Section 2: Occupant Safety
When the battery becomes weak, the alarm will “beep” about once a minute indicating
a low battery. This warning should last for 30 days. You MUST replace the battery once the
alarms low battery warning (beep) starts to assure continued protection.
When the battery is removed from the alarm, the battery flag will pop up; the alarm cannot
be installed to the mounting bracket without a battery.
To test, stand at arm’s length from the smoke alarm as
the alarm horn is loud and may be harmful to your hear-
ing. The test button will accurately test all functions.
Never use an open flame to test the smoke alarm.
Do not remove the warning label located near the
smoke alarm from your recreation vehicle.

Combination Carbon Monoxide /Propane Alarm
Your recreation vehicle is equipped with a combi-
nation carbon monoxide (CO) / propane alarm (RV-
COLP) that is listed for use in recreation vehicles.
The combination carbon monoxide/propane alarm
will only work if it is operational and maintained.
The alarm is directly wired to the 12-volt electrical
system, with continuous power being supplied by
the recreational vehicle batteries. There is no 9-volt
battery power supply. As a result, the alarm is al-
ways drawing a small amount of current from the
recreation vehicle batteries. Although the current
draw is slight, it could drain the batteries during ex-
tended storage periods. This condition is not likely
to occur except during storage situations when the
inverter cannot restore the battery charge. If the
battery cable is disconnected at the battery ter-
minals, the combination alarm will not work.
