EARTHBOUND RECREATIONAL VEHICLE TRAILER OWNER'S MANUAL
WEEKLY TESTING OF YOUR SMOKE ALARM
1. FOR A COMPLETE WEEKLY TEST OF THE ELECTRONICS AND THE SENSOR OPERATION,
FIRMLY DEPRESS THE TEST BUTTON ON THE COVER OF THE SMOKE ALARM FOR A FEW
SECONDS. The smoke LED (light emitting diode), which is the indicator light under the clear Push-‐to-‐
Test button, will blink once per second while the button is being pushed and the alarm is sounding. The
smoke alarm will stop sounding when you release the button.
2. If your smoke alarm has the False Alarm Control or Safety Light feature see "SPECIAL SMOKE
ALARM FEATURES" for further testing information.
Please refer to the smoke alarm's owner's manual for detail information regarding its proper use.
WARNING
: If your smoke alarm does not respond as described in any of the above tests,
check that a good battery is properly installed. If a good battery is properly installed, promptly
remove the unit, repack it and return it for repair or replacement.
CAUTION
: You should only use the batteries specified here or on the label of the unit.
CAUTION
: Do not use any type of rechargeable batteries.
WARNING
: Very thick smoke may obscure the light.
LP GAS DETECTOR
A LP gas leak detector was installed in your Earthbound RV at the factory. LP gas is a
mixture of gases produced and sold commercially as a fuel for heating and cooking appliances. LP gas is
highly flammable and, as a result, can be explosive if ignited under certain circumstances. LP gas is heavier
than air and, if confined in a closed space, will accumulate close to the floor.
WARNING
Activation of this detector indicates the presence of LP gas, which can cause
an explosion and/or fire. This normally indicates a leak in the LP gas installation or a LP gas
appliance. Extinguish all open flames, open your windows and door and evacuate the unit
immediately. Do not activate any electrical switch. Turn off the LP at your gas bottle(s). DO NOT
RE-ENTER YOUR UNIT UNTIL A QUALIFIED REPAIR TECHNICIAN HAS CORRECTED
THE PROBLEM.
OPERATION
Please refer to the LP gas detector's owner's manual for specific details regarding its proper use and periodic
testing procedures.
COMPONENT FAILURE
The failure of any circuit component will cause the detector to display a continuous orange LED fault light
and a short beep indicating failure. If this occurs, immediately contact your dealer or Earthbound RV Customer
Service for the name of the nearest detector service center.
Please read the operating instructions for your detector, which have been supplied with the paper work of
your unit.
WARNING
- Have a professional check your system if you have any doubts.
