26. SMOKE ALARM
The smoke alarm is operational once the battery is
connected. When products of combustion are sensed,
the unit sounds an alarm until the air is cleared.
Features
• Battery Operated
• The Operating light (red LED) ashes every 40
seconds conrming that the unit is powered.
• Low Battery Warning: the unit will emit an audible
‘chirp’ once every 40 seconds for 7 days before the
battery needs to be replaced. (Failure to replace the
battery will result in insufcient power to alert you
in a real re situation.
• Sensitivity test button. This tests the sensitivity,
circuitry, battery and horn.
• Loud alarm.
Test smoke operation after vehicle has been in
storage, before each trip and at least once a
week during use.
Your alarm requires one 9 volt battery. Under normal
use, the battery should last one year.
Simple Maintenance
Clean your smoke alarm once every three months to help
keep the unit working correctly. Gently vacuum using a
soft brush attachment.
Problems are indicated by two events:
The alarm does not sound upon pressing the test button.
The operating light remains steadily on or off (i.e. does
not ash every 40 seconds, when the unit is not in
alarm.)
Try the following:
Inspect for obvious damage.
• Check that the unit contains recommended battery
type.
• Check that the battery cover has been removed.
• Check that the battery is properly connected
• Gently vacuum as recommended above Replace
battery.
If these procedures do not correct the problem, do NOT
attempt repairs; replace the smoke alarm.
27. CARBON MONOXIDE ALARM
A Fire Angel CO-9B battery operated alarm is tted near
to the ceiling in your caravan.
Features
• An advanced electrochemical sensor designed
to accurately measure low-high levels of carbon
monoxide (CO) providing an early warning of toxic
CO levels in your caravan.
• Detects carbon monoxide continuously.
• Resistant to false alarms caused by usual household
contaminants.
• Sounds a large 85 dB alarm (at 1 metre (3 feet)) to
alert you in case of an emergency.
• Test/Reset button
• Simple to mount , portable, ideal for travelling
• Conforms to the British Standards Institute (CSi)
Carbon Monoxide Standard BS EN 50291: 2001
• 7 Year Warranty.
• Test/Reset button feature
• Test the sounder, batteries and circuitry
• Allows you to test the sensor by introducing a source
of CO into the detector
• Silence the loud 85dB sounder during an alarm (only
possible when current CO level is less than 50ppm)
• Testing the sounder batteries and circuitry.
• Test the sounder, batteries and circuitry by pressing
and holding the Test/Reset button for 1 second to
conrm that the detector is operating properly.
The sounder should sound as soon as the button
is pressed, and the alarm LED will illuminate red,
indicating that the sounder is working and the
batteries are providing power to the unit. The test
for the sounder batteries and circuitry should be
performed weekly.
• Testing the Sensor
• All sensors testing should be carried out by
a responsible adult. This test should only be
performed once a month. Excessive testing will
cause the battery life to be shortened.
Note: CO testers may be used in order to avoid
having to burn cigarettes, incense sticks etc.
Please read all steps thoroughly before attempting to
test your alarm.
• If the alarm is wall mounted, remove by unhooking
the unit from the wall xing screws.
• Cover the sounder vents with one hand and hold the
Test/Reset button down with your thumb/ nger until
the power LED illuminates green and the sounder
sounds for a second time. (This should happen after
5 seconds.) Release the Test/Reset button and the
power LED will ash green once every second. This
indicates that the sampling rate of the detector has
increased and can be tested using a known source
of CO.
• Light an incense stick or a cigarette using a match
or a lighter. If using an incense stick, be sure
to blow the ame out so that the incense stick is
