The gas installation in your motorhome has
been installed according to the German
technical rules for liquid gas devices and
fireplaces in vehicles (DVGW- sheet G 607).
The test certificate for gas certifies proper
installation of the gas installation. This test
certificate for gas is deemed invalid if the gas
installation is modified subsequent to delivery
of your motorhome. The inspection label is
attached beside the rear number plate.
According to law, the gas installation has to
be inspected every two years by an authorized
specialist shop. Proof of this inspection has
to be presented for vehicle inspection according
to road traffic licensing regulations. Always
adhere to the operating instructions of the
installed heater. The operating instructions of
the installed heater have to remain with the
motorhome at all times.
The gas installation is intended for operation
with butane, propane or a mixture of the two.
Propane can be used at temperatures above
42°C. Butane can be used at temperatures
above 0°C.
Gas cylinder box
You will find the position of the relevant gas
cylinder box on the equipment pages from
1-1. The gas cylinder box accommodates two
11 kg gas cylinders. Both gas cylinders must
always be secured by a fastening strap to
prevent twisting. The pressure controller must
be connected to the cylinder (left-hand thread)
in such a way that there is no tension or buckling
in the connection hose. Where energy is to be
supplied in the form of gas, open the cylinder.
If the gas in one cylinder has been used up,
connect the other cylinder manually.
SecuMotion gas pressure regulator (special
equipment)
The SecuMotion gas pressure regulator
regulates and monitors the consumption of
liquid gas and provides steady gas pressure.
Note
If the SecuMotion gas pressure regulator is
installed, then the liquid gas heater can be
used during travel within Europe as stipulated
by EU Directive 2001/56/EG. More detailed
information pertaining to the gas pressure
regulator can be found in the manufacturer's
documentation.
The installation is started up by means of the
rocker switch on the control element. The
installation is ready for operation when the
switch is in the "down" position. On the control
element two lamps indicate whether the
corresponding gas cylinders contain any gas.
The lamp goes out when the gas cylinder is
empty. When the switch is in the "up" position,
the installation goes into winter mode: the
gas pressure controllers are heated in addition.
When the switch is in the central position the
installation is switched off, but it is still under
pressure. The gas supply is isolated mechanically
only by means of the shut-off valves of the
cylinders.
Note
The gas cylinders are not supplied with the
vehicle!
The commercially available red gas cylinders
can only be filled by your local gas dealer. The
commercially available grey gas cylinders can
be filled or exchanged throughout Europe.
Sometimes a gas test certificate, attached to
the vehicle, is demanded. You can present
this to your gas supplier.
