The carbon monoxide/propane (CO/LP) combination
alarm installed is intended for use in ordinary indoor
locations of recreation vehicles.
Actuation of this alarm indicates the presence of carbon
monoxide, which is a toxic gas that is colorless and
odorless.
Do not disconnect the combination carbon monoxide/
propane alarm from its power source.
Individuals with medical problems may consider using
warning devices that provide audible and visual signals
for carbon monoxide concentrations under 30 PPM.
This alarm will only indicate the presence of carbon
monoxide gas at the sensor. Carbon monoxide gas may
be present in other areas.
WARNING
THE CO/LP COMBINATION DETECTOR OPERATES ON
12-volt HOUSE POWER; IT DOES NOT CONTAIN AN
INTERNAL BACK-UP BATTERY. IT WILL BE DISABLED
WHEN AUXILIARY BATTERIES ARE DISCONNECTED,
OR SHORE POWER IS REMOVED, OR IF THE AUXILIARY
BATTERY VOLTAGE DROPS BELOW THE OPERATING
THRESHOLD VOLTAGE OF THE DETECTOR!
Test the combination carbon monoxide/propane alarm
after the motorhome has been in storage, before each
trip, and at least once per week during motorhome use.
Failure to do so can result in an undetected faulty CO/
LP alarm, which could lead to death or severe injury.
WARNING
WARNING
Warning labels are axed throughout the motorhome to
provide required information on propane safety. Read and
follow the instructions listed, and exercise proper precautions
when using propane and propane appliances.
Additional warning labels are located in the cooking area as a
reminder that an adequate supply of fresh air for combustion
is needed. Unlike a residential home, the oxygen supply in an
RV is limited due to its small size. Proper ventilation must be
provided when using gas cooking appliances to help avoid
the dangers of low oxygen levels and potential asphyxiation.
Become thoroughly familiar with the propane system and
its safe operation. Refer to the Propane System section of
this manual and always follow the safety and operational
instructions provided by the manufacturers of the propane
appliances and devices installed in the motorhome.

monoxide/propane alarm that is listed for use in recreation
vehicles. e combination carbon monoxide/propane alarm
will only provide its intended protection if it is maintained
in operational condition.
e combination carbon monoxide/propane alarm is wired
directly to the motorhome’s 12-volt DC electrical system, with
continuous power being supplied by the auxiliary battery.
ere is not a back-up battery in the combination carbon
monoxide/propane alarm. If the auxiliary battery cable is
