1. When ready to use,
remove the tan sensor button from the foil package and snap it firmly into the hole on the
front of the plastic badge.
2. Write the date you started testing on the lower right hand corner on the front of the
plastic badge.
3. Peel the protective coating off of the adhesive on the back of the plastic badge and
mount to wall or door in area of concern.
If carbon monoxide is present, the sensor button will turn grey to black
within fifteen (15) minutes. The sensor button will return to its original color and be
ready for reuse when exposed to fresh air (unless the sensor has been overexposed). Even a
slight darkening of the sensor button indicated a dangerous amount of carbon monoxide.
NOTE: Replace sensor button every three (3) months.
Carbon monoxide is an
odorless, tasteless, and colorless gas which is caused by incomplete combustion of
gasoline, kerosene, natural gas, butane, propane, fuel oil, wood, coal, or any other type
of fuel. Carbon monoxide gas can be emitted by fire places, gas heaters, gas stoves, gas
or oil furnaces, wood coal or gas dryers, and/or gas barbecues. It is estimated that
carbon monoxide causes as many as 1,000 deaths per year in the United States.
