WARNING: LP gas regulators must always be installed with the diaphragm vent
facing downward. Regulators that are not in a compartment have been equipped with
a protective cover. Ensure that the regulator vent faces downward and that the cover
is in place. This will minimize vent blockage that could result in excessive gas pressure
causing a fire or an explosion.
If traveling on wet roads and in freezing weather conditions, ensure that the LP gas regulator is
protected from road spray. If water enters the vent in the regulator, it may freeze the pressure
controlling diaphragm in the open position so that the container pressure is applied to the
appliances - a hazardous condition. Follow the instruction given by the manufacturer of the
regulator. The vent on the regulator is to be turned downward between the 5 and 7 o'clock position.
MAIN SUPPLY HOSE
The main supply hose will be attached from the regulator to the brass manifold fitting in the frame
of the motorhome. The swivel brass nut on the main hose is the final attachment.
OPERATION
After the camper is completely set up and you are prepared for camping enjoyment, follow these
steps for LP gas operation.
1. Close all burner valves, controls and pilot light valves.
2. Open main valve on LP container slowly to avoid fast rush of propane vapor through excess
flow valve causing "gas freeze." Should you experience a gas "freeze-up," close main valve
and wait 15 minutes before trying again.
3. Listen carefully as gas begins to flow. If hissing is heard for more than one or two seconds,
close valve and search for leak. (See instructions below.)
4. Light appliances as needed and directed in appliance chapter.
Keep container valve(s) closed when traveling. Some states prohibit traveling with LP container,
especially in underground tunnels on expressways.

WARNING: Portable fuel-burning equipment, including wood and charcoal grills
and stoves, must not be used inside the recreation vehicle. The use of this equipment
inside the recreation vehicle may cause fires or asphyxiation.
When an LP tank gets low, sometimes there is a concentration of garlic-like odor which may be
mistaken for a gas leak. After a change over to a full tank, the odor usually will disappear. If not,
turn off the LP and have the system checked by a qualified technician.
