System
Your campervan is fitted with a gas compartment that can hold two bottles, only one
of which is connected at a time. The gas bottles should be placed in the compartment
provided for this purpose. The system operates only on propane, in all countries.
The operating pressure is 30 mbar.
For all connections of additional elements to your system, please consult your dealer
(see manual delivered with the campervan).
• Do not change the type of regulator
• Do not use appliances under a different operating pressure
• Before the expiry date indicated, replace the flexible supply hoses (tubes) with an
approved model, identical to the original.
•
Do not store equipment in the gas compartment.
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 shuts off the gas inlet. This
system 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
Permanent upper and lower ventilation is essential in order to ensure constant air renewal.
• Lower ventilation is generally provided through a vent at the bottom of the furniture or in the floor.
• Upper ventilation is provided through the roof windows, which have a permanent vent system.
These systems enable natural air circulation, including inside the bench seats.
The vents should never be blocked, even during the winter.
They must be kept clean and dust free. Do not store equipment in the heating compartment.
2.4 Safety
Provide an approved dry powder fire extinguisher with a capacity of at least 1 kg and familiarise yourself with the instructions.
