SECTION 6
JAYCO TOWABLE PROPANE SYSTEM
Be sure to inspect the hose before each
season and when having the tank refilled.
Look for signs of deterioration such as cracks
or loss of flexibility. When replacing the hose
or other propane components, make sure to
always replace them with components of the
same type and rating (check with your
dealer).
Fittings are used to connect the various
system components to each other. The P.O.L.
fitting at the end of the propane supply hose is
made of brass so that pipe sealants are not
necessary to prevent leaking. It also has a
left-handed thread, which means that it is
turned clockwise to remove, and counter-
clockwise to tighten. The P.O.L. fitting has
been designed to help restrict the flow of LP
gas in the event of a regulator failure or hose
malfunction.

After the RV is completely set up and you are
prepared for camping enjoyment, use the
following steps for propane operation:
1. Close ALL burner valves, controls and
pilot light valves.
2. Open the main valve in the propane
container slowly to avoid a fast rush of
propane vapor through the excess flow
valve causing propane “freeze-up.” Should
you experience propane “freeze-up,” close
the main valve and wait 15 minutes before
trying again.
3. Listen carefully as propane begins to flow.
If a hissing noise is heard for more than
one or two seconds, close the main valve
and contact your dealer to have the
propane system tested.
4. Light the appliances as needed and
directed in the appropriate appliance
manufacturer’s owner manual located in
the Warranty Packet.
Make sure that you read and fully understand
ALL safety requirements for handling and
operation of the propane system. The
Warranty Packet contains operator’s manuals
for the various appliances hooked to your
propane system. The propane system
provides added benefits to your camping
enjoyment; however, it must be handled with
care. If you have any questions or concerns,
consult with your dealer and/or the specific
manufacturer.
If you have double cylinders on your RV, use
only one at a time. Otherwise, the propane
supply will be drawn equally from both
cylinders until the supply has been totally
exhausted. Using one cylinder until it is
empty, then using the second cylinder will
allow you to fill the empty cylinder at your
convenience without running totally out of
propane.

Unlike homes, the amount of oxygen supply is
limited due to the size of the recreation
vehicle. Proper ventilation when using the
cooking appliance(s) will help you avoid the
danger of asphyxiation.
It is especially
important that cooking appliances not be
used
for comfort heating, as the danger of
asphyxiation is greater when the appliance
is
used for long periods of time.
FAILURE
TO
COMPLY MAY RESULT IN DEATH OR
SERIOUS INJURY.
Do not use portable fuel-burning
equipment, including wood and charcoal
grills and stoves, inside the RV. The use of
these items inside a RV may cause fires or
asphyxiation (inability to breathe).
