First Alert Explosive Gas and Carbon Monoxide Alarm explanation and un-boxing video

[LuxuryHomesByLisa]

My alarm kept beeping, just like a smoke alarm does when the battery needs replacing.

I wasn't sure if it was an alarm or just needing to replace the battery. It would be great if

you would do a video, showing us what to look for, so we can get out of the house when needed. Is it a constant alarm?

@LuxuryHomesByLisa When the battery is low/missing the LED will be Green and it will chirp about every minute, just like smoke alarms. When the alarm is sounding because of Gas, you will hear 1 beep every second. When the alarm is sounding because of Carbon Monoxide, you will hear a repeating 4 beeps after a pause.

All this information can be found in the user manual under the section: Understanding the Light, Horn and Display Patterns. The manual can also be found on our website.

When this unit is plugged in, Should the green light be on steady? Kinda confusing cause when you open the cover to the battery door, underneath the light it say "move to fresh air" - I have researched this and read that if the green light is flashing, it doesn't mean to move the unit to fresh air but to move yourself to fresh air, which is common sense to me. But anyway, My question is: Should this green light be on??? when everything is fine?

@maryleamiller Yes the green light will stay on. It is indicating that the alarm is operating correctly. The green light will flash for a couple seconds then stay green. You move to fresh air when the alarm sounds.

It may have been helpful that the manual said when testing that the sensor will show all levels of carbon monoxide that it can test while it tests. A less informed person why they see the test say gas evacuate they would. Of coarse I knew when it said 400 ppm at the end of the test I knew it was just testing levels it could read as I would have been dead anyway and the peak button helped. Sorry the wording on the instructions are a bit miss leading.
