Gas cylinder compartment
The gas cylinder compartment is located on the driver side of the vehicle and can be accessed from the
outside. The gas regulator (1), which is connected to the connecting hose (2), is located inside the gas
cylinder compartment. The two gas cylinders (5 kg each) are secured against sliding with the permanently
installed strap attachments (3). The two openings (4) in the floor are absolutely necessary for ventilating
the gas cylinder compartment and must therefore not be covered or sealed.
WARNING
Risk of fire/explosion!
● Gas cylinders may be transported in the vehicle only in the gas cylinder
compartment, in an upright position. Any other location in the vehicle is
not permissible.
● The gas cylinder compartment must not be used as storage compartment.
