Power for this detector comes from the trailer’s main battery. If this
battery becomes discharged, the detector will emit a beeping sound to
alert you to the lack of power, for your protection. Take the necessary
action to recharge your battery as quickly as possible. You must:
- Connect your trailer to a 120-volt outlet
(this may take more than 24 hours);
- Connect the seven-conductor cable to your car and run the
engine (this may take two to three hours).
If nothing happens, despite your attempts to recharge the battery, check
the fuses in the converter or on the trailer’s battery. If the problem
persists, consult a recreational vehicle specialist.
PROPANE GAS SYSTEM
This safety device is powered by 12-volt DC current and is permanently mounted near the
floor, because the gases detected are heavier than air and thus concentrate at floor level.
The detector continues to operate as long as electrical power is available. If the power
supply is interrupted, the detector will not function.
The propane gas leak detector is an autotestcircuit in constant operation when supplied
with 12-volt current. If the circuit ceases to operate, a failure alarm sounds and the
operation indicator lamp goes out.
For more information, see the “Precautions against carbon monoxide”
section in the “Safety” chapter.
