LP GAS DETECTOR

In the kitchen area of your unit, approximately six inches above the floor, is the
LP gas detector. LP gas is a mixture of gases produced and sold commercially
as a fuel for heating and cooking appliances. LP gas is highly flammable and,
as a result, can be explosive if ignited under certain circumstances. LP gas is
heavier than air and,
If confined in a closed space, will accumulate close to the floor. When the LP
gas concentration in your unit exceeds 2000 PPM the detector will provide a
visual and audible alarm by sounding a buzzer and flashing the red LED two
times per second.
dangEr
: Activation of this detector indicates the presence of
LP gas, which can cause an explosion and/or fire. This normally indicates
a leak in the LP gas installation or a LP gas appliance. Extinguish all open
flames, open your windows and door and evacuate the unit immediately.
Do not activate any electrical switch. Turn off the LP at your gas bottle (s).
DO NOT RE-ENTER YOUR UNIT UNTIL A QUALIFIED REPAIR TECHNICIAN
HAS CORRECTED THE PROBLEM.
OPERATION
Your LP gas detector is wired directly to your vehicle battery and incorporates
a 1-amp in-line fuse. When the device is operating normally the green LED will
be lit.
nOTiCE
: It is not recommended that the detector be disconnected from
the battery during periods of storage. There is a small heater on the sen-
sor of the device, which "burns" away impurities in the air during periods
of normal use. During periods when power is interrupted, impurities can
build up on the sensor. When power is returned to the detector the detec-
tor alarm may activate until the impurities are "burned" off. This could take
a number of hours, during which time the alarm will be constantly "on".
DETECTOR TEST
Press the test button for 5 to 6 seconds until the alarm sounds then release the
test button. The red LED should flash and the alarm sound for approximately
