Section 7: Fuel & Propane System
85
Exhaust Gas Fumes
To avoid breathing exhaust gases, follow these precautions:
Always shut OFF the tow vehicle engine, generator engine (if applicable), etc., while
refueling.
Do not run the tow vehicle engine, generator engine (if applicable), etc., in confined
areas, such as a closed garage, any longer than needed to move your RV in or out of
the area.
Windows should be closed while driving or running the generator (if so equipped) to
avoid drawing dangerous exhaust gases into the RV.
If you suspect that exhaust fumes are entering the RV have the cause determined and
corrected as soon as possible.
The best protection against carbon monoxide entry into the RV is a properly maintained
ventilation system and an active carbon monoxide detector. To allow for proper operation
of the RV ventilation system, keep the ventilation inlet grill(s) clear of snow, leaves or other
obstructions at all times.
See the
Occupant Safety
section of this manual for additional information on carbon
monoxide safety.
Avoid inhaling exhaust gases as they contain carbon monoxide, which is
a potentially toxic gas that is colorless and odorless.
If you are in a recreation vehicle with either a nearby tow vehicle engine
running or the generator (if so equipped) running there is a potential for
exhaust fumes to filter back into the recreation vehicle
Propane Gas System
Propane or LP
(liquefied petroleum
)
gas is an efficient form of energy when proper handling
and safety precautions are observed. The propane system in yourfurnishes the fuel for
cooking, heating, hot water and can be an alternative energy source for refrigeration
Propane is heavier than air; and tends to flow to lower areas and will sometimes pocket in
these low areas, such as the floor. Your recreation vehicle is equipped with a propane alarm
(refer to the
Safety Precaution section,
Combinatio (CO)/Propane Alarm.)
The propane fuel system is comprised of numerous components such as the propane
container, hoses, the propane gas regulator, piping and copper tubing to each appliance.
Although your recreation vehicle has been carefully tested at the factory, and by your selling
dealer for leakage, travel vibrations can loosen fittings. Have the propane system checked at
all connections soon after the purchase of your recreation vehicle, and after the initial filling
of the propane tanks.
Propane cylinders should not be placed or stored inside RV. LP-gas cylinders
are equipped with safety devices that relieve pressure by discharging gas into
the atmosphere.
