Maintenance
Steps to keep the smoke alarm working
properly:
Test the smoke alarm once a week.
Keep a supply of 9 Volt DC batteries on
hand.
Vacuum the slots in the cover and sides
with a soft brush attachment every
month. Test the smoke alarm once the
unit has been vacuumed.
The smoke alarm beeps once a minute
when a low battery exists. Replace
battery immediately.
Troubleshooting
If the alarm does not sound when the test
button is pushed, or with a smoke test, try the
following:
Inspect alarm for obvious damage.
Check for the recommended battery type.
Check the battery for proper connection
or replace the battery if needed.
Gently vacuum as recommended.
If these procedures do not correct the problem,
do not attempt repairs. If the smoke alarm
is within the warranty period and the terms
indicate the nature of the problem, return the
unit to your dealer. Smoke detectors beyond
the warranty period cannot be economically
repaired.

American National Standards Institute
(ANSI)
A119.2 - Fire & Life Safety 3-4.6 Carbon
Monoxide Detectors
states
“All RV’s equipped
with an internal combustion engine or designed
with features to accommodate future installation
of an internal combustion engine and truck
campers shall be equipped with a listed CO
detector installed in accordance with its listing.”
The motorhome is equipped with a Carbon
Monoxide detector. Everyone is at risk with
Carbon Monoxide poisoning. Carbon Monoxide
(CO) is a colorless, odorless and tasteless gas
that binds with hemoglobin reducing the body’s
ability to absorb and carry oxygen to vital
organs. Even low levels of CO have been known
to cause brain and other vital organ damage in
unborn infants, with no effect on the mother.
When removed from exposure, the symptoms
dissipate as Carbon Monoxide is expelled
through the lungs. Level of contamination
in the body reduces at half-life increments at
approximately four-hour intervals. Treatment
with Oxygen will quicken recovery time.
In cases of mild exposure, the symptoms may
include: a slight headache, nausea, vomiting
and fatigue. Some consider this a “Flu-like
Symptom.” Symptoms for medium exposure
may include a severe throbbing headache,
drowsiness, confusion and fast heart rate.
Extreme exposure can result in unconsciousness,
convulsions, cardio-respiratory failure and
death. Young children and household pets may
be the first affected. Other highly sensitive
people include the elderly and those with lung or
heart disease or anemia.
The CO detector is designed to detect the toxic
CO Gas resulting from incomplete combustion
of any fuel. This can be gasoline, propane,
natural gas, oil, charcoal or wood. Anything that
burns fuel such as engines, generators, furnaces,
gas stoves or water heaters, produce CO Gas.
Consequently, it is uncommon for household
smoke from cigarettes or normal cooking to
cause the alarm to sound.
CAUTION
Activation of this device indicates the
presence of carbon monoxide (CO),
which can be fatal. A concentration of
above 100 PPM will cause a warning
condition. Individuals with medical
problems may consider using detection
devices with lower carbon monoxide
alarming capabilities. Prolonged
exposure to the horn at a close distance
may be harmful to hearing.
