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 the burner valves, controls and pilot light valves.
2. Open the main valve on the LP gas container slowly to avoid a fast rush through the
excess flow valve causing a “gas freeze.”
3. Listen carefully as gas begins to flow. If “hissing” is heard for more than one or two
seconds, close the valve and search for the leak.
4. Light the appliances as needed and directed in the appliance chapter and supplemen-
tal manuals.

WARNING:
Portable fuel-burning equipment, including wood and
charcoal grills and stoves, should not be used inside the recreation
vehicle. The use of this equipment inside the recreation vehicle may cause fires
or asphyxiation.
This warning label has been located in the cooking area to remind you to provide an
adequate amount of fresh air for combustion.
1
WARNING:
IT IS NOT SAFE TO USE THE COOKING APPLIANCE
FOR COMFORT HEATING.
1.
Cooking appliances need fresh air for safe operation. Before operation:
a. Open overhead vent or turn on exhaust fan.
b. Open window.
2. Unlike your homes, the amount of oxygen supply is limited due to the
size of the recreation vehicle, and proper ventilation when using the
cooking appliance(s) will avoid danger of asphyxiation. It is especially
important that cooking appliances
not be used for comfort heating
, as the
danger of asphyxiation is greater when the appliance is used for long
periods of time.
FAILURE TO COMPLY COULD RESULT IN EXPLOSION RESULTING
IN DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY.
Checking For Leaks
Please refer to Chapter 1, “Safety in Using LP Gas.”

DANGER
IF YOU SMELL GAS
1. Extinguish any open flames, pilot lights, and all smoking materials.
2. Do not touch electrical switches.
3. Shut off the gas supply at the tank valve(s) or gas supply connection.
4. Open doors and other ventilating openings.
5. Leave area until odor clears.
6. Have the gas system checked and leakage source corrected before using again.
7. Make sure that everyone is out of the RV.

Fig. 4-9
Regulator
The regulator (Fig. 4-9) is the heart of your LP
gas system, with internal moving parts. Its func-
tion is to reduce the high and varied pressure
from the LP gas container to a safe and consistent
low operating pressure. The inlet is the first stage
and reduces the container pressure to 10-13
pounds. The second stage will reduce the 10-13
pound pressure to an operating pressure of 11"
W.C. (water column) or 6.35 oz. of outlet pres-
sure to the travel trailer system. The second stage
is adjustable and will need to be adjusted for
precise operation. We suggest this normal main-
tenance procedure be performed once per year.
DO NOT make any attempt to adjust the regula-
tor. Have only an authorized and competent
technician make any adjustments.
1
WARNING:
LP gas regulators must always be installed with the
diaphragm vent facing downward. Regulators that are not in compart-
ment have been equipped with a protective cover. Make sure that the regula-
tor 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.
Be sure your 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. Be sure to
carefully read the instructions given by the manufacturer of the regulator.
Automatic Changeover Regulator
(STANDARD FOR KIWI TOO, OPTION FOR KIWI)
The automatic changeover regulator allows both gas bottles to be turned on simulta-
neously. The arrow on the regulator handle indicates which bottle is in service. When the
indicated bottle in service becomes empty, changeover is automatically accomplished to
commence drawing fuel from the other bottle. At this point, the plastic window will
display a red signal or flag to indicate the condition. The lever should then be flipped
over to indicate service on the other bottle. The first bottle which was depleted can then
be turned off, uncoupled and taken to be refilled without disturbing the RV gas supply.
After refilling, it can be removed and again turned to the “ON” position. When the other
bottle is depleted, the LP gas supply will again be automatically changed back to the first
bottle.
1
WARNING:
All pilot lights and appliances must be turned OFF during
refueling of motor fuel tanks and/or LP gas containers.
