Gas & Appliance Safety
Gas Certification
Your Camper has been supplied gas tested and certified. Any additions or alterations to the gas system must be
performed by an authorised person and will require re-certification and testing. Also note any alterations may affect
your warranty on both the system and appliances.
General Safety
• Your Camper may have a number of gas safety labels affixed throughout containing important information. All
instructions are to be followed and the labels shall not be removed for any reason.
• Make sure to close appliance valves before opening the cylinder valves.
• Where readily accessible, check connections at the appliances, regulator, hoses and cylinders periodically for leaks
with soapy water (or an equivalent) – this should be done every time a cylinder is changed or at least annually.
CAUTION – the ammonia present in some soaps and detergents can react with brass fittings and cause such fittings to
crack after a short period of time. Therefore, caution should be exercised when using soap solutions on brass fittings and
all connections should be rinsed thoroughly with fresh water as soon as possible after the application of the soap solution.
• Never use a match or flame when checking leaks.
• Never use cooking appliances for comfort heating.
• In the event of a fire, immediately close cylinder valve if safe to do so.
• Appliances must not be altered without the authorisation of the manufacturer.
• In the event of an accidental gas leak, close cylinder valve and ventilate the area using a safe method until the
air is clear.
• Flexible hoses are used between the LP Gas Cylinder and regulator as well as between your slide-out kitchen
cooker (if fitted) and the gas bayonet. These flexible hoses are easily accessible and shall be inspected regularly
by a competent person.
Gas Cylinder Safety
• LP Gas cylinders have a 10-year lifespan between inspection and re-certification. Always use gas cylinders that
are within their compliance date.
• For drawbar mounted cylinders (if applicable), orient the cylinder relief valves of both cylinders discharge away from
both the trailer and towing vehicle as shown.
• For gas cylinders stored in a dedicated LP Gas Locker ensure the locker is kept closed at all times unless changing or
operating the cylinders.
• Close cylinder valves when appliances are not in use or while refuelling is in progress.operating the cylinders.
• Ensure cylinder valves are closed to prevent the unintended release of gas from a cylinder.
