Only use special gas pressure regulators with a safety valve designed
for vehicle use. Other gas pressure regulators are not permitted and
cannot meet the demanding requirements.
Use the gas pressure regulator defroster if the temperature falls below
5 °C.
Use only 11 kg or 5 kg gas bottles. Camping gas bottles with built-in
check valve (blue bottle with max. 2.5 or 3 kg content) are can be
used in exceptional cases with a safety valve.
Use the shortest possible tube lengths (150 cm max.) for external gas
bottles.
Never block the floor ventilation openings below the gas bottles.
With some models, the gas bottle compartment is located right next to
the conversion door. With these models, only open the gas bottle com-
partment when the conversion door is closed. Danger from damages.
The screw connections on the gas bottles generally have a left-hand
thread.
For gas-operated units the gas pressure must be reduced to 30 mbar.
Connect gas pressure regulator complete with safety valve directly to
bottle valve.
The gas pressure regulator reduces the gas pressure in the gas bottle
down to the operating pressure of the gas devices.
For filling and connecting the gas bottles in Europe the accessories
shops have corresponding Euro filling sets and Euro bottle sets.
Information available at the dealers or service centre.
