Always shut OFF the engine while refueling propane tank. Do not smoke and do not
operate other ignition sources while refueling.
A permanently mounted A.S.M.E. (American Society of Mechanical Engineers) approved
propane container is located under the floor of your motorhome. Propane expands 1½ percent
for every ten degrees of increase in temperature. It is imperative to leave sufficient space inside
the container to allow for natural expansion of gas during warmer weather.

Servicing or Filling

Because the propane tank is not removable, the motorhome will need to be driven to a
qualified propane facility for servicing or filling. Only the authorized gas service technician(s)
should be near the motorhome while the propane tank is being filled. The new propane
container must be carefully purged for proper appliance performance and operation. The
propane tank must NEVER BE OVERFILLED.
Never allow your propane tank to be filled above the maximum safe level as indicated by the
fixed liquid level gauge. Do not allow the visible gauge to be used for filling. Overfilling the
propane container above the liquid capacity indicated on the container, could allow liquid
propane to enter the system that is designed for vapor only creating a hazardous condition.
The following warning label has been placed on the propane tank:
