Never turn the 12-volt battery disconnect control to the off position and
disconnect the battery cable to silence an alarm. The alarm will automatically
sense when the level of carbon monoxide in the air reaches below dangerous
levels. You should stay outside the vehicle in fresh air until the alarm is
silenced. When the alarm sounds, do not stand too close to the alarm. The
sound produced by the alarm is loud because it is designed to wake a person
in an emergency. Prolonged exposure to the alarm at a close distance may be
harmful to your hearing.:
Alarm Signals
Normal Operation: The LED will maintain a steady green light, indicating that the
alarm is powered.
CO alarm condition: The red LED light will remain steady and the alarm will sound 4
"BEEPS" then silent for 5 seconds. These signals indicate immediate action is required.
Propane gas alarm: The red LED light will flash and the alarm will sound a steady tone.
These signals indicate immediate action is required.
Alarm malfunction/low battery: The gas LED will remain off and the Operational/CO
LED will alternate re/green and the alarm will sound once every 15 seconds.
End of life alarm: The LED will flash red/red, green/green and the alarm will "BEEP
every 25-30 seconds. The alarm should be immediately replaced.
Maintenance
Vacuum the alarm cover at least once a year. Clean the cover by hand using a cloth dampened
in clean water. Dry with a soft cloth. Do not spray the front panel of the alarm with cleaning
agents or waxes. This action may damage the sensor causing an alarm or cause the alarm to
malfunction. Do not paint the face of the alarm.
Testing the combination carbon monoxide/ propane alarm
Test the alarm operation after the RV has been in storage, before each trip and
at least once per week during use.
The TEST/RESET button tests all ELECTRICAL functions of the alarm. The TEST/Mute
switch is located on the front of the alarm. Press and hold the test button for 1 second. The
alarm is working properly if the GREEN indicator light changes color to RED and the horn
beeps 4 times. The Gas LED should also blink red.
NOTE: Pressing the test button does not check the sensor opera-
tion. Refer to the carbon monoxide/propane alarm manufacturers
user's manual provided in the Warranty Packet for additional informa-
tion on testing the sensors.
