FIRE SAFETY
Smoke detectors
Your vehicle is fitted with a
battery-operated smoke alarm
that will emit a loud pulsating tone,
should smoke be detected in your
vehicle.
Smoke alarm
Once the battery is connected,
a small indicator light positioned
near the test button should
flash approximately once every
minute. This indicates that the
alarm is operating normally. It
is recommended that you test
your smoke alarm once a week
to ensure the detector is working
correctly:
• Push and hold the 'TEST’
button for approximately three
seconds.
• A loud pulsating alarm should
sound to indicate the detector
is functioning correctly.
• During the alarm test, the
LED indicator will flash
quickly.
If the smoke alarm emits a short
beep once a minute, the battery
is at the end of its life and should
be replaced immediately. This
low voltage warning will sound for
approximately seven days. We
would always recommend that the
battery is replaced at least every
twelve months to ensure correct
operation. If the LED indicator
does not flash every minute,
the battery should be replaced
immediately as this will indicate
that the battery is completely flat.
Upper bunks
Upper bunks are for sleeping only,
with protection against falling out
in position. Care should be taken
against the risk of falling out when
this bunk is used by children, and
we would advise that the upper
bunks are not suitable for children
under six years of age without
supervision.
Carbon monoxide alarm
If your vehicle is fitted with a
battery operated carbon monoxide
detector, it will detect dangerous
levels of carbon monoxide in your
motorhome and sound the alarm.
Once the batteries are connected,
a small power indicator light will
flash green once a minute to
indicate that the unit is receiving
power from the batteries and is
operational.
Test the sounder, batteries
and circuitry by pressing and
holding the test/rest button for
one second to confirm that the
detector is operating properly. A
noise should sound as soon as the
button is pressed, and the alarm
LED will illuminate red, indicating
that the sounder is working and
the batteries are providing power
to the unit. This test for the
sounder and batteries should be
performed weekly.
• Test the sounder, batteries
and circuitry of your detector
once per week by pressing and
holding the test/reset button
for one second.
• Keep the detector free from
dust by gently vacuuming with
a soft brush.
• Change the batteries in your
detector at least every twelve
months to ensure correct
operation. The unit continually
checks the settings of its
sensor and circuitry. If any of
these settings are found to be
incorrect or if the batteries
have become low, the detector
will emit a single audible chirp
once per minute for up to 30
days. This does not mean that
the detector has detected
carbon monoxide.
Please note: The sensor used in
the detector has a lifetime of
approximately ten years after
activation. After this ten year
period, the entire unit should be
replaced with a similar model.
