SAFETY EQUIPMENT
SMOKE DETECTOR/CARBON MONOXIDE ALARM
Each RV is equipped with a combined carbon monoxide alarm/smoke detector. This
alarm sounds if an excess carbon monoxide concentration (CO) is measured in the
air.
CO is a colourless and odourless gas, which can escape if, for example, there is a
malfunction in the burner system. Sources of carbon monoxide include open flames
(stove, oven, furnaces). Therefore, always make sure that the RV is well-ventilated
while cooking appliances are in use, i.e., please open a skylight and/or window.
If the alarm device repeatedly emits individual beeps in certain intervals without triggering an alarm, this
indicates that the batteries have reached the end of their life and need to be replaced. Please replace them to
ensure that the smoke detector continues to function. Please keep all receipts for such expenses and present
them upon return of the RV for reimbursement.
FIRE EXTINGUISHER
A
fire extinguisher is part of the safety equipment in each of our RV’s. Please refer to the "Vehicle
Specifications" chapter for its location.
PROPANE DETECTOR/ALARM
Each RV is equipped with a propane detector, which is always
located near the floor. The alarm goes off whenever an increased
propane emission (e.g., from the stove or oven) is detected.
Please do not place any objects near the propane detector to
avoid false alarms.
Please note that the propane alarm is connected to the camper
batteries, and if the level of the batteries is too low, the alarm
emits a beep every 30 seconds. In that case, the coach battery must be recharged to ensure continued safety in
the vehicle.
In the event of an alarm:
In the event of an alarm, please turn off the propane supply on the propane bottles, open all windows and
doors, and wait outside of the RV until the alarm stops. Once the alarm has stopped, please check if the control
knobs on the stove and oven are off and no propane escapes unnoticed.
