If the carbon monoxide detector does not emit light or sound after pressing the
test button, it means that the device has not yet been activated or is not working
properly. Check whether the detector has been correctly activated (see chapter
"Activation and testing"). Then, keep the test button pressed until the detector
emits a light and sound signal. If this does not happen, the appliance does not
function properly and must not be used.
