equipment is not in use, close all gas isolator taps and the main isolator
tap on the gas bottle.

No appliance operated by a naked flame (e.g. heater or refrigerator) may
be in operation when filling the tank, on ferries or in the garage. Danger
of explosion!

Do not use appliances operated with a naked flame in closed spaces
(e.g. garages). Danger of poisoning and suffocation!

Have the gas system checked by an authorised specialist workshop
according to the national regulations before commissioning. This also
applies for not registered vehicles. For modifications to the gas system
have the gas system immediately checked by an authorised specialist
workshop.

The gas pressure regulator and exhaust gas pipes must also be
inspected. The gas pressure regulator has to be replaced after 10 years
at the latest. The vehicle owner is responsible for seeing that this is car-
ried out.

In case of a defect of the gas system (gas odour, high gas consumption)
there is danger of explosion! Close regulator tap on the gas bottle imme-
diately. Open doors and windows and ventilate well.

If there are several gas devices, each gas device must have its own gas
isolator tap. If individual gas devices are not in use, close the respective
gas isolator tap.

Ignition safety valves must close within 1 minute after the gas flame has
extinguished. A clicking sound is audible. Check function from time to
time.

The built-in gas devices are exclusively meant for use with propane or
butane gas or a mixture of both. The gas pressure regulator as well as
all built-in gas devices are designed for a gas pressure of 30 mbar.
