JAYCO TOWABLE SECTION 2 – OCCUPANT SAFETY
2-3
There are instances when the smoke detector alarm may not be heard. Though the alarm
horn in this detector meets or exceeds current UL standards, it may not be heard for many
reasons. These include (but not limited to): a closed or partially closed door, the alarm
may be drowned out by other noise like the TV, stereo, traffic, weather, air conditioner or
other appliances.
Operation
The smoke alarm is operational once the battery is correctly installed. The LED light will
indicate the battery is functioning properly. When the production of combustion is sensed,
the smoke detector sounds a loud alarm that continues until the air is cleared. The LED
light will also give a visual indication of a sounding alarm.
How to test
Stand at arm's length from the smoke alarm when testing as the alarm horn may be harmful
to your hearing. The alarm horn is loud to alert you to an emergency. The test button will
accurately test all functions. Never use an open flame from a match or lighter to test this
smoke alarm.
A warning label is located near the smoke alarm Please do not remove the following label
from your recreation vehicle:
Maintenance
Gently vacuum off any dust on the cover of the smoke alarm with your vacuum's soft
brush attachment. Test the smoke alarm once you have vacuumed. Never use water,
cleaners or solvents to clean the smoke alarm as they may damage the smoke alarm. Do
not paint the smoke detector. For information on how to maintain your smoke detector,
refer to the smoke detector user’s guide.
Battery
The smoke alarm will not function if the battery is missing, disconnected, dead, the wrong
type of battery is used or the battery is not installed correctly. The smoke detector requires
one standard 9V battery.
When the battery becomes weak, the smoke alarm will "beep" about once a minute (the
low battery warning). This low battery warning should last for 30 days, but you should
replace the battery immediately to continue your protection.
