Section 7: Fuel & Propane System
NOTE: If your motorhome is equipped with an Aqua Hot Heating system,
it may be fueled from either an LP tank or from the chassis diesel tank(s). If
fueled from the chassis diesel tank(s) the fuel consumption of this system
should be considered when planning your fuel supply to insure you will have
adequate fuel to run your system. The fuel feed for the Aqua Hot system
is positioned in the fuel tank so that when the fuel supply for the system is
exhausted, you will still have fuel remaining to operate your motorhome.
For additional information refer to the Aqua Hot owner’s manual.
Fuel Safety
Fuel selection
Some generators are fueled by the same system used to fuel the chassis engine. Check the
generator manufacturer and the chassis manufacturer information to help determine the type
of fuel best suited for this dual application.
Fuel filler cap
Automotive fuels can cause serious injury or death if misused or mishandled.
If you have further questions, consult your dealer or Customer Service for
assistance.
 Always shut OFF the vehicle engine while refueling.
 Do not bring or store fuel or other flammable liquids inside the mo -
torhome because a fire or explosion may result.
 Before refueling, extinguish all smoking materials and any open flames.
 Before refueling, always turn OFF all spark producing appliances (i.e.,
water heaters, furnaces, etc.).
 Do not overfill the fuel tank(s). The pressure in an overfilled fuel tank
may cause leakage and lead to fuel spray and/or fire.
 Fuel spills represent a serious fire hazard, and should be cleaned up im -
mediately.
 Never restart an engine or re-light any pilot lights while raw fuel is pres-
ent.
FAILURE TO COMPLY COULD RESULT IN FIRE, DEATH OR SERI-
OUS INJURY.
Do not replace the fuel fill cap with one of a different type. Only use a cap
specified for your motorhome. Use of a substitute cap may create excessive
fuel system pressure, resulting in fuel station damage and improper operation
in a collision.
