soft dry cloth. Ensure that the alarm sensor is
not blocked with dirt and dust.

LARM
Carbon monoxide (CO) is an insidious poison.
It is a colorless, odorless and tasteless gas
produced by the incomplete combustion of
the fossil fuels. It is important to have a good
ventilation, maintain all appliances regularly
and have a functioning carbon monoxide
alarm
Early symptoms of carbon monoxide
poisoning are often mistaken for the flu
because the deadly gas goes undetected.
Many cases of reported carbon monoxide
poisoning indicate while victims are aware
they are not well, they become so disoriented
they are unable to save themselves by either
exiting the RV or calling for assistance.
The CO alarm is designed to detect the toxic
carbon monoxide fumes that result from
incomplete combustion, such as those
emitted from appliances, furnaces, fireplaces
and auto exhaust.
•
A CO alarm is
NOT A SUBSTITUTE
for
other combustible gas, fire or smoke
alarms. There are hazards against which
The following symptoms are related to
carbon monoxide poisoning and should be
discussed with all members of the
household:
Mild exposure -
Slight headache, nausea,
vomiting, fatigue (often described as "flu-
like" symptoms).
Medium exposure -
Throbbing headaches,
drowsiness, confusion, fast heart rate.
Extreme exposure -
Convulsions,
unconsciousness, heart and lung failure.
Exposure to carbon monoxide can cause
brain damage, death.
Actuation of this alarm may indicate the
presence of carbon monoxide that can
KILL YOU. This alarm will only indicate
the presence of carbon monoxide gas at
the sensor. Carbon monoxide gas may be
present in other areas.
If you are in a RV with either a nearby tow
vehicle engine running or the generator (if
so equipped) running there is a potential
for exhaust fumes to filter back into the RV.
Avoid inhaling exhaust gases as they
contain carbon monoxide, which is a
potentially toxic gas that is colorless and
odorless.
