NOTE
Do not allow the tank to run completely empty as this
may allow air to enter the gas lines. In this event the air
must be bled from the lines. To belled the lines, start the
generator first, which may take several attempts before LP
gas reaches the carburetor. Follow the generator starting
procedures in SECTION 9 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS) of this
manual. Once the generator starts and runs normally, shut it
off, and then run the hot water until the Suburban hot water
heater ignites.
note
WARNING
The electric gas shut-off solenoid closes automatically when
12-volt DC power is not present. The solenoid will reopen
when power is restored. When filling the tank, activate the
solenoid shutoff switch at the remote filling / accessory
connection compartment until the tank has been filled.
Then turn the switch off.
WARNING
Moisture in the LPG tank will cause a malfunction of the
regulator in controlling proper pressure. This may cause the
water heater or the generator to malfunction. If you suspect
this has happened, take your coach to a filling station and
have the tank purged and refilled with high quality LPG.
DANGER
Do not use open flame to search for potential leaks in the
LPG system. An explosion or fire could occur, resulting in
serious physical injuries and / or death. LPG has a distinct
trace odor. If you smell gas, and the generator or other
appliances fail to stay on, or any other abnormal situation
occurs, use the remote solenoid switch to shut off the tank
valve and contact your authorized dealership of a qualified
LPG service center. Do not attempt to operate the generator
or water heater with a defective LPG system.
