When the alarm sounds have the detector and the motorhome checked by
an authorized service technician as soon as possible. Never disconnect a CO
detector to silence an annoying alarm. Evacuate the motorhome immediately
when the RED light is lit and the alarm sounds. Do a head count to check that
all persons are accounted for. Call the nearest fire department and ask them to
determine the source of the carbon monoxide. Do not re-enter the motorhome
until it has been aired out and the problem corrected.
Test the carbon monoxide detector operation after the motorhome has been
in storage, before each trip and at least once a week during use. Test the alarm
by holding the test button in until the alarm sounds. The alarm will stop beeping
in about 30 seconds.
Use a vacuum cleaner to remove dust or any other buildup on the detector.
Do not wash. Wipe the detector with a damp cloth and dry it with a towel. Do
not open the detector for cleaning. Do not paint the detector. It is recommend
that the carbon monoxide detector be replaced every 10 years.
The fire extinguisher in the motorhome is located near the main entrance
door. Please read the operating instructions that are printed on the fire
extinguisher. If there is any doubt on how to operate the fire extinguisher, you
and your family should practice using it. Be sure to replace or recharge the
extinguisher immediately after use.
Inspect the fire extinguisher at least once a month. Do so more frequently if
the extinguisher is exposed to weather or possible tampering. Do not test the
extinguisher by partially discharging as this will cause a loss of pressure.
Use the PASS word!
Pull the pin to unlock the extinguisher.
Aim at the base (bottom) of the fire and stand
6-10 feet away.
Squeeze the lever to discharge the agent.
Sweep the spray from left to right until totally
extinguished.
