3. Операција

3.1 LCD Display Indications

The digital LCD screen provides real-time information about the detector's status:

  • Режим на подготвеност: Displays the current CO level in parts per million (ppm). If no CO is detected, it will show '0 ppm'.
  • Аларм за CO: When dangerous CO levels are detected, the screen will display the CO concentration in ppm, accompanied by an audible alarm and a flashing red light.
  • "AL" (Alarm in Absence): If a CO alarm triggers while you are away, the device will enter "Alarm in Absence" mode. The screen will display "AL", and the unit will beep every 40 seconds with a red flashing light until deactivated.
  • Статус на батеријата: An icon indicates the battery level. A flashing orange "!" and continuous beep signify low batteries.
  • "EOL" (End of Life): This indicator signals that the device has reached the end of its 10-year operational life and needs replacement.

3.2 Активирање на аларм

In the event of CO detection, the FA6812 will:

  • Emit four loud beeps (85 dB(A) at 3m minimum).
  • Flash a red LED light.
  • Display the CO concentration in ppm on the LCD screen.

Ако се огласи алармот:

  1. Immediately move to fresh air outdoors or open all doors and windows.
  2. Направете пребројување на лицата за да проверите дали се евидентирани сите лица.
  3. Не влегувајте повторно во просториите додека алармот не престане и просторијата не е темелно проветрена.
  4. Seek medical attention for anyone experiencing symptoms of CO poisoning (headache, nausea, dizziness).
  5. Contact the appropriate emergency services or a qualified technician to investigate the source of the CO.

3.3 Sleep Easy™ Function

The Sleep Easy™ function allows you to temporarily silence the low battery warning for 8 hours. To activate:

  • Press and hold the test button when the low battery warning sounds.

During this period, the orange indicator light will continue to flash, and the device remains fully functional for CO detection. This feature is designed for convenience, but batteries should be replaced as soon as possible.
