Be aware the smoke alarm is not fool proof and cannot detect fires if smoke does not
reach it. Anything preventing smoke from reaching the alarm may delay or prevent an
alarm.
Though the alarm horn in this detector meets or exceeds current UL standards, it may not be
heard for reasons that include (but not limited to): a closed or partially closed door, other
noise from electronics, appliances or traffic.
This smoke alarm will not alert hearing impaired residents. Special
alarms with flashing strobe lights are recommended for the hearing
impaired
Only use the replacement battery recommended by the smoke detector
manufacturer. The smoke detector alarm may not operate properly with
other batteries. Never use a rechargeable battery as it may not provide a
constant charge. Never disconnect the battery to silence the alarm.
Test the smoke alarm operation after the vehicle has been in storage,
before each trip and at least once per week during use. Do not disconnect
the battery or the alarm.
The smoke alarm is operational once the battery is correctly installed. It will not
function if the battery is missing, disconnected, dead, the wrong type or not installed
correctly. It requires one standard 9V battery. Refer to the user's guide, for correct
battery and installation information,
The LED light will indicate the battery is functioning properly. When the production of
combustion is sensed, the smoke detector sounds a loud alarm that continues until the air is
cleared. The LED light will also give a visual indication of a sounding alarm.
When the battery becomes weak, the alarm will "beep" about once a minute indicating
a low battery. This warning should last for 30 days. You MUST replace the battery once the
alarms low battery warning (beep) starts to assure continued protection.
When the battery is removed from the alarm, the battery flag will pop up; the alarm cannot
be installed to the mounting bracket without a battery.
To test, stand at arm's length from the smoke alarm as the alarm horn is loud and may be
harmful to your hearing. The test button will accurately test all functions. Never use an
open flame to test the smoke alarm.
Do not remove the warning label located near the
smoke alarm from your recreation vehicle:
Maintenance

solvents to clean the smoke alarm as they may damage
the alarm. Do not paint the smoke alarm. Refer to
the manufacturer's use guide for detailed maintenance
information.
