SECTION 5
LP GAS SYSTEM
NOTE: The LP tank is equipped with an auto-
matic 80% stop-fill device.
* LP Gas tank capacity shown is the usable
“full” LP gas capacity, which is 80% of the tank
manufacturer’s listed water capacity (w.c. shown
in parenthesis). An LP tank must have at least
20% of tank volume free to allow for expansion
and proper vaporization of the liquid fuel. The
tank is also equipped with mandatory safety
shut-off equipment that prevents filling above
this level.
AIR IN THE LP GAS TANK
If your LP gas appliances do not stay lit or re-
quire frequent adjustment, even though you
know the LP tank contains sufficient fuel, the
problem may be air in the LP gas tank. Air in the
tank mixes with the LP gas vapors causing them
to burn poorly. This condition could linger for
weeks if the air is not purged from the tank. Most
LP gas dealers have equipment for purging air
from LP gas tanks and will purge before refilling
the tank.
TRAVEL WITH LP GAS
It is illegal for vehicles equipped with LP
tanks to travel on certain roadways or through
certain tunnels in the U.S. To avoid inconve-
nience, check state regulations concerning flam-
mable gas transportation.
LP Gas Tank Capacity:
.....................................*31 gal. (39 gal. w.c.)
Make sure the filling attendant uses
the 80% overflow valve when filling
the tank. A tank should never be filled
above 80% level to allow for vapor-
ization and liquid expansion.
Do not place LP gas containers inside
the vehicle. LP gas containers are
equipped with safety devices which
relieve excessive pressure by dis-
charging gas to the atmosphere.
Do not place LP gas containers, gaso-
line, or other flammable liquids
inside the vehicle. Fire or explosion
may result.
WARNING
Do not alter or remove LP tank gauge
at any time.
DO NOT FILL CONTAINER TO
MORE THAN 80 PERCENT OF
CAPACITY. Make sure the motor
home is level when filling. It is possi-
ble to accidentally overfill the tank if
the vehicle is unlevel, with the fill
valve on the uphill side. Overfilling
the LP gas tank can result in uncon-
trolled gas flow, which can cause fire
or explosion. A properly filled con-
tainer will contain approximately 80
percent of its volume as liquid LP gas.
All pilot lights must be extinguished
and supply valve closed before refill-
ing LP gas tanks or vehicle fuel tanks.
Do not smoke or expose an open
flame
while near an LP refueling area.
LP gas is heavier-than-air and ex-
tremely flammable.
Never use an open flame
to test for
LP gas leaks.
Replace all protective covers and caps
on LP system before filling.
Never
fill the LP tank with engine or
generator running.
