Selecting the Installation Location

A CO alarm should be assembled
• at least in every bedroom
• in every room with a heating appliance (pay particular
attention to the information below)
• at the room height at which it is normally breathed (ap-
plies to rooms without a heating appliance, otherwise
see below)
• so that the LEDs are visible and the Test/Hush button
can be operated
Although carbon monoxide has a similar density
as the ambient air, it is normally expelled as part
of a hot gas mixture and therefore tends to
ascend until it cools down�
Assemble CO alarms in rooms containing a heating
appliance
• at a height above windows and doors
• at least 300 mm from a wall and 150 mm from the
ceiling
• at a distance of between 1 and 3 m to potential sources
of carbon monoxide
