Fault Alarm:
Should the microprocessor sense a fault in the gas detector, a fault alarm
will sound twice every 15 seconds. The LED will alternately flash red to
green and the MUTE switch will not respond to any command. The gas
detector must be repaired or replaced.
1. Vacuum the dust off the detector cover weekly (more frequently
in dusty locations) using the soft brush attachment of the vacuum.
2. Do not spray cleaning agents or waxes directly onto the front
panel. This action may damage the sensor, cause an alarm or
cause a detector malfunction.
The motorhome is equipped with a carbon monox-
ide detector. Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless,
odorless and tasteless gas. Even low levels of CO
have been known to cause brain and other vital organ
damage in unborn infants, with no effect on the moth-
er. 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-respi-
ratory failure and death. Young children and household
pets may be the first affected. The CO detector is
designed to detect the toxic CO fumes that result
from vehicle exhaust and incomplete combustion
sources like a furnace, gas stove or water heater.
Consequently, it is uncommon for household smoke
from cigarettes or normal cooking to cause the alarm
to sound.
NOTE: Activation of this device indi-
cates the presence of carbon monoxide
(CO) which can be fatal. A concentra-
tion of above 100 PPM will cause a
warning condition. Individuals with
medical problems may consider using
detection devices with lower carbon
monoxide alarming capabilities.
Prolonged exposure to the horn at a
close distance may be harmful to your
hearing.
