COMBINATION CARBON MONOXIDE AND PROPANE
LEAK DETECTOR
A permanently installed detector is located near
the floor in the forward portion of the main
camper floor area. The unit contains an alarm
that will sound, alerting you to the presence of
propane or carbon monoxide.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF CARBON MONOXIDE
POISONING OR PROPANE GAS EXPLOSION, TEST
THIS ALARM’S OPERATION AFTER THE CAMPER
HAS BEEN IN STORAGE, BEFORE EACH TRIP AND
AT LEAST ONCE PER WEEK DURING USE.
WARNING
DO NOT USE A CIGARETTE LIGHTER TO TEST THE
CO / PROPANE GAS ALARM. Butane gas may
damage the sensors.
DO NOT attempt to test the alarm by any other means than
by using the TEST/RESET button. DO NOT attempt to
produce CO to the alarm. The TEST/RESET button tests
all functions of the alarm and is the ONLY safe way to be
sure the alarm is working properly.
The alarm may be tested at any time. 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 alarm beeps 4 times. The Gas LED should also blink
Red.
OPERATION
When the unit is first powered up, the CO sensor requires
a ten (10) minute initial warm-up period to clean the sensor
element and achieve stabilization. The GREEN LED
indicator will flash on and off during the 10 minute warm-
up period. This unit cannot go into a CO alarm during the
warm-up period. After the warm-up period, the GREEN
power ON indicator should glow continuously. If the ON
indicator light does not light see the section, “Trouble-
Shooting Guide” in the User’s Manual for this alarm
provided in the Owner’s Information Package.
This alarm will operate normally down to 7v DC. It will
not work without power.
VISUAL AND AUDIBLE ALARM
SIGNALS
The CO / Propane Gas Alarm is designed to be easy to
operate. The alarm has two indicator lights that display a
specific color for each monitored condition. There also is
a matching sound pattern for alarm conditions.
CO ALARM
The Red CO LED will flash and the alarm will
sound 4 “BEEPS” then silent for 5 seconds.
These signals indicate that the CO level over 70
ppm.
IMMEDIATE ACTION IS REQUIRED. This
cycle will continue until the TEST/Mute button
on the front of the alarm is pressed. Ventilate the
Camper. The RED light will stay ON until the
CO has cleared, or the alarm will reactivate in
approximately 6 minutes if the CO is still
present.
DO NOT RE-ENTER THE TRAILER. This
alarm will return to normal operation after the
RV has been properly ventilated.
PROCEDURES TO TAKE DURING A CO
ALARM
Actuation of this device indicates the presence of
carbon monoxide (CO) or propane gases, which
can kill you. If signal sounds (4beeps and
flashing or solid red light), immediately turn off
all combustion sources and ventilate the
premises. Evacuate the premises immediately.
Check that all persons are accounted for. Do not
re-enter the camper until it has been aired out and
the problem corrected. Have the problem
corrected before restarting appliances.
WARNING Carbon monoxide cannot be seen
or smelled and can kill you.
