HOWTO: Propane System
Propane tanks must not be placed or stored inside your vehicle. Propane tanks are equipped with safety devices
which relieve excessive pressure by discharging gas to the atmosphere. The Roadtrek's propane tank is mounted outside
the vehicle and will vent propane where it can dissipate; any tank inside the vehicle will vent into the passenger
compartment, creating an explosive propane-air mixture inside the enclosed space, which also contains many potential
sources of ignition.
To reduce the danger of fire or explosion do not store gasoline or other flammable liquids inside your vehicle. In a
moving vehicle, containers get tipped over or jostled and leak, and flammable vapors will create an explosive air-vapor
mixture inside your passenger compartment, which also contains many potential sources of ignition.
Purchase propane from a reputable propane facility. Contaminated propane is a common cause of system failure.
