If you set your personalization differently in your Home Wizard app, then you may get reminders for different tasks and timings in your recommended home care program for your CO Detectors.
How To
Even if the carbon monoxide detector is plugged into an electrical supply, it still likely has a back-up battery that should be replaced.
The detector can be cleaned using a vacuum cleaner to remove cobwebs, and to the extent possible, to also remove dust from the inside of the unit.
