LP Detector
All recreation vehicles with an LP gas system
require a LP gas leak detection device (Fig. 21)
for safety protection. A converter or auxiliary
battery is required to supply 12-volt DC energy to
operate the leak detector. Carefully read,
understand and follow the information supplied
by the LP detector manufacturer which is
supplied with your motorhome. Consult with
your independent, authorized dealer and/or visit the manufacturer’s website at
www.safe-t-alert.com if you have any questions on the operation or maintenance of this
detector.
I
WARNING: For your safety, make sure that the LP gas detector is
properly maintained and functioning. The detector requires 12-volt DC
energy through the converter or from an auxiliary battery to operate.
Without a proper energy source the detector will not work and you will
not be warned of leaking gas.
