Kidde Combination Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Alarm KN-OOSM-IB - Manual (Page 20)

NEVER IGNORE THE SOUND OF THE ALARM!
Determining what type of alarm has sounded is easy with your
Nighthawk Combination Smoke/CO Alarm. The voice message
warning system will inform you of the type of situation occur-
ring. Refer to the Features section on pages 4-7 for a detailed
description of each alarm pattern.
What To Do If The Alarm Sounds
When the smoke alarm sounds:
Smoke alarms are designed to minimize false alarms. Cigarette
smoke will not normally set off the alarm, unless the smoke is
blown directly into the alarm. Combustion particles from cook-
ing may set off the alarm if located too close to the cooking
area. Large quantities of combustible particles are generated
from spills or when broiling. Using the fan on a range hood
which vents to the outside (non recirculating type) will also help
remove these combustible products from the kitchen.
