REFUELING THE VEHICLE CHASSIS
Removing the Fuel Cap
The fuel tank filler cap is located behind a flap
adjacent to the driver’s door. Slowly remove the fuel
cap to release any built-up pressure. If you hear a
hissing sound, wait for hissing to stop before fully
removing the cap.
Filling the Tank
Do NOT overfill the fuel tank. Fill only until the
automatic shut-off valve on the fuel nozzle stops the
flow of fuel. This allows for expansion of the fuel and
vapor as the fuel warms and expands in the fuel tank.
Fuel Tank Capacity
Refer to the chassis manual in the Motorhome
Information Bag for details.
Fuel Types
Refer to the chassis manual in the Motorhome
Information Bag for details.
IMPORTANT
Motorhomes for the U.S. market are designed with
a fuel line intake for the auxiliary generator that will
drain 75% of the fuel from the tank. Do not run the
generator so long it uses all the fuel.
CAUTION
Modern fuel systems may allow pressure to build
up in the fuel tank during hot weather.
Under certain conditions, small amounts of fuel
may spray from the fuel filler tube when the fuel
cap is removed quickly, creating a potential
hazard.
WARNING
Make sure all LP gas tanks and appliances are shut
off before refueling.
Do not smoke when refueling.
Keep flames, sparks, and smoking materials away
from fuel or flammable fumes.
NOTICE
Auxiliary generators may draw fuel from the
main engine fuel tank.
The auxiliary generator fuel pick-up tube is
shorter than the engine fuel pick-up tube to
prevent the generator from inadvertently
draining the vehicle’s fuel tank.
Using incorrect fuel can be hazardous and can
cause significant and costly damage.
Overfilling the fuel tank may cause damage to
the fuel evaporative emission system.
