Safe operating procedures
for your gas system
PLEASE refer to the information located
on the rear of your OPUS
®
gas certificate
.
STEP 1.
The Air OPUS
®
is fitted with a mount
for two 9kg gas bottles. The bottle is to be
connected to gas regulator and must be
turned off when the gas is not in use.
STEP 2.
To install a gas cylinder, ensure the gas cylinder is placed correctly with J-clamp,
continue with attaching the gas hose to bottle ensuring that’s its been tightened so
no leaks occur. Eg. like getting a gas bottle and attaching it to your BBQ at home. First
connect the gas hose onto the cylinder. It is advisable to keep an adjustable spanner
with jaw opening up to 30mm for this use.
STEP 3.
Once kitchen has been pulled out full you can fit the gas bayonet hose to the
outlet. This is a simple push and twist to install.
STEP 4.
The gas tap/valve on the top of the gas bottle can now be opened.
STEP 5.
Turn on the yellow gas tap (situated underneath the rear of the OPUS behind
each of the gas outlets unit) by turning 90° as detailed in the set-up section if you
haven’t already done so.
STEP 6.
Lift up lid of the gas hob, turn on one of the burners (push in, hold the knob
down until flame is lit and stays on. Keep pressing the button until the gas has had time
to fill up the system and the burner will ignite
.
STEP 7.
Ensure that the gas bottle valve is closed prior to packing up the Air OPUS
®
for transit or storage. The Air OPUS
®
has two gas outlet bayonet fittings. At each point
there is an on/off valve located right behind the gas outlet. Each valve must be turned
off when not in use.
For use when Annex is set up make sure both ventilation points are clear and not
covered, one on the drop skirt and the other on the roof of the rear pod.
These are to be turned off when the point is not in use. The outlet on the driver’s side
is a gas BBQ (not supplied) while the outlet on the passenger side is to supply the
4 burner cook top in the slide-out kitchen. This hose is fitted to the cook top and is
located under the sink. Both of these points should have the protective plugs inserted
when not in use.
When the gas is not in use the shut off valve and gas bottle should be in the off/closed
position.
Gas fumes inside a camper trailer tent could result in unconsciousness, brain
damage or even death. Follow safe operating procedures with gas at all times:
• Ensure good ventilation throughout, at ALL times
• Do not use any other gas systems than those provided with
the Air OPUS
®
camper inside the tent
• Always turn off the shut off valve IMMEDIATELY after use
