Description

The Battery Powered Smoke & Carbon Monoxide Detector (2-AA batteries included), model 900-CUDR, is equipped with self-testing components that are always checking to make sure the alarm is on and working.* This smoke and carbon monoxide detector combo helps protect you and your family from 2 dangerous threats – fire and carbon monoxide (CO) – in one device. Additionally, the included mounting bracket makes installation quick and easy. Battery-powered smoke detectors, like this model, provide reliable detection even during power outages, for extra peace of mind.

This is a photoelectric smoke alarm, meaning it may better detect the larger, visible fire particles that are associated with slow smoldering fires. Industry experts recommend using both photoelectric smoke detectors, like this one, and ionization smoke detectors which may better detect smaller, less-visible fire particles, like those that are associated with fast-flaming fires. Install both types throughout your house for comprehensive smoke & fire detection.

Carbon Monoxide: The LED will flash and four short alarm beeps will sound. This continues until the smoke & carbon monoxide alarm is reset or the CO is eliminated. Fire: The red LED will flash and be accompanied by three long alarm beeps. The alarm will repeat this pattern until the unit is reset or smoke is eliminated. Alarm Memory: The green LED will blink once every 16 seconds to alert the user when the smoke detector-carbon monoxide detector combo has sounded in the recent past (like if it goes off when you’re not at home). If the alarm has detected abnormal levels of smoke since its last test, it will produce three rapid beeps. Low Battery: One chirp and the LED will flash red. This pattern will continue every minute for the first hour. After the first hour the red LED will flash once every minute accompanied by the chirp sound.

UL Certified, with a 10-year limited warranty. This smoke & CO alarm meets the requirements of UL 2034, UL217, NFPA72, (chapter 11 2002 edition), NFPA101 (One- and two-family dwellings) Federal Housing Authority (FHA), Housing and Urban Development (HUD).

Key Features

• Twice the Detection - Alerts you to both smoke & CO using a single alarm.
• Self-Testing - Smoke & CO alarm is equipped with components that are always checking to ensure the device is operating as expected.*
• Quick-Install Mounting Bracket - Included in the box for simple, easy installation in 4 orientations.
• Photoelectric smoke sensor - May detect visible fire particles associated with slow smoldering fires sooner than an ionization sensor.
• Electrochemical CO sensor - Provides accurate and continual CO protection during the product’s life, remains stable during temperature and humidity changes and resists reactions to household gases that may cause false readings or reduce sensitivity.
• One-Touch Button - Unique cat-eye button on the face of the detector performs the following functions:

          - Activates the Hush feature to temporarily silence nuisance alarms.

          - Tests the unit’s electronics and verifies proper operation.

          - Resets the carbon monoxide smoke detector combo during a CO alarm (Unit will re-enter alarm within 6 minutes of reset if 70ppm or more of CO is present).

          - Silences a low battery chirp for up to 24 hours at a time for a maximum of 7 days.

          - Silences the end of life chirp on this carbon monoxide detector and smoke alarm for up to 24 hours at a time for a maximum of seven days.

•  *Self-testing is not a substitute for a manual push test of the alarm. Perform a button test once per week to verify proper alarm operation
