DANGER
A warning label is located near the propane con-
tainer. This label reads:
DANGER
Do not fill propane container(s) to more than 80
percent capacity.
A properly filled container will contain approxi-
mately 80 percent of its volume as liquid propane.
Overfilling the propane container can result in
uncontrolled propane flow, which can cause fire or
explosion and result in death or serious injury.
DANGER
IF YOU SMELL PROPANE:
1. Extinguish any open flames and all smoking
materials.
2. Shut off the propane supply at the container
valve(s) or propane supply connection.
3. Do not touch electrical switches.
4. Open doors and other ventilating openings.
5. Leave the area until the odor clears.
6. Have the propane system checked and leak-
age source corrected before using again.
Ignition of flammable vapors could lead to a
fire explosion and result in death or serious
injury.
Safety Devices

Always have a plan of escape. Update and practice
your escape plan every six months.
•
Have a meeting and discuss the plan, showing
everyone what to do including guests.
•
Do not waste time by picking up valuables or getting
dressed. Sometimes seconds count!
•
Vacuum any dust off the alarm weekly using the soft
brush attachment.

DO NOT spray cleaning agents or waxes directly
onto the detector as it may cause damage to the
sensor.
Smoke Detector

Smoke alarms may not have time to alarm before
the fire causes damage, injury or even death.

not fire.

The alarm will sound only if smoke reaches the

Check the battery/s at least once a week while the
RV is in use.
