WARNING
5. Do not restrict access to LP tanks. In an emergency,
the tank service valve must be easily identified and
accessible. The tank compartment door must always be
unlocked, and the LP label should be visible.
6. Do not carry or store filled or empty LP gas contain-
ers. Including accessories such as gas barbecues, in
your motor home. LP gas containers are equipped with
a safety device that relieves excessive pressure by
discharging gas to the atmosphere. Leaks can occur at
valves and fittings. Always store LP tanks outside with
the valves closed and plugged.
7. Do not use any LP gas tank other than the one
furnished with your motor home without being sure that
all connecting components are compatible.
S. Turn off LP gas main valve before filling LP gas tank
or entering an LP gas bulk plant or motor fuel service
station. Turn off all pilot lights and appliances individu-
ally before refueling of motor fuel tanks and/or LP gas
containers.
When not individually turned off, automatic ignition
appliances may continue to spark when LP gas is
turned off at the container.
9. Do not fill LP gas containers to more than SO%
capacity. Overfilling can result in uncontrolled gas flow
which can cause fire and explosion, a properly filled
container holds about SO% of its volume as liquid.
10. LP gas regulators must always be installed with the
diaphragm vent facing downward. Make sure that the
regulator vent faces downward and that the cover is kept
in place to minimize vent leakage which could result in
excessive gas pressure causing fire or explosion.
