Smoke Detector
Statistics
show that most
fire casualties
are not caused
by direct flame,
but by less
visible smoke
(products of
combustion).
The smoke
detector
automatically
returns from alarm to normal state when the
reason for activation, the presence of smoke, is
completely removed. Fires are commonly caused
by smoking in bed, leaving children unattended
or using flammable cleaning fluids. Please be
safety conscious and avoid unnecessary risk.
WARNING:
There is no way to insure against
injury or loss of life in a fire; however,
the smoke detector is intended to help
reduce the risk of tragedy. Additional
smoke detectors may help to reduce the
risk. Proper use and care of the smoke
detector could save lives.
Operation
When a 9 Volt DC battery is correctly
connected the LED flashes every minute and
a loud alarm will sound when a production of
combustion is sensed.
NOTE:
The unit will not operate without a
battery. A battery flag will pop up
preventing the unit from being installed
to the mounting bracket without a
battery. Carbon zinc batteries average a
service life of one year. Alkaline batteries
average a service life of one to two years.
Testing
Simply press the test button on the smoke
alarm cover for approximately three seconds.
The alarm will sound if all electronic circuitry,
horn and battery are working properly. The
smoke alarm should be tested at least once a
week when the motorhome is in use, prior to
each trip and when the motorhome has been in
storage. When testing the smoke alarm it
is advised to stand at arm’s length.
CAUTION:
Never use an
open flame to
test the smoke
alarm as this
may ignite
the alarm or
surrounding
area and set
fire to the
motorhome.
Maintenance
Maintenance for Proper Operation:
Test the smoke alarm once a week.
Keep a supply of 9 Volt DC batteries on
hand.
Vacuum the slots in the cover and sides
with a soft brush attachment every
month. Test the smoke alarm after the
unit has been vacuumed.
The smoke alarm will beep once a
minute when a low battery exists.
Replace battery immediately.
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. If the smoke alarm is
within the warranty period and the terms indicate
the nature of the problem, return the unit to your
dealer. Smoke detectors beyond the warranty
period cannot be economically repaired.
