Occupant Safety
Battery or converter power source
The propane gas alarm runs on a small amount of 12-volt DC
from the converter or auxiliary battery. This slight current draw
can still drain your auxiliary battery during an extended storage
period. The Low Voltage Warning will sound if the charge drops
below 8 volts. At lower voltage the alarm will no longer detect
gas or provide protection against dangerous levels of LP.
Indoor Air Quality
To maintain indoor air quality:
• Allow your RV proper ventilation.
• Keep the interior clean.
• Avoid harmful air pollutants.
Common air pollution sources include molds, pollen, pet
dander, cigarette smoke, household cleaners and carbon
monoxide from burning propane, charcoal or other fuels.
• Proper Ventilation carries air pollutants outside
your RV, and dilutes emissions from indoor sources
with fresh air from the outdoors.
• Poor Ventilation may increase pollutant levels inside
your RV. High temperature and humidity levels can also
increase the concentration of some indoor air pollutants.
• Those most at risk for REACTIONS to poor air quality
include: Children, The Elderly, and Persons with
Asthma, Allergies, Heart Disease, or Chronic Lung
Diseases such as Bronchitis and Emphysema.
To improve your air quality:
• BRE ATHE fresh air by opening windows.
• Spend as much time as you can OUTSIDE in fresh air.
• CONTROL MOLD :
◦ CLEAN the bathroom and kitchen often.
◦ FIX any water leaks.
◦ CLOSE windows and RUN your air conditioner (AC)
and/or your dehumidifier.
◦ CLEAN any mold you see or smell with a solution of
One Cup of BLEACH or less, to One Gallon of WATER.
◦ NEVER mix bleach with ammonia.
