SECTION 2 –
SAFETY AND PRECAUTIONS
2-2
• Never use an open flame to test for LP gas
leaks. Replace all protective covers and caps
on LP system after filling. Make sure valve is
closed and the door is latched securely.
• Never connect natural gas to the LP gas
system.
• When lighting range burners, do not turn
burner controls to “On” and allow gas to
escape before lighting match.
• Portable fuel-burning equipment, including
wood and charcoal grills and stoves, shall not
be used inside the recreational vehicle. The
use of this equipment inside the recreational
vehicle may cause fires or asphyxiation.
• LP gas regulators must always be installed
with the diaphragm vent facing downward.
Regulators are equipped with a protective
cover. Make sure that the regulator vent faces
downward and that the cover is kept in place
to minimize vent blockage, which could result
in excessive gas pressure causing fire or
explosion.
• The following warning label is located in the
cooking area to remind you to provide an
adequate supply of fresh air for combustion.
Unlike large homes, the oxygen supply inside
a recreational vehicle is limited due to its size. To
avoid danger of asphyxiation, provide proper
ventilation when using the gas range top or gas
oven. It is especially important that the gas oven
and range top not be used for comfort heating.
Danger of asphyxiation is greater when these
appliances are used for long periods of time.
LP GAS LEAKS
The following procedures are located in the
vehicle near the range area. If you smell gas
within the vehicle, quickly and carefully perform
the procedures listed.
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.
• Leave the area until odor clears.
• Have the gas system checked and leakage
source corrected before using again.
PROPANE GAS LEAK
DETECTOR
Your coach is equipped with one of the
propane gas leak detectors shown below. The
leak detector sounds an alarm if an unsafe
amount of propane gas is present inside the
coach.

safe operation. Before operation:
3. Open overhead vent or turn on
exhaust fan and;
