  • It's important you understand what the alarm sounds and LED combinations mean on your carbon monoxide alarm. All this information is in your user manual, but if you're anything like us, tracking down the user manual you put somewhere safe can be impossible. This video guide will keep you informed of what everything means, and what to do when they happen. If you don't have a carbon monoxide alarm please get one today and tell you friends and family too. Thank you for watching.

    This might be a daft question but mine has come to the end of its life and will need replaced. However, is there an off switch or anyway to stop it chirping every minute? Otherwise it will be in the bin chirping away...

      You can push and hold in the button for a few seconds, but this will only silence it for 24hrs

      Funny how we all seem to have this program at the same time. Mine doesn't shut up. It's end of life... Tried everything. Was thinking of just destroying it

      If you slide the back cover off sideways, by inserting a small screwdriver in the hole on the side, it stops beeping 👍

    The only way I could stop mine beeping and causing my dog stress was to take it to the recycling centre. Put it in my garden overnight and my dog could still hear it. Surely you can turn them off?

      See user Manual. The new version has different Number of chirps wrt the One in the video. It should be wireless module fault. Remove the module.

    Hey! I have a problem with the xc70 alarm! The green light is flashing normally as no problem was detected, but it is making the beep sound once per minute! Anyone had anything to do with this situation? Thank you

    • @SimplyJoshTrainspotter
      @SimplyJoshTrainspotter 2 года назад

      What you do is check if there is a fault. If theres not then you must get it replaced or look inside of it. (sorry for the late reply)

    What are the emergency procedures?

    • @unitedagainstco288
      @unitedagainstco288  3 года назад +3

      Emergency procedures mean opening windows and doors to ventilate the property. Evacuate the property immediately - stay calm and avoid raising your heart rate. Call the National Gas Emergency Service on 0800 111 999 to report the incident, or the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) Gas Safety Advice Line on 0800 300 363. I hope this helps.
