the red LED flashes. The alarm horn will sound
4 beeps-pause,
4 beeps-pause . The alarm sequence should last 5-6 seconds.
If the alarm does not test properly:
1. CHECK that the battery is installed correctly.

3. CHECK that the CO Alarm is clean and dust-free.
4. If it still does not alarm, REPLACE the CO Alarm immediately .
Battery
REPLACE the battery in your CO alarm when it “chirps” about
once per minute (
the low battery warning
). NEVER disconnect
the battery to silence the CO alarm.
•
When the
low battery warning
sounds, the battery
MUST be replaced to continue your protection.
Maintenance
To keep the CO Alarm in good working order:
•
DO NOT clean with water, solvents, cleaning agents,
bleach, or polish as these may damage the alarm.
• VACUUM the CO Alarm cover once a month, then RE-TEST.
• DO NOT paint over the unit. Paint may clog the openings to
the sensing chambers and prevent it from operating properly.
Propane Gas (LP) Alarm
A propane leak detection device is installed for your safety,
because your new RV contains a
propane gas system
and
propane appliances . Propane gas is heavier than air. During
a leak, propane flows toward and collects in low areas. For this
reason, the propane alarm is located near the floor of the RV.
When the LED on the front glows green, the alarm is active.
•
Individuals with hearing loss or certain medical
problems should consider using warning devices
that provide both audible and visual signals
The sensor may also detect other combustible fumes or vapors
including; acetone, alcohol, butane and gasoline. These
chemicals can be found in common items such as deodorant,
cologne, perfume, wine, liquor, adhesive, lacquer, kerosene,
most cleaning agents and the propellants of aerosol cans.
TEST Carbon Monoxide
Alarm operation: after the
RV has been in storage,
before each trip, and
once a week while in use.
• If the CO Alarm ever fails
to test correctly, have it
replaced immediately!
• If the CO Alarm is NOT
working properly, it
cannot alert you to a
problem.
• Failure to test units used
in RV’s as described may
remove your protection.
The Test/Silence button
is the only proper way to
test the CO Alarm.

with vehicle exhaust !
Exhaust may cause
