a cloth. Ensure that the holes on the front of the alarm are not blocked with dirt and
dust. D0 NOT USE CLEANING AGENTS, BLEACH OR POLISH: The unit requires 3
x 1.5V alkaline batteries. The following are suitable replacements. Gold Peak 24A

USING THE ALARM
To activate the alarm, insert the 3 batteries which are included, fit the battery

Press the test/reset button and check that the red light flashes and the horn sounds.
The alarm is now operating and ready for use.
SMOKE DETECTOR
A smoke detector is provided with your trailer. A manual pertaining to the detector is
included in the paper work given to you at the dealership. Please read and follow all
care, maintenance, and safety information contained in this manual.
The smoke alarm will “beep” once a minute for at least 30 days when the battery is
weak. The battery must immediately be replaced with a fresh one.
WARNING: Alarm battery is shipped deactivated. Check your alarm for
proper battery installation. To activate battery, new Airstream owner must install
included battery to proper orientation.
LP GAS DETECTOR
In the kitchen area of your unit, approximately six inches above the floor, is the LP
gas detector. LP gas is a mixture of gases produced and sold commercially as a fuel
for heating and cooking appliances. LP gas is highly flammable and, as a result, can
be explosive if ignited under certain circumstances. LP gas is heavier than air and,
if confined in a closed space, will accumulate close to the floor. When the LP gas
concentration in your unit exceeds 2000 PPM the detector will provide a visual and
audible alarm by sounding a buzzer and flashing the red LED two times per second.
WARNING: Activation of this detector indicates the presence of LP
gas, which can cause an explosion and/or fire. This normally indicates a leak in
the LP gas installation or a LP gas appliance. Extinguish all open flames, open
your windows and door and evacuate the unit immediately. Do not activate
any electrical switch. Turn off the LP at your gas bottle(s). DO NOT RE-ENTER
YOUR UNIT UNTIL A QUALIFIED REPAIR TECHNICIAN HAS CORRECTED THE
PROBLEM.
OPERATION
Your LP gas detector is wired directly to your vehicle battery and incorporates a 1-amp
in-line fuse. When the device is operating normally the green LED will be lit.
WARNING: It is not recommended that the detector be disconnected
from the battery during periods of storage. There is a small heater on the sensor
of the device, which “burns” away impurities in the air during periods of normal
use. During periods when power is interrupted, impurities can build up on the
sensor. When power is returned to the detector the detector alarm may activate
