2.7 ALARMS
1. LP Gas Alarm:
a. The alarm will sound whenever there is an
unsafe amount of gas in the trailer.
b. Follow instructions on safety sign and air
out trailer to silence alarm.
c. Have a qualified service personnel find the
leak and correct the problem before using
unit again.
2. Smoke Alarm :
a. The alarm will sound whenever there is an
unsafe amount of smoke in the trailer.
Always use exhaust fan over the stove
when cooking.
b. Open doors, vents and windows to air out
trailer and silence alarm. Correct and
eliminate smoke source.
c. Check alarm on a regular basis. Check
when removing from storage, before trips
and weekly thereafter. Depress center
button to test alarm electronics. Test
alarm sensor by blowing smoke (from safe,
fire-free source) past sensor. If alarm
does not sound when testing, determine
source of problem and correct or replace
alarm.
d. Do not remove battery to silence alarm.
When alarm “beeps” every minute, battery
is weak and must be replaced. Do not
allow battery to go dead. Be sure to
replace with recommended battery. Test
after battery is replaced.
e. Clean and vacuum opening on smoke
alarm once a month.
f. Do not try to repair alarm. Replace it.
g. Smoke alarms are not perfect and do not
respond in all situations. The best safe-
guard is fire prevention.
3. Recurring alarm(s) indicate the slow accumula-
tion of LP gas, carbon monoxide, or smoke.
Have an authorized service center check
system and identify source. Correct problem
before resuming use of unit.
4. Refer to alarm manual(s) for more detailed
instructions.

2.8 ELECTRICAL
1. Use care when working around batteries. The
gases given off when charging are explosive.
Keep sparks and flames away from battery.
Wear protective clothing, eye protection and
remove jewellery. Do not short across termi-
nals.
2. Do not overload electrical circuits. Replace
circuit breakers and fuses with components of
similar capacity. Do not replace with larger
capacity components (breakers or fuses).
3. Use only 3 prong grounded power and appli-
ance cords.
4. Be sure trailer is well grounded to prevent
shocks or electrocution. Do not plug utility
power cord into an outlet that is not grounded.
Do not modify plug to fit a receptacle for which
it was not designed.
5. Use care when handling electrical appliances,
power cords and other components. Misuse or
abuse of electrical components can lead to
shocks or electrocution. Do not use electrical
components, cords or appliances with bare
feet, wet hands or while standing in water or
on wet ground.
