On The Road
05-18
protect yourself and others from the effects of car-
bon monoxide poisoning.
Beware of the symptoms of exhaust gas (carbon
monoxide) poisoning:
Dizziness
Vomiting
Nausea
Muscular twitching
Intense headache
Throbbing in temples
Weakness and sleepiness
Inability to think clearly
If you or others experience any of these symp-
toms, get out into fresh air immediately. If
symptoms persist, seek medical attention. Shut
down the unit and do not operate it until it has
been inspected and repaired.
Carbon Monoxide Detector/Alarm
Your motor home is equipped with a carbon
monoxide (CO) detector/alarm.
If the detector/alarm sounds, it is an indication
that unacceptable levels of carbon monoxide gas
are present. This may occur in traffic concentra -
tions or in campgrounds where other vehicles as
well as your motor home are contributing to the
carbon monoxide level in the surrounding air.
Sounding of the detector/alarm does not indicate
a faulty detector/alarm. The detector/alarm is
doing its job of warning you of potentially high
concentrations of carbon monoxide.
Test the CO detector/alarm after the motor home
has been in storage, before each trip, and at
least once a week during use. Please refer to the
materials included in your Owner’s Information
Package.
WARNING
Do not under any circumstances operate any
engine or the cooking stove or range while
sleeping. You would not be able to monitor
outside conditions to assure that engine exhaust
does not enter the interior, and you would not be
alert to exhaust odors or symptoms of carbon
monoxide poisoning.
!
WARNING
Exhaust gases are deadly. Do not block the tail-
pipes, or exhaust ports, or situate the vehicle
in a place where the exhaust gases have any
possibility of accumulating either outside,
underneath, or inside your vehicle or any nearby
vehicles. Outside air movements can carry
exhaust gases inside the vehicle through win-
dows or other openings remote from the exhaust
outlet. Operate the engine(s), carbon mon-
oxide-producing systems or components only
when safe dispersion of exhaust gases can be
assured. Monitor outside conditions to be sure
that exhaust continues to be dispersed safely.
!
WARNING
When operating the on-board generator for electrical
power and using the overhead kitchen vent fan,
regardless of the outside temperature, open a
window “slightly”. This will reduce the chances of
drawing harmful Carbon Monoxide into the passenger
compartment.
!
WARNING
The propane alarm cannot detect propane gas or
sound the alarm for two minutes after it has been
turned on.
!
NOTE
When the propane alarm is in the “active” and
functioning mode, the green LED will be illuminated.

WARNING
Never use a cigarette lighter to test the propane
alarm. Damage to the sending unit of the alarm may
occur, disabling the alarm from operating correctly.
!
WARNING
Test the operation of the propane alarm after the unit
has been in storage, before each trip and a minimum
of once per week.
