PROPANE WARNING LABELS
The following labels regarding propane safety are
strategically placed inside of your coach.
If the detector alarms while in use, or if you smell propane
or suspect a gas leak (the odor smells similar to rotten
eggs or sulfur), follow the warning labels in your coach.
IF YOU SUSPECT A GAS LEAK
Read and understand the following precautions,
as well as any warning labels in your coach, to
protect yourself and others from the risks of
operating an LP system.
IMPORTANT
!
Never test for a leak by lighting a match or having an
open flame where you suspect leaking gas.
DANGER
!
It is recommended to have the propane system inspected
by an authorized service technician at least once a year
and after every extended trip. This system is tested by
both the manufacturer and the dealer; however, leaks
may be caused by travel vibrations.
Propane System Maintenance
Never spray any type of aerosol or cleaner directly
onto or into the propane detector. Spraying any type
of material into the opening on any of these detectors
can render them useless, and would not be covered by
the manufacturer’s warranty.
Refer to Newgle for more information about your coach’s
propane (LP) gas detector.
IMPORTANT
!
Do not use coach with a non-operational LP detector.
WARNING
!
WARNING
!
Shut o
ff
the propane gas valve when refueling to
avoid potential danger from pilot lights igniting fuel
fumes. Some appliances, such as the refrigerator,
water heater, and furnace, have DSI (direct spark
ignition) boards, so it is important that you turn the
appliances o
ff
when the propane gas is turned o
ff
.
The ignition in the appliances may continue to spark
even if there is no propane gas available.
WARNING
!
Propane gas is extremely flammable. Propane gas
containers, gasoline, or other flammable liquids shall
not be placed or stored inside the vehicle. Propane
cylinders are equipped with safety devices that
relieve excessive pressure by discharging propane
to the atmosphere. Failure to comply could result in
serious injury or death.
WARNING
!
Inspect the propane fill valve for foreign materials
before refueling. Introducing foreign material into the
fill valve may cause leaking or overfilling, resulting in
uncontrolled gas flow and a fire or explosion.
FILLING THE PROPANE SYSTEM
Tank filling should only be performed by trained
professionals. Prior to filling the propane tank, turn o
ff
all flame or spark-producing appliances, extinguish any
smoking items, and turn o
ff
the coach engine.
WARNING
!
While refilling the fuel or propane tank, the engine
must be o
ff
, all pilot lights must be extinguished,
and appliances turned o
ff
. The vehicle should be as
level as possible, and the service valve should be
turned o
ff
. Smoking is also prohibited at this time.
All protective covers and caps must be replaced after
filling the propane system. Once the valve is closed,
securely latch the propane door.
