PINECREST OWNER’S MANUAL
• To make sure that all of the fuel burning instruments are performing accurately and there are no traces of
CO, you will need to have a professional come give a surveilance check.
• If the professional finds something that is suspicious, you will need to get it repaced/serviced urgently.
5. Contact the manufacturer or do research in the manufacturer owner’s manual if there is any information you
wish to gain about CO safety or the materials. Make sure that you are taking note of any materials that were not
checked.
6. If you own a motor vehicle or anything with a generator engine, could be why there is CO damage.
Batteries
When you are wanting to silence the CO aarm, you should NEVER remove the batteries. If the battery is sounding to
be repaced, that should be completed as soon as possible. When the battery is low, you will hear a chirping noise
notifying you that you need to repace them. If the battery is paced in wrong, then it cannot fully complete its task.
Testing the CO aarm
If you run a test on the CO aarm and it does not sound, it should be repaced immediately.
Maintenance
There are small holes that are located at the front of the aarm that needs to be cleaned of any particles that could
disrupt its function. The aarm requires no maintenance except making sure that it is cleaned with a cloth frequently.
• DO NOT use any cleaning products that contain bleach or any strong chemical.
OCCUPANT SAFETY
PROPANE GAS ALARM
When the aarm is activated, there will be a green LED light. Air is lighter than propane gas; therefore, during a pro-
pane leak it will gather in low areas. Because of this, the aarm on the inside of your fifth wheel is paced close to the
floor. Your fifth wheel has a propane gas system so there is a system that detects leaks for your safety.
• Those with hearing disabilities might want to consider purchasing a device that show visual warnings.
Most cleaning supplies, aerosol cans, deodorant, perfume, cologne, alcohol, gasoline, etc. contains combustible
fumes that might activate the aarm if it is in too close of proximities.
Even after your RV has been built, if it is in extreme hot temperatures the chemicals that are made during the con-
struction process, and even trigger vapors in the glue that might set off the propane aarm.
