The detector is equipped with a self-cleaning CO sensor and requires a ten
minute initial warm-up period to clean the sensor element and achieve stabilization.
During the warm-up period, the green power light will flash ON and OFF. The
green power light should be lit when the power is on. If the light is not lit, turn off
the power and check all wire connections. If the power is on and the connections
are correct, but the indicator still does not light, the detector should be returned for
service. Do not attempt to fix the detector.
The indicator light displays a specific color to monitor along with a matching
sound pattern:
Indicator Lights and Sound Patterns:
• ON or normal condition is indicated by green. The CO detector has
power and is sensing air for the presence of CO gas. The alarm horn
will not sound.
• Flashing red indicates low CO alarm condition along with four beeps
then OFF for 5 seconds. The alarm horn will sound and can be reset
by the TEST/RESET button. The CO detector has detected the
presence of 70 ppm.
• Steady red indicates a CO ALARM condition. The detector has
sensed the presence of levels over 100 ppm of Carbon Monoxide. The
alarm horn will sound continuously until the RESET switch is reset.
• Alternating red and green indicates a malfunction alarm.
When the alarm sounds have the detector and the motorhome checked by an
authorized service technician as soon as possible. Never disconnect a CO detector
to silence an annoying alarm. Evacuate the motorhome immediately when the red
light is lit and the alarm sounds. Do a head count to check that all persons are
accounted for. Call the nearest fire department and ask them to determine the
source of the Carbon Monoxide. Do not re-enter the motorhome until it has been
aired out and the problem corrected.
Potential Sources of CO when operating the motorhome:
• Engine Exhaust • Portable Grills
• Portable Space Heaters • Camp Fires
• Gas Stoves and Ovens • Generator Exhaust
• Defective Engine Exhaust System • Portable Generators
• Other Motorhomes
