Yeah, there's a button to test the alarm, which I have pressed, and sure enough it emits a godawful screech, but that doesn't really tell me whether the thing is going to detect CO. Not that I'm especially worried about it, but for all I know, it could just be an expensive nightlight with a noisemaking button.
The guy with the car was on the right track. Only bad part is having to rush into the toxic fume cloud in the garage to turn off the shrieking alarm.
