Kidde 5DCO 10 Year Life Digital Display Carbon Monoxide Alarm

Product Information

Two Duracell batteries are included in the box alongside a wall mounting plate and fixings (for new installations), or the K5CO can be left free standing if preferred. It’s also worth noting that the test button on these devices doesn’t actually test the sensor – it only makes sure that the circuit’s working. Please note: the packaging may state "excludes batteries" but this is regarding the warranty period; the 5CO is supplied with suitable batteries. Many of these features are not well known by their name, so to learn more about specific features of a model, select it and view its detail page.
