Maintenance
Maintenance for Proper Operation:
Test the smoke alarm once a week.
Keep a supply of 9 Volt DC batteries
on hand.
Periodically vacuum the slots in the
cover and sides with a soft brush
attachment.
Test the smoke alarm after the unit has
been vacuumed.
The smoke alarm will beep once a
minute when battery power is low.
Immediately replace the battery.
Troubleshooting
If the alarm does not sound when the test
button is pushed, or with a smoke test, try the
following:
Inspect alarm for obvious damage.
Check for the recommended battery
type.
Check the battery for proper
connection or replace the battery if
needed.
Gently vacuum as recommended.
If these procedures do not correct the
problem, Do not attempt repairs. Contact
the manufacturer of the alarm if the smoke
alarm is within the warranty period. Smoke
detectors beyond the warranty period cannot
be economically repaired.

American National Standards Institute
(
ANSI) 1192 - Fire & Life Safety 6.4.6
Carbon Monoxide Detectors
states “CO
detectors used must be listed as suitable for
use in RV’s and installed in accordance within
the terms of their listing. No specific mounting
location is mandated for CO detectors; only
that they be installed in accordance with their
listing. The installation of the CO detector
mounting bracket alone will be considered
acceptable as long as the CO detector is
provided.
A CO detector is required to be installed
in any RV that either contains an internal
combustion engine or is designed to have one
installed. This would include all motorized
RV’s, regardless of whether the fuel source is
gasoline, diesel, propane, or other alternate
fuel. This would also include an RV equipped
with a generator or designed to accommodate
future installation of a generator (commonly
called “generator prep” setups). This would
not include RV’s equipped to store or transport
internal combustion engine vehicles.
Also, all truck campers must have a
CO detector installed, since an internal
combustion engine is ultimately present once
the truck camper is mounted on a pickup
truck.”
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless,
odorless and tasteless gas that binds with
hemoglobin reducing the body’s ability to
absorb and carry oxygen to vital organs. Even
low levels of CO have been known to cause
brain and other vital organ damage in unborn
infants, with no effect on the mother.
When removed from exposure, the
symptoms dissipate as Carbon Monoxide
is expelled through the lungs. Level of
contamination in the body reduces at half-
life increments at approximately four-hour
intervals. Treatment with Oxygen will quicken
recovery time.
In cases of mild exposure, the symptoms
may include: a slight headache, nausea,
vomiting and fatigue. Symptoms for medium
exposure may include a severe throbbing
headache, drowsiness, confusion and fast
heart rate. Extreme exposure can result
in unconsciousness, convulsions, cardio-
respiratory failure and death.
