Propane System
Activation of this device indicates the presence of LP gas, which can
cause an explosion and/or fire. This normally indicates a leak in the
LP gas piping or an LP gas appliance.
Test Detector operation after vehicle has been in storage, before
each trip, and at least once per month during use.
This detector will only indicate the presence of LP gas at the sensor.
LP gas may be present in other areas.
The detector is not suitable as a smoke or fire detector.
The detector is powered by a 12-volt source. Any interruption in
power will render this alarm inoperative. Always ensure power is
supplied especially when appliances are in use.
This device detects the presence of LP gas. IT DOES NOT
DISCONNECT THE GAS SUPPLY.
The Propane Leak Detector Alarm draws enough current to
discharge your batteries. Remember to turn the battery disconnect
switch to the 'off' position or disconnect the batteries during storage.
DO NOT attempt to repair the detector. If it fails to work properly as
outlined in its operation manual replace the entire unit.
The alarm may sound at times when no LP gas is present due to
household product use such as aerosol hairspray, certain cleaners,
adhesives, alcohol, etc.

6.
Have the propane system checked and leakage source corrected
before using again.
