Alarm; Testing - Monaco Cayman 2005 Owner's Manual

The indicator light displays a specific color to monitor along with a matching sound pattern:
Indicator Lights and Sound Patterns:
• ON or normal condition is indicated by green. The CO detector has power and is sensing
air for the presence of CO gas. The alarm horn will not sound.
• Flashing red indicates low CO alarm condition along with four beeps then OFF for 5 sec-
onds. The alarm horn will sound and can be reset by the TEST/RESET button. The CO
detector has detected the presence of 70 ppm.
• Steady red indicates a CO ALARM condition. The detector has sensed the presence of
levels over 100 ppm of Carbon Monoxide. The alarm horn will sound continuously until
the RESET switch is reset.
• Alternating red and green indicates a malfunction alarm.
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.
Potential Sources of CO when operating the motorhome:
• Engine Exhaust
• Portable Space Heaters
• Gas Stoves and Ovens
• Defective Engine Exhaust System
• Nearby Motorhomes
Test Procedures:
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/RESET button in until
the alarm sounds. The alarm will sound four beeps and the indicator lamp goes steady red. Six seconds
later the alarm will again beep four times and the indicator light goes steady green.
