The carbon monoxide detector is going off in my room?

The carbon monoxide detector in my room was just going off. The little screen had a dot/star then a 97. Right away I told my mom and she went and looked at it. She turned it off so it would stop beeping and she said that the windows are open and that the furnace isn't on so I'll be fine. I'm still a little scared. What do the numbers mean and what do you think I should do?

Answer
Maybe your carbon monoxide detector's wiring are messed up, or it's reacting to low battery energy. I sadly don't know what the dot/star and 97 means. If it really scares you, tell your mother :)

My carbon monoxide detector is going off?

My carbon monoxide detector keeps going off. I had the house tested for carbon monoxide and there wasn't any. I moved the detector outside and it is still beeping. Could it be defective?

Answer
How old is it. I've never had much luck with them lasting very long.
