Section 2
Identification and Safety
Safety Regulations & LP Gas (Cont’d)
DO NOT STORE LP GAS CONTAINERS, GASOLINE, OR OTHER
FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS INSIDE THE VEHICLE AS A FIRE OR EXPLOSION MAY
RESULT.
A WARNING LABEL HAS BEEN LOCATED NEAR THE LP GAS
CONTAINER. This label reads: DO NOT FILL CONTAINER(S) TO MORE THAN 80
PERCENT CAPACITY.
Over-filling the LP gas container can result in uncontrolled gas flow which can cause fire or explosion. A
properly filled container will contain approximately 80 percent of its volume as liquid LP gas. An 80
percent automatic shut-off valve has been installed on the LP gas tank which will automatically prevent
further filling when the gas volume has reached 80 percent of tank capacity.
The following label has been placed in the vehicle near the range area:
IF YOU SMELL GAS
:
• Extinguish any open flames, pilot lights and all smoking materials.
•
DO NOT
touch electrical switches.
• Shut off the gas supply at the tank valve(s) or gas supply connection.
• Open doors and other ventilating openings.
•
DO NOT USE THE RANGE HOOD
.
• Leave the area until the odor clears.
• Have the system checked and leakage source corrected before using again.
LP GAS REGULATORS MUST ALWAYS BE INSTALLED WITH THE
DIAPHRAGM VENT FACING DOWNWARD. REGULATORS THAT ARE NOT IN
COMPARTMENTS HAVE BEEN EQUIPPED WITH A PROTECTIVE COVER. BE SURE
THAT THE REGULATOR VENT FACES DOWNWARD AND THE COVER IS KEPT IN
PLACE TO MINIMIZE VENT BLOCKAGE WHICH COULD RESULT IN EXCESSIVE GAS
PRESSURE CAUSING FIRE OR EXPLOSION.
