exhaust system at all.
In the event of an alarm, the following steps should be taken quickly:
1. If the alarm signal sounds (4 beeps and flashing or solid red light), operate the Test/Mute button.
2. Immediately move to a source of fresh air, either outdoors or by and open door or window. Do a
“head count” to make sure that all people (and pets!) within the motor home have moved to a source
of fresh air, too. Do not reenter the motor home or move away from the source(s) of fresh air until the
emergency responders have arrived, the motor-home interior is sufficiently aired out, and the alarm has
reverted to its normal monitoring function (i.e., no alarms).
3. Call the local emergency services (i.e., 911 in most locales) to summon help -- don’t go back into motor
home to make this call, but use a cell phone, if available, or have someone else nearby make this call.
4. Should the CO/LP gas detector alarm again activate within a 24-hour period, repeat Steps 1 through 3
and also call a qualified service technician to investigate the possible sources of CO (e.g., fuel-burning
equipment and appliances) to locate, identify, and fix such.
Warning
Test the alarm’s operation after each storage period, before each trip or at least once
per week during use.
