this happens the flame will burn cooler and
produce carbon-rich black smoke (indicating
incomplete burning). If left unattended for long
periods of time, the gas orifice will clog with
carbon and appliance components can be dam-
aged.
At higher altitude, less air is available to mix
with the gas at the burner. The fuel/air mixture
should be reduced to achieve the most efficient
burning. If the appliance does not have a
mixture valve, and you intend to use your RV
mostly at high altitudes, you will need to contact
an appliance service company or the local gas
company for service.

CAN CAUSE FIRES OR ASPHYXIATION.
Refrigerator. The refrigerator operates on LP gas or
120 volt AC electricity..
NOTE: The refrigerator must be fairly level to operate
properly. You can check this by placing a small
bubble-type level on the freezer shelf. You may need
to level the RV by jacking and using adequate block-
ing.
NOTE: Pacific Coachworks recommends that you do
not operate the refrigerator on LP gas while towing your
RV. Check with your dealer for regulations in your area.
Certain states prohibit the use of LP gas while towing.
For further information, refer to the refrigerator man-
ufacturer’s manual included in your owner information
package.
Water Heater: The water heater operates on LP gas
only or a combination of LP gas and 120 volt AC
electricity. If so equipped, 12 volt DC electricity is
required to operate the igniter. Check the name plate
located behind the water heater cover door on the out-
side of the RV to find out which model you have.
NOTE: Before operating the water heater, be sure it is
filled with water. You can check this by turning on the
hot water faucet at the sink. When water flows, the
water heater tank is full. Any remaining air in the tank
can be removed by briefly opening the tempera-
ture/pressure relief valve.
NOTE: You may notice water dripping occasionally
from the temperature/pressure relief valve. This con-
dition is normal and does not indicate a defective valve.
The water system is a closed system and during the
heating cycle the pressure build-up will cause the T-P
valve to open and water will drip from it. When the
pressure goes down the valve will close and the
dripping will stop.
NOTE: Hard water limits the life of a water heater by
depositing minerals on the heating element and water
heater container. Flush water heater out often to get rid
of mineral deposits. Also, when filling water tank, a
good filter will eliminate many of the minerals in water
from ever getting into the fresh water system.
For further information, refer to the water heater
manufacturer

s manual included in your owner
information package.
Furnace. The furnace is fueled by LP gas and the
blower and gas control valve are powered by 12 volt
DC electricity. Operation of the furnace is controlled
by a wall mounted thermostat.
NOTE: Proper operation depends upon the free flow
of air through the ducting, at the register outlets, and
at the return air grill. When storing personal items do
not crush ducting or block register outlets and returns.
For further information, refer to the furnace manufac-
turer's manual included in your owner information
package.
