Statistics show that most fire casualties are not caused by direct
flame, but by less visible smoke (products of combustion). The smoke
detector responds to both visible and invisible products of combustion.
The smoke detector will automatically return from alarm to normal state
when the reason for activation, the presence of smoke, is completely
removed. Common cause of fires are smoking in bed, leaving children
unattended or using flammable cleaning fluids. Please be safety con-
scious and avoid unnecessary risk.
WARNING: There is no way to insure there will be no
injury or loss of life in a fire; however, the smoke
detector is intended to help reduce the risk of tragedy.
Additional smoke detectors may help reduce the risk.
Proper use and care of the smoke detector could save
lives.
Once a 9 volt DC battery is correctly connected, the smoke alarm is operat-
ing. The LED will flash every minute showing the battery is supplying power. A
load alarm will sound when a production of combustion is sensed.
NOTE: The unit will not operate without a battery. A bat-
tery flag will pop up preventing the unit from being installed
to the mounting bracket without a battery. Most carbon zinc
batteries average service life is one year. Most alkaline bat-
teries service life is one to two years.
To test the electronics of the alarm press the test button on the cover of the
smoke alarm for a few seconds. The smoke alarm will sound by making a con-
tinuous loud beep. To complete the test sequence release the button and the
alarm should stop.
NOTE: Test the smoke alarm operation after the
motorhome has been in storage, before each trip and at least
once a week during use.
Vacuum the slots in the cover and sides with a soft brush attachment every
month. The smoke alarm should be cleaned every six months to help keep the
unit working efficiently.
The battery should power the smoke alarm for at least one year under nor-
mal use. When the battery reaches the end of its normal life a low battery warn-
ing (intermittent beeping) will indicate the need for battery replacement. It may
be practical to replace the battery during the time changes in the spring and fall.
