LP-GAS SYSTEMS — 7
Shut off LP-Gas appliances.
Manually turn off the primary shut-off
valve at the LP-Gas tank.
DO NOT operate any electric switch. This
can produce a spark and ignite the gas.
Open windows and doors.
Evacuate the motorhome. Stay clear of
the surrounding area.
Keep all ignition sources out of the area.
Contact a quali
fi ed service technician to
fi nd the source and repair the gas leak.
LP-GAS TANK
Measurement
Two methods can be used
to monitor the amount of fuel
in the LP-Gas tank: monitor
panels in the hallway and
service bay and a small, non-
adjustable gauge located on the
curbside of the LP-Gas tank.

Tank Capacity
NOTE:
This chart reflects product specifications
available at the time of printing.
NOTE:
LP-Gas tank capacity is estimated
based on calculations provided by the
tank manufacturer and represents
approximate capacity. The actual “usable
capacity” may be greater or less than
the estimated capacity. Actual full liquid
capacity is 80% of full tank capacity.
Tank Filling
Woodall’s Campground and Trailer Guide, and
other similar publications, list refueling stations.
Many travel parks sell LP-Gas. Before
fi lling
the LP-Gas tank, shut off pilot lights, appliances
and igniters to prevent a
fi re or explosion. Have
a trained service person fi ll the LP-Gas tank.
WARNING:
Turn off all pilot lights and LP-Gas
operated appliances before entering
a refueling station. Most LP-Gas
appliances used in motorhomes are
vented to the outside. Fuel vapors can
enter those vents when a motorhome
is parked close to a gasoline pump,
resulting in an explosion or fire.
WARNING:
Extinguish all sources of heat, sparks,
flames and smoking materials within a
50 ' radius during the fueling process.
The LP-Gas tank fi ll is located in the
roadside compartment. The tank must be fi lled
to the proper level to allow for expansion. An
over
fi lled tank may cause the safety valve to
release pressure emitting a strong rotten egg
odor near the tank and/or a hissing noise may
be detected.
WARNING:
Small amounts of LP-Gas can escape
and evaporate during the fueling
process. Protect bare skin. Instant
freezing will occur if exposed to LP-Gas.
LP-Gas exists in both liquid and vapor form
within the tank. A full tank is approximately
80% liquid. The pressure inside the tank varies
with the temperature of the liquid. All tanks are
required to have a safety pressure relief device
to release excess pressure. When the tank is
full, the gauge on the tank will only read ¾.
The monitors are adjusted to indicate full at
this point.
NOTE:
If the tank is new and being filled
for the first time, inform the service
technician to purge any air from the
tank prior to filling.
LP-Gas Tank Capacity
*25 Gallons
*Actual fi lled LP-Gas capacity is 80% of listing due to safety
shut-off required on tank.
