If your alarm reactivates within a 24-hour period, repeat steps 1-4 and call a qualified appliance technician to investigate for sources of carbon monoxide from fuel-burning equipment and appliances, and inspect for proper operation of this equipment. Make sure that motor vehicle(s) are not, and have not been, operating in an attached garage or adjacent to the recreation vehicle. If problems are identified during this inspection, have the alarm serviced immediately? Note any combustion equipment not inspected by the technician and consult the manufacturer’s instructions or contact the manufacturer directly for more information about carbon monoxide safety and this alarm.

Maintenance
Vacuum the alarm cover at least once a year. Clean the cover by hand using a cloth dampened in clean water. Dry with a soft cloth. Do not spray the front panel of the alarm with cleaning agents or waxes. This action may damage the sensor causing an alarm or causing the alarm to malfunction. Do not paint the face of the alarm.
Testing the combination carbon monoxide/propane alarm
Warning
Test the alarm operation after the motorhome has been in storage, before each trip, and at least once per week during use. The SILENCE/TEST button tests both sensors and battery voltage. The SILENCE/TEST button is located on the front of the alarm. Press and hold the test button for 1 second. The alarm performs 2 cycles of the CO horn pattern (4 rapid chirps followed by a 4-second pause) followed by 2 cycles of the Propane horn pattern (constantly beeping). Green LED is OFF, Red LED is ON/flashing.
NOTE:
Pressing the test button does not check the sensor’s operation. Refer to the carbon monoxide/propane alarm manufacturers user’s manual provided with your recreation vehicle for additional information on testing the sensors. Repair or replace the combination carbon monoxide/propane alarm when the alarm no longer functions. As with any electronic product, it has a limited life. Alarms that do not work cannot protect you.
NOTE:
The carbon monoxide/propane alarm manufacturer strongly recommends the replacement of the detector five years after the date of purchase.
