Section 2: Occupant Safety
Be sure to read, understand and follow the owner’s information from the manufacturer of
the combination CO/propane alarm. This includes information regarding the limited life of
the alarm.
Carbon monoxide (CO) is an insidious poison. It is a colorless, odorless and tasteless gas.
Many cases of reported carbon monoxide poisoning indicate while victims are aware they
are not well, they become so disoriented they are unable to save themselves by either exiting
the recreational vehicle or calling for assistance. Young children and household pets may
be the first affected.
Your combination carbon monoxide/propane alarm is designed to detect the toxic carbon
monoxide fumes that result from incomplete combustion, such as those emitted from appli-
ances, furnaces, fireplaces and auto exhaust.
A carbon monoxide/propane alarm is NOT A SUBSTITUTE for other combustible gas,
fire or smoke alarms. This carbon monoxide alarm is designed to detect carbon monoxide
gas from ANY source of combustion. It is not designed to detect smoke, fire or any other
gas. Please note that there are hazards against which carbon monoxide detection may not be
effective, such as natural gas leaks or explosions.
This alarm is designed to sense the presence of carbon monoxide/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, per-
 Do not cover or obstruct the carbon monoxide/propane alarm with any-
thing that could prevent gas from entering the alarm.
 This alarm is not designed to detect smoke, fire or gases other than car -
bon monoxide and propane.
 The carbon monoxide detector installed is intended for use in ordinary
indoor locations of recreation vehicles. It is not designed to comply with
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) commercial or
industrial standards.
 Do not disconnect the battery or the alarm.
 Individuals with medical problems may consider using warning devices
that provide audible and visual signals for carbon monoxide concentra-
tions under 30 PPM.
 This alarm will only indicate the presence of carbon monoxide gas at the
sensor. Carbon monoxide gas may be present in other areas.
 The ultimate responsibility for protection against toxic carbon monoxide
fumes rests solely on you. Installing a carbon monoxide/propane alarm
is just the first step in protecting your family from toxic carbon monox -
ide poisoning. The following symptoms are related to carbon monoxide
poisoning and should be discussed with all members of the household:
 Mild exposure: Slight headache, nausea, vomiting, fatigue (often de-
scribed as “flu-like” symptoms).
 Medium exposure: Severe throbbing headaches, drowsiness, confusion,
fast heart rate
 Extreme exposure: Unconsciousness, convulsions, cardio-respiratory
failure, death
