Procedures to Take During an Alarm

y
WARNING: The activation of the CO detector is a warning that indicates the
presence of carbon monoxide!
y
WARNING: Do not disconnect the CO detector to silence the alarm. The detector is
designed to sense when the level of CO in the air falls below the danger level. All
individuals must remain outside the unit until the alarm is silent.
If someone is suffering from an upset stomach, headache or other symptom, immediately move to
a location that has fresh air. Ensure that everyone is accounted for, including pets. Call the Fire
Department. Do not reenter the unit until the source of carbon monoxide has been located and
repaired by a qualified technician.
y
WARNING: Low levels of CO have been linked to brain and vital organ damage to
unborn infants with no effect on the mother. Pregnant women must leave the unit
immediately if an alarm is sounded and not return until the unit has been repaired and
aired out thoroughly.
If no one exhibits the symptoms associated with carbon monoxide:
1. Push the reset button.
2. Turn off all sources of combustion including the water heater, furnace, stove, oven,
motorhome engine.
3. Open the windows and doors and move to a location that has fresh air.
4. Call a qualified technician and have the problem corrected before restarting the appliances
and/or vehicles.

EMERGENCY EXIT WINDOW

An emergency exit window is installed in your motorhome, typically on the rear wall or sidewall
opposite the entry door. The window is identified by red snap latches and a white label with red
letters indicating "EXIT."
This window will allow a quick exit from the vehicle during an emergency if access to the main
door is not available. An emergency exit may also be available through the driver's side cab door.
Practice opening the window BEFORE an emergency occurs, and make sure all occupants know
how to operate it.
