Answer
Taking out the battery will do that ,IF it's battery powered.
IF it's line voltage powered, you may have to unplug it,
BUT
it may have a battery back-up.
You will have to unplug the battery as well to reset it.

I was cooking in the kitchen today and I notice the number got up to 9 but the alarm did not go off. I just want to know about these numbers, I have no idea how far the numbers go. I thank you for your help.


Answer
If you can't find the manual, try looking up your model on the internet. The numbers *may* indicate parts per million of CO detected. It takes 1000ppm to cause unconsciousness in an hour, so 9ppm isn't good, but it is considered "normal" background CO.
