It is important that everyone knows where
to find the manual shut off valve on the
propane cylinder, and understands how to
operate it.

Use an appropriate propane detector solution
or create a soapy water solution. The propane
detector solution can be purchased at your RV
dealership (if soapy water is used, make sure
that the soap used does not contain ammonia
or chlorine). Apply the propane detector
solution to all propane piping connections. If a
leak is present, the solution will bubble at the
connections.
If a leak is detected
1. Turn off all appliances that utilize propane.
2. Make sure that everyone is out of the RV,
including pets.
3. Turn off the propane at the cylinder(s).
4. Contact your RV dealer for a service
appointment and have the propane system
repaired before using it again.

Propane is stored in pressurized containers in
a liquid state. As the propane is released from
the container, it changes to vapor that is then
used for the operation of the appliances.
Propane will not run through the appliances in
the liquid state. The volume of liquid propane
increases approximately 1-½% for every 10°F
(5.5°C) it is warmed. Heat the propane 100°F
(55°C) and the container liquid volume will
increase 15%. That is why it is imperative to
leave sufficient space inside the cylinder to
allow for natural expansion of gas during
warmer weather. The following label should be
kept permanently affixed to your RV.
The main shut off valve must be kept closed at
all times unless you are using the propane
system or filling the propane cylinder. When
the cylinder is disconnected from the hose,
install the valve cover that is attached so the
container. This is required by the National Fire
Protection Agency (NFPA), other applicable
local codes and for your own safety.
Close the propane cylinder main shut off valve
by hand tightening only. Use of tools creates a
potential to over tighten the valve (damaging
the interior seals on the cylinder valve seat). If
this type of damage occurs, the cylinder will
not close properly and create a false sense of
security.

SECTION 4
PROPANE SYSTEM
WARNING
DOT propane cylinders must be
transported and stored in an upright
position so the pressure relief device will
function properly. Laying a DOT propane
cylinder on its side may potentially create a
very dangerous situation.
WARNING
IT IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED THAT
YOU HAVE A PROFESSIONAL TEST
THE RV PROPANE SYSTEM FOR LEAKS
ONE TIME EACH YEAR AS PART OF
NORMAL MAINTENANCE.
THIS PROPANE PIPING SYSTEM IS
DESIGNED FOR USE WITH
PROPANE ONLY. DO NOT CONNECT
NATURAL GAS TO THIS SYSTEM.
Securely cap inlet when not connected
for use. After turning on propane, except
after normal cylinder replacement, test
propane piping and connections to
appliance for leakage with soapy water
or bubble solution. Do not use products
that contain ammonia or chlorine.
JA-176
DO NOT FILL PROPANE CONTAINER(S)
TO MORE THAN 80 PERCENT OF
CAPACITY.
FAILURE TO COMPLY COULD RESULT
IN A FIRE OR PERSONAL INJURY.
WARNING
CAUTION
