ELECTRIC WIRING ANNUALLY
If you suspect a gas leak - never use
a naked flame to search - always use
soapy liquid or - better still - call your
caravan dealer.
Important
With any extinguisher, never use it on a pan
of fat - this is very dangerous - always use a
fire blanket.
To tackle a pan fire: First of all, if possible try
to turn off the gas. Make sure you are aware
of the position of the gas isolating taps -
usually placed in the sink unit cupboard.
Never throw a flaming pan outside, keep
your hands away from the flames and
smother the flame.
Try to remain calm.
Do not throw the blanket on the fire but place
over the pan paying particular attention to
the handle.
Fire Precautions
Make sure you are aware of the operation
and location of escape windows and doors.
It is advisable to carry a fire extinguisher (a
dry powder is recommended) positioned as
near to the exterior door as possible.
A fire blanket approved to BS 6575 is also
advisable positioned as near to the cooking
area as possible.
Check the fire regulations on arrival at sites.
Do not leave pans on the stove unattended.
Do not leave matches within easy reach of
small children.
Never leave small children alone in the
caravan.
Do not smoke in bed.
Do not block up ventilators.
SMOKE ALARM
The Code of Practice requires that a smoke
alarm is fitted in your caravan. Every new
manufactured caravan has a smoke alarm
fitted as standard equipment.
Connecting the battery
Your alarm requires one 9 volt battery to
power the smoke detector portion of the unit.
Under normal use, the battery powering the
smoke detector should last approximately one
year. See label inside smoke alarm lid for
suitable batteries.
With a pencil, write the date of battery
installation on the inside of the cover to
remind you when to replace the battery.
Lift battery from battery holder and snap
battery connectors to battery. They fit together
only one way.
Gently push battery into battery holder.
To close the cover match up snap-in hinges
and gently press together until base and
cover snap together.
IMPORTANT : When the battery is first
connected the alarm may sound for 2–3
seconds.
THIS IS NORMAL.
It means the battery is connected
correctly.
Replacing the battery
Test the alarm for correct operation using the
test button whenever the battery is replaced.
When battery power is low and replacement
is necessary, the alarm will ‘beep’ about once
per minute for at least 30 days. The battery
must then be replaced. Replace battery if the
