Propane Safety
Appliances in your trailer are fueled with propane. Propane is heavier than air which will allow it to pool in some areas
creating an explosion risk. It is mandatory to follow all manufacturer guidelines in the use of propane appliances.
The propane system and appliances installed on the trailer are designed and
installed to comply with all relevant statutes and laws. Modification or misuse
may result in explosion resulting in death or serious injury. Follow manufacturer
guidelines at all times.
IF YOU SMELL PROPANE
1.
Extinguish any open flames and all smoking materials
2.
Shut off propane supply at the container(s) or propane supply connection.
3.
DO NOT touch electrical switches
4.
Open doors and other ventilating openings
5.
Leave the area until odor clears.
6.
Have the propane system checked and leakage source corrected before
using again.
Ignition of flammable vapors could lead to a fire or explosion resulting in death
or serious injury.
DANGER
Gas Certification
Your Caravan has been supplied gas tested and certified. Any additions or alterations to the gas system must be
performed by an authorized person and will require re-certification and testing. Also note any alterations may
affect your warranty on both the system and appliances.
General Safety
•
Your Caravan may have a number of gas safety labels affixed throughout containing important
information. All instructions are to be followed and the labels shall not be removed for any reason.
•
Make sure to close appliance valves before opening the cylinder valves.
•
Where readily accessible, check connections at the appliances, regulator, hoses, and cylinders
periodically for leaks with soapy water (or an equivalent) – this should be done every time a cylinder
is changed or at least annually.
CAUTION – the ammonia present in some soaps and detergents can react with brass fittings and cause such
fittings to crack after a short period of time. Therefore, caution should be exercised when using soap solutions
on brass fittings and all connections should be rinsed thoroughly with fresh water as soon as possible after the
application of the soap solution.
•
NEVER use a match or flame when checking for leaks.
•
NEVER use cooking appliances for comfort heating.
•
In the event of a fire, immediately close cylinder valve if safe to do so.
•
Appliances must not be altered without the authorization of the manufacturer.
•
In the event of an accidental gas leak, close cylinder valve and ventilate the area using a safe method
until the air is clear.
•
Flexible hoses are used between the Propane Gas Cylinder and regulator as well as between your
slide-out kitchen cooker (if fitted) and the gas bayonet. These flexible hoses are easily accessible and
shall be inspected regularly.
