Rules for the gas safety shut off valves
• When driving, close all of the valves on gas devices.
• The photograph on the left shows the shutoff valves when they
are open. To close the valves, they must be turned by 90°.
Opened gas stop valves are set in the same direction as the gas line.
• No inflammable devices may be in operation when filling the pe
-
trol tank of the tow vehicle, on ferries and in the garage.
Should you suspect a leak in the gas system, immedia
-
tely close the shutoff valves in the caravan and the gas
bottle valves in the gas box.
Over the course of time, vibrations can cause small leaks
to occur. If you suspect leaks, have your dealer or another
expert inspect for leaks.
Such an inspection may never be conducted in the
presence of open flames.
Never smoke or light open fires when changing gas
bottles. After changing bottles, check whether gas is es
-
caping from the any gas fittings by spraying these with
a leak indicator. Gas-proof surfaces should be clean and
intact.
When the pig tail is connected to the liquid gas bottle,
ensure that it is free of kinks and not subject to stress.
The regulator knob must be positioned above the valve
on the bottle.
