Introduction
This user manual provides essential information for the proper installation, operation, and maintenance of your CPVAN 3-in-1 Carbon Monoxide Detector. This device is designed to detect carbon monoxide (CO) gas, and also displays ambient temperature and humidity. It features a 10-year electrochemical sensor and is powered by a 4-year replaceable battery, certified to EU standard EN50291. Please read this manual thoroughly before using the product to ensure safe and effective operation.

Consignes de sécurité
Important: This device is a carbon monoxide (CO) detector, not a smoke detector or a carbon dioxide (CO2) detector. It is designed to detect carbon monoxide gas from sources such as faulty combustion appliances.
- Do not paint the detector. Paint may clog the openings and interfere with the sensor's ability to detect CO.
- Ne pas obstruer les orifices de ventilation du détecteur.
- Testez régulièrement le détecteur comme indiqué dans ce manuel.
- Do not install the detector in areas with high humidity, extreme temperatures, or excessive dust.
- In case of an alarm, evacuate the premises immediately and call emergency services. Do not re-enter until the area has been declared safe.
- The device cannot replace a smoke or gas alarm.

The CPVAN 3-in-1 Carbon Monoxide Detector integrates CO detection with temperature and humidity monitoring.
Figure 2 : The detector's display indicates Carbon Monoxide (CO) levels, relative humidity (%RH), and temperature (°C). When CO concentration is below 25 ppm, only temperature and humidity are displayed.
Composants clés :
- Écran LCD : Shows CO concentration (PPM), relative humidity (%RH), and temperature (°C).
- Bouton Test/Réinitialisation : Used to test the alarm function and reset the device.
- Voyant lumineux : Displays device status (Green for normal, Yellow for fault, Red for alarm).
- Alarme sonore : Émet un son puissant lors d'une alarme de monoxyde de carbone.
- Compartiment à piles : Situé à l'arrière pour les piles AA.
Figure 3 : Visual representation of the indicator light states: Green for normal operation, Yellow for fault, and Red for CO alarm.
Installation
1. Installation de la batterie
The detector requires two 1.5V AA alkaline batteries (included).
- Ouvrez le couvercle du compartiment à piles situé à l'arrière du détecteur.
- Remove the plastic insulating strip from the pre-installed batteries.
- Insérez les deux piles AA en veillant à respecter la polarité (+ et -).
- Close the battery compartment cover securely. The device will automatically power on.

2. Montage et mise en place
Proper placement is crucial for effective CO detection. Install the detector in locations where CO may be produced. The closer it is to a potential CO source, the sooner the alarm will activate.
- Emplacements recommandés : Near combustion appliances (furnaces, water heaters, fireplaces), in living areas, and bedrooms.
- Éviter: Directly above heat sources, in direct sunlight, near windows or vents, in dusty or humid areas, or behind curtains/furniture that could obstruct the sensor.
- Hauteur d'installation : For optimal detection, install the detector at a height between your waist and head level, or as per local regulations.
- Choisissez un emplacement mural approprié.
- Mark the positions for the two screws using the detector's mounting holes as a guide.
- Percez deux trous et insérez les chevilles.
- Insert the screws, leaving a small gap from the wall.
- Align the detector's mounting slots with the screws and slide it down to secure it.
Figure 5 : The detector can be easily mounted on a wall using the provided screws and wall plugs.

Opération
1. Mise sous tension initiale
After battery installation, the device will perform a self-test. The display will show a brief sequence, and the green indicator light will flash. Once initialized, it will display temperature and humidity. The green light will flash approximately every 60 seconds in standby mode.
2. Afficher les informations
L'écran LCD fournit des informations en temps réel :
- Température: Affiché en degrés Celsius (°C).
- Humidité: Shown as relative humidity (%RH).
- Concentration de CO : Displayed in parts per million (PPM). If CO concentration is below 25 ppm, only temperature and humidity are shown. CO concentration is updated every 4 seconds.
Figure 7 : The real-time display shows current humidity and temperature. CO concentration is displayed when it exceeds 25 PPM, with different alarm cycles based on CO levels.
3. Test de l'alarme
Il est recommandé de tester le détecteur chaque semaine afin de garantir son bon fonctionnement.
- Press and hold the Test/Reset button on the front of the detector.
- The alarm will sound loudly, and the red indicator light will flash. The display will show a high CO reading (e.g., "MAX 58 PPM CO").
- Relâchez le bouton pour arrêter le test.
Alternatively, you can test by holding the detector near burning materials like paper or cigarettes for 5-10 seconds. Incomplete combustion typically produces carbon monoxide. If the detector functions correctly, it will display CO concentration and sound an audible alarm.
Figure 8 : When CO is detected above the alarm threshold, the red light flashes and the alarm sounds.
4. Alarm Conditions and Behavior
The detector is certified to EN-50291 standards. Alarm thresholds are as follows:
| Concentration de CO (PPM) | Heure de l'alarme |
|---|---|
| 50 XNUMX ppm | 60-90 minutes |
| 100 XNUMX ppm | 10-40 minutes |
| 300 XNUMX ppm | 0-3 minutes |
When an alarm occurs, the red indicator light will flash rapidly, and the buzzer will emit a loud, continuous alarm sound. The display will show the detected CO concentration.
What to do if the alarm sounds:
- Rendez-vous immédiatement à l'extérieur pour prendre l'air ou ouvrez toutes les portes et fenêtres pour aérer la pièce.
- Effectuez un comptage pour vérifier que toutes les personnes sont présentes.
- Ne pénétrez pas de nouveau dans les locaux tant que l'alarme n'a pas cessé et que la zone n'a pas été entièrement aérée.
- Appelez les services d'urgence ou un technicien qualifié pour enquêter sur la source du CO.
Entretien
1. Remplacement de la batterie
The detector is designed with a 4-year replaceable battery life. When the batteries are low, the device will indicate this with a specific warning (e.g., a chirp or a low battery icon on the display). Replace both AA alkaline batteries promptly when this occurs. Refer to the "Battery Installation" section for replacement steps.
2. Nettoyage
Clean the detector regularly to prevent dust buildup from affecting its performance.
- Utilisez un chiffon doux et sec.amp chiffon pour essuyer l'extérieur du détecteur.
- Do not use cleaning sprays, solvents, or abrasive cleaners.
- Ne peignez pas le détecteur.
3. Tests réguliers
Test the detector weekly using the Test/Reset button to ensure the alarm and sensor are functioning correctly.
Dépannage
| Problème | Cause possible | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Detector not powering on after battery installation. | Batteries incorrectly inserted or dead. Plastic insulating strip not removed. | Ensure batteries are inserted with correct polarity. Remove the plastic insulating strip. Try new batteries. |
| L'alarme se déclenche fréquemment sans source de CO apparente. | False alarm due to strong fumes (e.g., cleaning products, paint). Detector placed too close to a combustion source. | Ventilate the area. Relocate the detector if it's too close to a potential source or in an area with frequent fumes. |
| Detector chirps or shows low battery indicator. | Batterie faible. | Replace both AA alkaline batteries immediately. |
| Green light not flashing every 60 seconds. | Device fault or low battery. | Check battery level. Perform a test. If issue persists, contact customer support. |
| Display shows only temperature and humidity, not CO. | CO concentration is below 25 ppm, which is normal. | This is normal operation. The CO reading will appear if the concentration exceeds 25 ppm. |
