AFETY
For your protection and others, it is critical to understand the danger associated
with fuel. Take time to become educated about the property of fuel and use it
safely
.
Fuel selection
Remember the generator is also fueled by the same system used to fuel the
chassis engine. Check the generator manufacturer and the chassis manufacturer
information to help determine the type of fuel best suited for this dual application.
Fuel filler cap
Remove the fuel filler cap by slowly turning it counterclockwise and waiting for any
"hiss" noise to stop. Then unscrew the cap all the way. To close the fuel filler cap,
securely turn the cap clockwise until you hear clicking sounds.
Filling the fuel tank
If you spill fuel on the motor home, clean it up immediately. Fuel can dull or
soften paint and damage other surfaces. Use care when fueling your motor home.
The following labels (if so equipped) should be kept permanently affixed to your
motor home:
DANGER
Automotive fuels can cause serious injury or death if misused or mishandled.
If you have further questions, consult your dealer or Jayco Customer Service
for assistance.
□ Always shut OFF the vehicle engine while refueling.
□ Do not bring or store fuel or other flammable liquids inside the motor
home because a fire or explosion may result.
□ Before refueling, extinguish all smoking materials and any open flames.
□ Before refueling, always turn OFF all spark producing appliances (i.e.,
water heaters, furnaces, etc.).
□ Do not overfill the fuel tank(s). The pressure in an overfilled fuel tank may
cause leakage and lead to fuel spray and/or fire.
□ Fuel spills represent a serious fire hazard, and should be cleaned up
immediately.
□ Never restart an engine or re-light any pilot lights while raw fuel is
present.
FAILURE TO COMPLY COULD RESULT IN FIRE, DEATH OR SERIOUS
INJURY.
WARNING
Do not replace the fuel fill cap with one of a different type. Only use a cap
specified for your motor home. Use of a substitute cap may create excessive
fuel system pressure, resulting in fuel station damage and improper operation
in a collision.
