The Propane Gas Detector is powered at all times when the coach battery disconnect switch is
in the ON position. When power is supplied to the detector the green indicator light will
illuminate. After 60 seconds, the detector will begin monitoring the air in the motorhome for
combustible vapors. The Propane you use to cook, refrigerate, and heat is combustible.
Should a leak occur, the detector will produce a pulsating alert sound when the gas reaches the
detector. This alert will continue to sound until the gas has dissipated or until the reset button is
pressed. When the alert sounds, open all doors and major windows to air out the motorhome
and turn the gas off at the tank. Do not reenter the motorhome until the alert stops sounding.
If the alert sounds a second time after the gas is turned back on, leave the gas off and have a
qualified Propane Dealer or RV Service Center make the necessary repairs. The reset
button only stops the alert from sounding for 60 seconds. This device is intended for detection
of Propane gas ONLY.
Never use water, cleaners or solvents to clean the detector.
The following maintenance steps should be taken to ensure proper function of the detector.
• Test the detector at least once per week.
• Clean the detector at least once a month; gently vacuum the outside of the detector
using the vacuums soft brush attachment.
• If detector becomes contaminated by excessive dirt, dust and/or grime, and cannot
be cleaned to avoid unwanted alarms, replace the unit immediately.
REFERENCE: For proper battery maintenance and replacement procedures, refer to the
manufacturer’s owner’s manual.
