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
may be detected for months after the vehicle
was constructed (see Formaldehyde).
If the alarm sounds
1. Turn off all propane gas appliances (i.e.,
stove, water heater, furnace, etc.).
2. Open all windows and roof vents and
execute your family safety plan.
3. Turn OFF the propane tank valve.
4. Do not touch any electrical switch or use
any phone or radio in the RV.
5. Do not start any vehicle engine or
generator.
6. Determine and repair the source of the
leak.
7. Do not re-enter the RV until the problem is
corrected.
If the propane alarm keeps sounding at
regular intervals, a propane leak may be
present. Contact your dealer or propane gas
service to have the problem corrected before
using the propane system again.
Testing the propane leak alarm
If the propane alarm does not test properly,
replace it immediately. Do not remove the
following label from your RV:
Fig. 2.3 Propane alarm testing label
Battery or converter power source
The propane alarm is powered by 12-volt DC
through the converter or from an auxiliary
battery. This propane alarm is continuously
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.
The propane alarm should never be
disabled because of nuisance or low
battery alarms. If the auxiliary battery cable
is disconnected, and other 12-volt power is
not available, the propane alarm will not
work and you will not be warned if leaking
propane is present.
