voice pattern will sound

once every minute. The red Light Emitting Diode (LED) light

will flash while in alarm/voice mode.

LOW BATTERY(model KN-COSM-IB only): When the bat-

teries are low and need replacing the red LED light will flash

and the unit will “chirp” one time, followed by the warning

message “LOW BATTERY.” This cycle will occur once every

minute and will continue for at least seven days.

Features

• Voice Message System that alerts user to the following condi-

tions:

– System announces “HUSH MODE ACTIVATED” when

the unit is first put into HUSH Mode.

– System announces “HUSH MODE CANCELLED” when

unit resumes normal operation after Hush Mode has

been cancelled.

– System announces “CARBON MONOXIDE PREVIOUSLY

DETECTED” when the unit has detected CO

concentrations of 100 ppm or higher.

– System announces “PUSH TEST BUTTON” when the unit

is powered up, reminding user to activate the Test

Button.

• One “chirp” every 30 seconds is an indication that the alarm

is malfunctioning. If this occurs call the Consumer Hotline at

1-800-880-6788.

• Test/Reset button performs the following functions:

– Tests the units electronics and verifies proper unit

operation

– Resets the unit during CO alarm

– Activates HUSH Feature

– Activates Peak Level Memory Feature

• HUSH Control Feature that silences the unit during nuisance

alarm situations (see page 15).

• Peak Level Memory Feature which alerts user when the unit

has detected CO concentrations of 100 ppm or greater (see

page 16).

• Alarm Memory Feature that gives visual indication when an

alarm has sensed a hazardous condition.

•Green and red LED lights that indicate normal operation and

alarm status (see page 17 for details).

• Tamper Resist Feature that deters children and others from

removing the alarm (see page 17).

•Model KN-COSM-IB is equipped with a battery reminder flag

that prohibits installation when battery is not present.

Features

• Seven (7) years after initial power up, this unit will “chirp”

every 30 seconds. This is an “operational end of life” feature

which will indicate that it is time to replace the alarm.

Smoke Alarm

The smoke alarm monitors the air for products of combustion

that are produced when something is burning or smoldering.

When smoke particles in the smoke sensor reach a specified

concentration, the alarm/voice message warning system will

sound, and be accompanied by the flashing red LED light. The

smoke alarm takes precedence when both smoke and carbon

monoxide are present.

WARNING: PLEASE READ CAREFULLY AND

THOROUGHLY

NFPA 72 states: Life safety from fire in residential occupancies is

based primarily on early notification to occupants of the need

to escape, followed by the appropriate egress actions by those

occupants. Fire warning systems for dwelling units are capable

of protecting about half of the occupants in potentially fatal

fires. Victims are often intimate with the fire, too old or young,

or physically or mentally impaired such that they cannot escape

even when warned early enough that escape should be possi-

ble. For these people, other strategies such as protection-in-

place or assisted escape or rescue are necessary.

• Smoke alarms are devices that can provide early warning of

possible fires at a reasonable cost; however, alarms have sens-

ing limitations. Ionization sensing alarms may detect invisible

fire particles (associated with fast flaming fires) sooner than

photoelectric alarms. Photoelectric sensing alarms may detect

visible fire particles (associated with slow smoldering fires)

sooner than ionization alarms. Home fires develop in different

ways and are often unpredictable. For maximum protection,

Kidde recommends that both Ionization and Photoelectric

alarms be installed.

•A battery powered alarm must have a battery of the specified

type, in good condition and installed properly.

Features and General Information

• AC powered alarms (without battery backup) will not operate

if the AC power has been cut off, such as by an electrical fire

or an open fuse.

• Smoke alarms must be tested regularly to make sure the bat-

teries and the alarm circuits are in good operating condition.

• Smoke alarms cannot provide an alarm if smoke does not

reach the alarm. Therefore, smoke alarms may not sense fires

starting in chimneys, walls, on roofs, on the other side of a

closed door or on a different floor.

• If the alarm is located outside the bedroom or on a different

floor, it may not wake up a sound sleeper.

• The use of alcohol or drugs may also impair one’s ability to

hear the smoke alarm. For maximum protection, a smoke

alarm should be installed in each sleeping area on every level

of a home.

•Although smoke alarms can help save lives by providing an

early warning of a fire, they are not a substitute for an insur-

ance policy. Home owners and renters should have adequate

insurance to protect their lives and property.

Carbon Monoxide (CO) Alarm

The Carbon Monoxide (CO) alarm monitors the air for the pres-

ence of CO. It will alarm when there are high levels of CO

present, and when there are low levels of CO present over a

longer period of time (see page 21 for alarm times). When a

CO condition matches either of these situations, the alarm/voice

message warning system will sound, and be accompanied by

the flashing red LED light. The carbon monoxide sensor uses an

electrochemical technology.

CAUTION: This alarm will only indicate the presence of

carbon monoxide gas at the sensor. Carbon monoxide

gas may be present in other areas.

Individuals with medical problems may consider using warning

devices which provide audible and visual signals for carbon

monoxide concentrations under 30 ppm.

Features and General Information

Step 1

Installation Guide:

IMPORTANT: THIS ALARM MUST BE MOUNTED ON A

CEILING OR WALL. IT WAS NOT DESIGNED FOR USE AS A

TABLETOP DEVICE! INSTALL ONLY AS DETAILED!

A. Recommended Installation Locations:

Kidde Safety recommends the installation of a Smoke/CO Alarm

in the following locations. For maximum protection we suggest

an alarm be installed on each level of a multilevel home, includ-

ing every bedroom, hallways, finished attics and basements. Put

alarms at both ends of bedroom, hallway or large room if hall-

way or room is more than 30 ft (9.1m) long. If you have only

one alarm, ensure it is placed in the hallway outside of the main

sleeping area, or in the main bedroom. Verify the alarm can be

heard in all sleeping areas.

Locate an alarm in every room where someone sleeps with the

door closed. The closed door may prevent an alarm not located

in that room from waking the sleeper. Smoke, heat and com-

bustion products rise to the ceiling and spread horizontally.

Mounting the alarm on the ceiling in the center of the room

places it closest to all points in the room. Ceiling mounting is

preferred in ordinary residential construction. When mounting

an alarm on the ceil-

ing, locate it at a

minimum of 4”

(10cm) from the side

wall (see figure 1). If

installing the alarm

on the wall, use an

inside wall with the

top edge of the

alarm at a minimum

of 4” (10cm) and a

maximum of 12”

(30.5cm) below the

ceiling (see figure 1).
