Propane System

Propane System
The propane system includes the propane cylinders, propane
regulator, hoses, piping and copper tubing lines to each gas
appliance. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for each
propane appliance and all safety precautions.
Maintenance
Although both Grand Design RV and your selling dealer care-
fully test the propane system for leaks, travel vibrations can
loosen fittings. Have the RV’s propane system checked at all
connections soon after your purchase. System should also be
checked when the propane tanks are filled for the first time,
and again after 5,000 miles of travel.
Continue propane system checks by a qualified propane ser-
vice representative (
at least once per year
) as part of your
normal RV maintenance.
Propane Gas
In your RV, propane or LP (liquefied petroleum) is used by the
stove, furnace, hot water heater and refrigerator.
• An unpleasant “
sulfur or rotten egg
” odor is added to
propane as a warning agent. This smell will alert you
to an LP gas leak that can create a safety hazard.
When a propane cylinder is low, there may be a different odor
like onions or garlic
, that may be mistaken for a gas leak.
This odor will usually disappear when the cylinder is filled.
• If the odor persists
, turn OFF the valve(s) and have the
propane system inspected by your dealer or qualified
propane service technician.
IF YOU SMELL PROPANE
1. Extinguish any open flames, pilot lights and all smoking materials.
2. Do not touch electrical switches.
3. Shut off the propane supply at the container valve(s) or propane supply connection.
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.
