Installation
Your motorhome is fitted with a cupboard which may contain
two bottles connected to the network. The gas bottles
should be placed in the external compartment provided for
this purpose. The installation operates only on propane, in all
countries.
The pressure for use is 30 mbar.
For all connections of additional elements on your
installation, consult your dealer (see manual delivered with
the motorhome).
• Do not change the type of regulator.
• Do not use the apparatus under a different service pressure
• Replace the flexible supply hoses (tubes) before the date
indicated on them with an approved model, identical to the
original.
The bottles must be securely attached using the straps
provided in the cupboard.
Only qualified fitters are authorised
to work on gas-powered appliances.
Gas system allowing heating while driving.
The pressure regulator has a built-in impact detector. In case of an accident, with a strong deceleration, a mechanical
protection system cuts off the gas inlets. It complies with European regulations and allows you to use the gas heater while
driving.
Apart from the heating, no other appliances are designed to be used when driving.
2.3.4 Ventilation, heating system
The existence of permanent upper and lower ventilation is essential in order to ensure constant air renewal.
• The lower ventilation is generally provided through a vent at the bottom of the furniture or in the floor.
• The main lower ventilation is located in the electrical compartment.
• The upper ventilation is provided through the roof windows, which are permanently aired
in compliance with supplier
recommendations.
These devices enable natural air circulation, including inside the bench seats.
The ventilation devices should never
be blocked, even during the winter.
They must be kept clean and dust-free.
The “Twiny” gas cylinder may not function properly in cold weather
when gas consumption is at a peak (heating system). Use a 13 kg bottle preferably,
with the “Twiny” in reserve.
Check and tighten the wires before
the first use, and at least once a year.
