Gas box Lid
The gas box is permanently vented (
see also
Chapter
9 Gas
). Since the gas box has not been constructed
to be waterproof, moisture may permeate the gas box.
For this reason as well, only gas bottles and the in-
tended objects placed there by the factory (winding
handle, chocks, entry step, etc.) may be carried in the
gas box. Food, electrical devices, etc., must be stored
in the trailer or the car.
Never use force to shut the gas box lid. The spring
force of the hinges shuts the lid of the gas box lid; after
a few seconds, it will fall into the lock by itself.
