Question
D-Vine 64
After I bought the CO Sensors of Fibaro I saw the documentation and the requirements of placement are incomplete.
The only picture is the one of 1.5m from the floor that's it. But this is not the only requirement of placing.
Please read the following instructions (dutch) of the fire department netherlands.

With a sloping ceiling
- At a horizontal distance between 1 and 3 meters from the CO source.
- Place the detector on the high side of the sloping ceiling.
