Interlogix TX-6310-01-1 - Manual (Page 2)

• Do not install near vents, flues, chimneys, or any
forced/unforced air ventilation openings.
• Do not install on metal surfaces.
• Avoid mounting in areas with a large quantity of metal or
electrical wires.
• Do not install near ceiling fans, doors, windows, or areas
directly exposed to the weather.
• Do not install in dead air spaces, such as peaks of vaulted
ceilings or gabled roofs, where CO may not reach the
sensor in time to provide early warning.
• Do not install near deep-cell large batteries. Large
batteries have emissions that can cause the alarm to
perform at less than optimum performance.
• Do not obstruct the vents located on the alarm. Do not
place the alarm where drapes, furniture, or other objects
block the flow of air to the vents.
