Smoke Alarm
The smoke alarm will only work properly if it is operational and
maintained. They have a limited life and will wear out over time.
Immediately replace the detector if it is not working properly, if it
displays any type of problem, or within five years of use.
Be sure
to read, understand and follow the information provided by the
smoke alarm manufacturer, including information on the lim-
ited life of smoke alarms.
Be aware the smoke alarm is not fool proof and cannot detect fires
if smoke does not reach it. Anything preventing smoke from reaching the alarm may delay
or prevent an alarm.
Though the alarm horn in this detector meets or exceeds current UL standards, it may not
be heard for reasons that include (but not limited to): a closed or partially closed door, other
noise from electronics, appliances or traffic.
The smoke alarm is operational once the battery is correctly installed.
It will not func-
tion if the battery is missing, disconnected, dead, the wrong type or not installed correctly.
It requires one standard 9V battery.
Refer to the user’s guide, for correct battery and
installation information,
The LED light will indicate the battery is functioning properly.
When the production of
combustion is sensed, the smoke detector sounds a loud alarm that continues until the air is
cleared. The LED light will also give a visual indication of a sounding alarm.
Do not check the pressure, test or practice using the fire extinguisher by
squeezing the trigger, even briefly. The fire extinguisher is not rechargeable
or refillable. Once used, it will gradually lose pressure and will not be fully
charged for use in an emergency.
Do not turn the electrical power back on or plug in any appliances after the use
of a fire extinguisher. Please refer to the fire extinguisher’s user manual for
further instructions on maintenance and clean up.
This smoke alarm will not alert hearing impaired residents. Special alarms
with flashing strobe lights are recommended for the hearing impaired
Only use the replacement battery recommended by the smoke detector man-
ufacturer. The smoke detector alarm may not operate properly with other
batteries. Never use a rechargeable battery as it may not provide a constant
charge. Never disconnect the battery to silence the alarm.
Test the smoke alarm operation after the vehicle has been in storage, before
each trip and at least once per week during use. Do not disconnect the battery
or the alarm.
