Smoke Detector - forest river Travel Trailer Owner's Manual

IDENTIFICATION AND SAFETY

Smoke Detector

• Smoke alarms may not have time to alarm before
the fire causes damage, injury or even death.
• A smoke detector works for only detecting smoke,
not fire.
• The alarm will sound only if smoke reaches the
sensor.
• Check the battery/s at least once a week while the
RV is in use.
• This unit will not alert hearing-impaired residents.
(Special alarms with flashing strobe lights are
needed for the hearing impaired.)
• Smoke alarms have a limited life and are not
foolproof.
• Never attempt to repair this unit; replace if faulty.
• Never disconnect the battery to silence the alarm.
W ARNING
Smoke, propane and CO alarms may have an expi-
ration date. Please consult the individual Owner's
Manual or on-line at www.forestriverinc.com.
CO Detector
• The carbon monoxide detector is designed to detect
carbon monoxide from any source of combustion. It
is NOT designed to detect smoke, fire or any other
gases.
• This detector doesn't work without batteries. DO
NOT remove batteries except for replacement.
• Test alarm each week while RV is in use and before
beginning a trip. Press the 'TEST' button. If the
alarm fails to sound, replace the unit immediately.
DO NOT attempt to repair.
• For more information, please consult the individual
Owner's Manual or on-line at www.forestriverinc.com.
Propane Detector
• This detector senses propane in the air, not smoke
or fire or other gases. It detects the presence of
propane at the sensor; explosive gas may be pres-
ent in other areas.
• Test your propane detector weekly. If the alarm is
located behind a closed door, it may not be heard.
• DO NOT attempt to repair the detector. If it fails the
test, change batteries. If it still does not function
properly, replace the entire unit.

Owner's Manual or on-line at www.forestriverinc.com.
