If your CO alarm reactivates within a 24-hour
period, repeat steps 1-3 and call a qualified
appliance technician to investigate for
sources of carbon monoxide from fuel burning
equipment and appliances, and inspect for
proper operation of this equipment (if
problems are identified during this inspection,
have the CO alarm replaced immediately).
Note any combustion equipment not
inspected by the technician. Make sure that
any motor vehicle is not and has not been
operating in an attached garage or adjacent
to your RV.
Batteries
The CO alarm will not function if the batteries
are missing, disconnected, dead, the wrong
type of battery is used or the batteries are
installed incorrectly. When the batteries
become weak, the CO alarm will "beep" (the
low battery warning). If the low battery
warning sounds, the batteries MUST be
replaced. Never disconnect the batteries to
silence the CO alarm.
Testing the CO alarm
Press and hold the test/reset button on the
front of the CO alarm for several seconds. If
the CO alarm does not test properly, replace it
immediately. Do not remove the following
label from your RV:

Maintenance
The CO alarm is pre-calibrated at the OEM
factory and requires no maintenance other
than to clean the outside casing occasionally
with a cloth. Ensure that the holes on the front
of the CO alarm are not blocked with dirt and
dust.
DO NOT USE CLEANING AGENTS,
BLEACH OR POLISH .

For your safety protection, a new RV that
contains a propane gas system with propane
consuming appliances must have a propane
leak detection device. Because the chemical
composition of propane is heavier than air,
the propane alarm is located near the floor of
the RV (leaking propane tends to flow to and
pocket in low areas). A lit green LED indicates
when the factory-installed alarm is active.
Individuals with medical problems, or who are
hard of hearing, should consider using
warning devices that provide both audible and
visual signals.
This alarm is designed to sense the presence
of propane gas; however, there are other
combustible fumes or vapors that may be
detected by the sensor including (but not
limited to) acetone, alcohol, butane and
gasoline. These chemicals can be found in
commonly used items such as deodorants,
colognes, perfumes, adhesives, lacquer,
kerosene, glues, wine, liquor, most cleaning
agents and the propellants of aerosol cans.
High temperatures can activate glue and
adhesive vapors. If you close up your RV on a
hot day, the chemicals used in its construction
If the CO alarm is not maintained and
functioning properly according to OEM
supplied instructions, you will not be
warned if carbon monoxide is present in
the air. Death or serious illness could
result from asphyxiation (inability to
breathe) if carbon monoxide is present.
The alarm cannot detect propane or sound
a warning for two minutes after it has been
turned on. The propane leak alarm is not a
smoke or fire alarm. The alarm will only
indicate the presence of propane gas at
the sensor. Explosive gas may be present
in other areas.
