Product Introduction
The SMCCO02-Z Is a wireless carbon monoxide (CO) alarm that monitors the levels of CO gas and provides early warning when potentially
dangerous levels exist. The SMCCO02-Z uses patented and field-proven electrochemical sensor technology. If a dangerous concentration of CO
is detected by patented and field-proven electrochemical sensor:
¾ An LED indicator on the SMCCO02-Z goes ON.
¾ An internal siren sounds in temporal 4 pattern.
¾ The SMCCO02-Z sends alarm signal to the control panel within 15 seconds of detecting dangerous concentration of CO gas. The control
panel activates its internal siren and reports the alarm condition to the central monitoring station if the system is monitored.
The SMCCO02-Z also detects low battery, wall tamper, and sensor end-of-life. These trouble codes are sent to the control panel, which reports
the condition to the central monitoring station. The alarm automatically resets when CO is no longer detected. The SMCCO02-Z does not
detect fire, smoke, or any other gas.
TheSMCCO02-Z is listed and complies with the ANSI/UL 2034 standard for CO alarms. It is intended for residential indoor dwelling unit
applications and other areas approved by the authority having jurisdiction (AHJ). It is not intended for use in industrial applications.
To help identify the date to replace the alarm, an area has been reserved on the side of the alarm. Write the “replace by” date (seven years
from power up) with a permanent marker in the area provided.
WARNING: After seven years from initial power up, this alarm beeps two times every 30 seconds to indicate it is time to replace the alarm.
Replace the alarm immediately because it will not detect CO in this condition.
About This Guide
This User Guide describes how to install your SMCCO02-Z. Notice that we refer to this document as a User Guide. This is because our intention
is for you use this guide just as you will be using your SMCCO02-Z. Keep this guide in a handy location and refer to it when you have questions
about your SMCCO02-Z , its functions and features, or if you have questions about carbon monoxide. Reading this guide is the only way to learn
how to use your SMCCO02-Z wisely and to know how to react in the event of an alarm.

¾ In dead-air spaces, such as peaks of
vaulted ceilings or gabled roofs,
where CO might not reach the
sensor in time to provide early
warning.
¾ Near deep-cell large batteries.
Large batteries have emissions that
can cause the alarm to perform at
less than optimum performance.
¾ Where drapes, furniture, or other
objects block the flow of air to the
vents.
¾ Near ceiling fans, doors, windows,
or areas directly exposed to the
weather.
¾ In areas with a large quantity of
metal or electrical wires.
¾ In areas that obstruct the vents
located on the alarm.
Selecting an improper location can affect
the sensitive electronic components in
your SMCCO02-Z. To avoid damaging the
unit, to provide optimum performance,
and to prevent unnecessary nuisance
alarms, do not install the SMCCO02-Z:
¾ In kitchens, garages, or furnace
rooms that can expose the sensor to
substances that can damage or
contaminate it.
¾ Near vents, flues, chimneys, or any
forced/unforced air ventilation
openings.
¾ Within 5 feet of heating or cooking
appliances. We recommend 15 feet
to prevent nuisance alarms.
¾ In areas where the temperature is
colder than 40°F (4.4°C) or hotter
than 100°F (37.8°C) such as crawl
spaces, attics, porches, and
garages.
¾ On metal surfaces.
When choosing installation locations, be
sure you can hear the alarm from all
sleeping areas. If you install only one
alarm in your home, install it near bedrooms, not in the basement or furnace
room. Place the alarm out of reach of
children. Under no circumstances should
children be allowed to handle the alarm.
Mount the SMCCO02-Z alarms in or near
bedrooms and living areas. We recommend you install an alarm on each level
of your home.

Mounting the Alarm
The SMCCO02-ZCO alarm can be wall
mounted or ceiling mounted.
Use the following instructions to mount
the SMCCO02-Z. Before you mount the
unit permanently, verify RF performance
(see “Running the RF Communication
Test” on page 7).
C. After the mounting plate is secured,
slide the alarm over the mounting
plate (see Figure 5 on page 4).
D. Pull out the battery pull tab to
power-up the SMCCO02-Z.
A. Slide the alarm body off the
mounting plate. Place the mounting
plate in the desired location and
mark the location of the 2 mounting
holes. Orient the mounting plate
vertically or horizontally (see Figure
2 and Figure 3).
E. Two labels are provided that have
important information on what to do
in case of an alarm. Record the
phone number of your emergency
service provider in the space
provided. Then place one label next
to the alarm after it is mounted,
and the other label near a fresh-air
source, such as a door or window.
