SMOKE ALARM
Your motorhome is equipped with a Smoke
Alarm (located on the ceiling in the lounge area.)
The Smoke Alarm is powered by a 9-volt battery
and has a sensor that is designed to detect smoke.
The following label is affixed to the Smoke
Alarm.
Replacement
When replacing this alarm, we recommend
replacing only with the same model, or with one
that is also listed for RV application. We
recommend obtaining a replacement from your
Winnebago Industries
®
dealer.
Expiration and Further Information
See the manufacturer’s information in your
InfoCase for smoke alarm expiration and further
instructions.
FIRE EXTINGUISHER
A dry chemical Fire Extinguisher is located
near the main entrance door.
We recommend that you become thoroughly
familiar with the operating instructions displayed
on the side of the Fire Extinguisher and in the
information supplied in your InfoCase.
We also recommend that you inspect the Fire
Extinguisher for proper charge at least once a
month in accordance with National Fire
Protection Association (NFPA)
recommendations as stated on the label.
If the extinguisher is past its expiration date or
charge is insufficient, the Fire Extinguisher must
be replaced.
Replacement
If for any reason you must replace the Fire
Extinguisher, the replacement must be the same
type and size as the one originally supplied in
your motorhome. We recommend obtaining a
replacement only from your Winnebago
Industries
®
dealer or a reliable RV parts supplier.
ELECTRICAL
•
Careless handling of electrical components
can be fatal. Never touch or use electrical
components or appliances while feet are bare,
while hands are wet, or while standing in
water or on wet ground.
WARNING
Test smoke alarm operation after vehicle
has been in storage, before each trip, and
at least once per week during use. Failure
to do so can result in death or serious
injury.

NOTICE
Do not test the fire extinguisher by
discharging it. Partial discharge can
cause leakage of pressure or contents,
which would render the unit inoperative
when needed. When using the fire
extinguisher, aim the spray at the base of
the fire.
