Also please read all instructions, notices and warnings on the travel trailer, its systems
and appliances.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS MAY
RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
If you sell your travel trailer, please
make certain that this manual and the other manuals furnished with your travel trailer
are given to the new owner. NOTE: Please refer to the label on the front of your Skyline
trailer in the area of the Propane tanks which refers to safety precautions pertaining to the
Propane system.
PROPANE, CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTORS, AND SMOKE ALARMS
Your travel trailer was designed and built to meet all applicable standards for normal rec-
reational use. For your safety a Propane detector, carbon monoxide detector and a smoke
detector have been installed in the kitchen/hall/living area.
Since Propane is heavier than air, the Propane detector has been mounted near the fl oor.
Test the detector after the trailer has been in storage, before each trip, and once a week
during use. Follow the test procedure recommended in the manufacturers operating
instructions. (See fi gure 28)
The carbon monoxide detector warns of excessive levels of carbon monoxide given off
by internal combustion engines and some other fossil fuel burning appliances. Test the
carbon monoxide detector after the trailer has been in storage, before each trip, and once
a week during use. Note, the carbon monoxide detector requires a ten (10) minute warm
up period once it is energized. See the manufacturer's operation instructions for opera-
tion and testing procedures. If the detector does not operate properly, have the detector
repaired or replaced. (See fi gure 30)
Both the Propane detector and the CO detector are wired to the 12 volt system of your
trailer. They will function properly whenever 12 volt power is available from the tow
vehicle through the 7-way power cord, the RV battery, or when the converter is energized
through the 120 volt shoreline.
For protection in all circumstances (i.e. dry camping) a
fully charged RV battery must be properly installed.
A battery-powered smoke alarm complying with ANSI A119.2/NFPA 1192 is mounted
on the wall in the living / cooking area of your trailer. Please read the smoke alarm's
Owner's Manual for details on testing and caring for this important safety device. Test the
smoke alarm after the trailer has been in storage, before each trip, and once a week during
use. Depress and hold the test button on the cover for up to 20 seconds. The horn should
sound a loud alarm. If the horn does not sound, check that the battery is inserted properly
and is fresh. If the battery is dead, replace it promptly and retest the alarm. If the alarm
still does not sound, have it replaced. (See fi gure 29)
WARNING:
Actuation of your CO alarm indicates the presence of carbon monoxide
(CO) which can KILL YOU. If the alarm sounds; 1) Operate the reset/silence button; 2)
Call your emergency services (Phone Number __________________) (fi re department
or 911); 3) Immediately move to fresh air - outdoors or by an open door/window. Do a
head count to check that all persons are accounted for . Do not reenter the premises nor
move away from the open door/window until the emergency responders have arrived,
the premises have been aired out, and your alarm remains in its normal operation. 4)
After following steps 1-3, if your alarm reactivates within a 24 hour period, repeat steps
1-3 and call a qualifi ed appliance technician. (Phone Number _________________) to
investigate for sources of CO from fuel burning equipment and appliances, and inspect
for proper operation of this equipment. If problems are identifi ed during this inspection
have the equipment serviced immediately. Note any combustion equipment not inspected
by the technician and consult the manufacturers' instructions, or contact the manufacturer
directly, for more information about CO safety and this equipment.
