Check your smoke/CO detector batteries when you set your clocks back

 

This weekend ends daylight saving time, the day we switch back the clocks -- and check the batteries in our smoke alarms and CO (carbon monoxide) detectors.

The change will happen on Sunday, Nov. 4 at 2 a.m., while most of us are asleep. You'll need to set your clocks back one hour before going to bed on Saturday.

Remember: Working smoke alarms save lives.
