3 – Notes on safety
Any gas-powered appliances must only be used while the vehicle is parked (on a parking space).
Always close the gas supply from the cylinder before travelling.
Never block the safety ventilation, not even partially.
Additional ventilation is required when preparing food. Openings and skylights near the cooking hob
must therefore be opened.
Never use a gas-powered appliance while the vehicle is parked inside a closed room (garage, tunnel,
etc.) or in an explosive atmosphere (e.g. petrol station). Keep the gas supply from the cylinder closed
during this time.
Do not use gas-powered appliances for purposes other than the ones they are intended for
(e.g.: using the cooking hob for interior heating). Do not use appliances, which are connected inside,
outside the vehicle.
The gas cylinders must be installed in the dedicated box. Never tilt a gas cylinder that is currently in
use.
Do not subject the hose and its connections on the cylinder to tensile stress.
The gas cylinders must be used with butane gas only.
Never use an open flame to check for the presence of gas. If a gas leak is suspected, close the gas
supply and contact your nearest authorised dealer.
Never smoke while changing a gas cylinder or when working in the vicinity of the gas box.
When changing the gas cylinder check the expiration date of the main stopcock.
Use a fire extinguisher to put out small fires (not included in the scope of delivery).
Leave the vehicle and the surrounding area and make an emergency call.
It is absolutely necessary to carry out an annual inspection of the entire system by an expert
specialist.
For this purpose please consult your authorised Karmann-Mobil dealer.
For safety reasons and to maintain warranty, changes to the gas system must only be made by
authorised dealers with the written consent of Karmann-Mobil.
