consult your RV dealer, the OEM or Jayco
Customer Service.
The main shut off valve must be kept closed
at all times unless you are using the propane
system or filling the propane cylinder. When
the cylinder is disconnected from the hose,
install the valve cover that is attached so the
container. This is required by the National Fire
Protection Agency (NFPA), other applicable
local codes and for your own safety.
Close the propane cylinder main shut off
valve by hand tightening only. Use of tools
creates a potential to over tighten the valve
(damaging the interior seals on the cylinder
valve seat). If this type of damage occurs, the
cylinder will not close properly and create a
false sense of security.

Servicing or filling
Before entering a propane or fuel service
station make sure all pilot lights are
extinguished. Shut off gas to all appliances
by closing the propane gas main shut off
valve. Always shut OFF any engine before
refueling. Do not smoke and do not
operate other ignition
refueling.
Have the RV checked for leaks at the
connections on the propane system soon
after the purchase and the initial filling of each
propane cylinder. When you have a new
cylinder filled for the first time, make sure your
propane supplier purges your new tank of
trapped air. Otherwise, an improper mixture of
gas and air will make it impossible to light
your propane appliances.
When a propane tank is low, occasionally
there may be a concentration of an onion or
garlic-like odor, which can be mistaken for a
propane leak. After the propane tank has
been refueled, the odor will usually disappear.
If not, turn OFF each propane cylinder shut off
valve and have the propane system inspected
by your dealer or a qualified propane service
representative.
No one should be inside and only the qualified
propane service technician should be near the
RV while the propane tank is being filled. The
new propane tank must be carefully purged
for best performance and must NEVER BE
OVERFILLED. The following label should be
kept permanently affixed to your RV.
