SECTION 1

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

1-6

1. Set fan to medium or high speed and vent

control to air.

2. On vehicles equipped with air conditioning,

set fan to medium or high speed and set con-

trol to obtain maximum vent air.

Rear windows should be closed while driving

to avoid drawing dangerous exhaust gases into

the vehicle.

CARBON MONOXIDE

ALARM

Your coach is equipped with a carbon monox-

ide (CO) alarm, located on the ceiling in the bed-

room area.

The CO alarm is powered by a 9-volt battery

and contains a sensor that is designed to detect

toxic carbon monoxide gas fumes resulting from

incomplete combustion of fuel. It will detect CO

gas from any combustion source such as the fur-

nace, gas range/oven, water heater, refrigerator,

chassis engine, and electric generator engine.

· Patented biomimetic sensor mimics the

human response to Carbon Monoxide.

· Test/Reset provides for one time alarm

silence and multiple warning silence. Also

tests alarm circuitry, microprocessor, battery

and horn.

· Red light flashes once every thirty seconds in

normal operation.

· Continuous yellow light with a beep every

three seconds indicates an unhealthy CO

level.

· Continuous red light and pulsating alarm sig-

nal a dangerous CO condition.

· Battery operation provides protection 100%

of the time. Low battery signal alerts consum-

er of need to replace battery.

· 85 decibel alarm assures waking during

sleeping hours.

Monthly Testing

Press the TEST button on the face of the alarm

periodically (at least monthly) to check the func-

tion of the alarm and condition of the battery. If

the alarm begins to beep every few seconds, the

battery may be weak and need replacement.

(Press the TEST button to be sure before replac-

ing the battery. If the alarm sounds, the battery

may still be okay. If the alarm still beeps every

few seconds, check the smoke detector also. The

“low battery” warning beep is similar on many

alarm devices, so the origin of this electronic

sound can be deceiving.)

Further Information

Please read the information provided by the

manufacturer, which is included in your Owner’s

InfoCase. It includes information on precautions,

operational testing, and battery/sensor replace-

ment.
