batteries. Never use a rechargeable battery as it may not provide a constant
charge. Never disconnect the battery to silence the alarm.

Your recreation vehicle is equipped with a combination carbon monoxide (CO)/propane
alarm that is listed for use in recreation vehicles. The combination carbon monoxide/
propane alarm will only work if it is operational and maintained.
Maintenance
Gently vacuum off any dust on the cover of the smoke alarm with your vacuum’s soft brush
attachment. Test the smoke alarm once you have vacuumed. Never use water, cleaners or
solvents to clean the smoke alarm as they may damage the smoke alarm. Do not paint the
smoke detector. For information on how to maintain your smoke detector, refer to the smoke
detector user’s guide.
Battery
The smoke alarm will not function if the battery is missing, disconnected, dead, the wrong
type of battery is used or the battery is not installed correctly. The smoke detector requires
one standard 9V battery.
When the battery becomes weak, the smoke alarm will “beep” about once a minute (the low
battery warning). This low battery warning should last for 30 days, but you should replace
the battery immediately to continue your protection.

therefore, the alarm cannot be installed to the mounting bracket without a battery.
Regardless of the manufacturer’s suggested battery life, you MUST replace the battery once
the smoke alarm starts “beeping” (the low battery warning). For information on the correct
battery and battery installation for your smoke detector, refer to the smoke detector user’s
guide.
Replacement
Smoke alarms have a limited life and are not foolproof. Smoke alarms will wear out over
time like any appliance. Always replace the detector immediately if it is not working
