Woodall's Campground and Trailer Guide and other similar publications
list refueling stations. Many travel parks sell LP-Gas. Shut off the pilot lights,
appliances and igniters before filling the LP-Gas tank to prevent a fire or
explosion. Have a trained service person fill the LP-Gas tank.
The LP-Gas tank fill is located in the LP-Gas tank access outside
compartment. Caution the service technician, if the tank is new and being
filled for the first time, to purge any air from the tank before filling. When the
tank is filled to the proper level there is space available for the conversion of
liquid into gas. If a tank is over-filled it may vent pressure. When this happens
a strong rotten egg odor near the tank and/or hear a hissing noise may be
detected.
WARNING: Turn off all pilot lights and appliances while filling the
LP-Gas tank to prevent a fire or explosion.
NOTE: Actual tank capacity is 80
