Fuel Safety
Fuel Selection
Some generators are 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 fill cap by slowly turning it counterclockwise, waiting for any “hiss” noise
to stop, and then unscrew the cap all the way. To close the fuel fill cap, securely turn the cap
clockwise until you hear clicking sounds.
Filling the fuel tank
Automotive fuels can cause serious injury or death if misused or mishandled.
If you have further questions, consult your dealer or 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 as 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 im
-
mediately.
Never restart an engine or re-light any pilot lights while raw fuel is pres-
ent.
FAILURE TO COMPLY COULD RESULT IN FIRE, DEATH OR SERI-
OUS INJURY.
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.
All pilot lights, appliances and their igniters (see operating instructions)
should be turned off before refueling of motor fuel tanks.
These can cause ignition of flammable vapors, which can lead to a fire or
explosion.
FAILURE TO COMPLY COULD RESULT IN FIRE, DEATH OR SERI-
OUS INJURY.
