EMERGENCY EXIT
The Emergency Exit Window in all nuCamp campers is recognized by the
“EXIT” label and its red handles. This exit serves as a secondary means of
escape if the main door entrance gets blocked during an emergency. The
EXIT window is made of the same acrylic material and operates the same
as all other windows in the camper.
Practice the following:
• Teach all occupants how to operate the EXIT window before
an emergency.
• In the Family Safety Plan decide in what order occupants will exit
the camper in an emergency.
• When setting up the camper for use, check that the EXIT window
is not blocked by obstacles such as branches or trees. Have solid,
level ground below and outside the window with a clear path
of escape.
• Have a blanket or heavy coat ready to serve as a cushion on the
window frame.
• The last person to exit must be prepared to assist those going first.
• Open and close the Emergency Exit Window on each trip to keep
the window from potentially sticking to the seal.
• Lock the Emergency Exit window while traveling or hauling
the camper.
SMOKE ALARM
Your camper is equipped with a smoke alarm. The alarm will only sound
when smoke reaches it. Read the user manual for the smoke alarm to find
all needed information regarding its operation.
Important Information
:
• The alarm is powered by a standard 9-volt battery. When the
battery is connected a red LED light will blink.
• When the alarm is activated by smoke, it will beep repeatedly, and
the LED light will flash rapidly.
•
Never disable the alarm for nuisance sake or false alarms.
This
could be fatal if you forget to turn it back on. Ventilate the cabin
with fresh air instead.
• Test your smoke alarm with these steps:
1. Press and hold the test button until alarm sounds.
2. Alarm will beep about four times.
3. If there is no sound replace the alarm or supply a new battery.
• The smoke alarm is designed to give you advance notice to the
presence of smoke which may lead to open flames.
• If the alarm sounds, evacuate the camper immediately and call 911.
• Replace the alarm when it reaches its expiration date.
Test smoke alarm for proper function
after camper has been taken out of
storage, once per week and before each
trip. If the smoke alarm does not test
properly, replace it immediately.
WARNING
Never use open flame to test the smoke
alarm. This can set the smoke alarm and
your camper on fire.
WARNING
If the CO alarm sounds GET OUT of the
camper immediately to fresh air. Open
doors and windows and turn on fans to
air out the camper. Determine the cause
of the CO before reoccupying the camper.
