Alarm not sounding when CO is present

Ensure the unit is correctly installed and has power. Press the test button to check functionality. If the alarm is still not working, replace the unit.

False alarms

Make sure the alarm is not near any fumes (e.g., from cooking or cleaning products). If the false alarms persist, it may be due to a faulty sensor, in this case, replace the unit.
