Battery Replacement - Smoke Alarm

Battery powered units will not operate and can not be mounted, when the battery compartment is
empty. Ensure that FRESH 9-volt batter is installed.
Always install a Gold Peak 1604P or any Alkaline battery. Always test after a new battery is
installed.
I
WARNING: USE ONLY BATTERIES SPECIFIED. Use of different batteries may
have a detrimental effect on alarm operation.
Under normal use, replace battery once a year. When battery starts to weaken, the alarm will beep at
least once a minute for 7 days minimum. Replace battery immediately should this low battery signal
occur. If the low battery signal is ignored or if the replacement battery is severely depleted, the
alarm may sound continuously as if it were in alarm. This is a warning that a proper fresh battery
must be installed immediately.
Constant exposure to high or low temperatures or high humidity may reduce battery life.

ENTRANCE STEP

Covering Nicks and Scratches

• Seal any nicks or scratches with an automotive grade primer to prevent rust.
• Once the nick or scratch has been sealed, cover the damaged area with an automotive grade
high-gloss paint.

Lubricating the Mechanism

NOTE: It is recommended that you lubricate the mechanism
every 30-60 days.
• Carefully clean the area around the pivot points (Fig. 7-8)
(the rivets involved in the motion of the mechanism).
• After cleaning, lubricate the pivot points between the parts
(to pinpoint the area, locate the washer between the parts).
An automotive grade, non-staining lubricant is
recommended.

CAUTION: To prevent the possibility of a person slipping on the park trailer step, avoid
letting any excess lubricant come in contact with the surface of the park trailer step itself.
Carefully clean the entire park trailer step after lubricating the mechanism.
