Gas Appliance Safety
•
Gas appliances are certified and have a flame safeguard feature to stop gas flow in the event of the
flame going out. Never interfere with this function or replace appliances with a non-certified type.
•
Slide-out kitchens with cookers should only be operated with an annex fully erected. Failing to do
so may affect the safety and operation of the gas appliance.
•
Slide-out kitchens with cookers must only be used with a flexible connecting hose that is
disconnected from the gas bayonet fitting when in its stored position. Under no circumstances
permanently connect this appliance.
•
Only approved and suitable gas appliances with flame safeguard systems shall be connected to the
gas bayonet (if fitted).

Ventilation and Flues
• Check all permanent ventilators, flues (if applicable) and vents to ensure they are clear, open and
unrestricted.
•
Any supplied or 3rd party vent cover(s) (e.g. low level door vent) should only be used for covering the
vents during storage between use with all LP gas system valves closed. All vents (e.g. low level door vent)
shall be uncovered at all times the Caravan is in use.
Isolating Appliances
Internal gas appliances have an isolation valve fitted in the gas line. During travel these should be turned to the off
position where practical and always turn the valve on the active gas bottle off when towing or refuelling.
