Using The Propane System; Traveling With Propane - THOR Class C Series Owner's Manual

Using the Propane System

After your motorhome is completely set up, to operate the propane system:
1. Close ALL burner valves, controls and pilot light valves.
2. Open the main valve in the propane tank slowly to avoid a fast rush of propane vapor
through the excess flow valve causing propane "freeze-up. " If you experience propane
"freeze-up, " close the main valve and wait 15 minutes before trying again.
3. Listen carefully as propane begins to flow. If a hissing noise is heard for more than one or
two seconds, close the main valve and contact your selling dealer's Service Department to
have the propane system tested.
4. Light the appliances as needed and directed in the appropriate appliance manufacturer
instructions.
Make sure that you read and fully understand ALL safety requirements for handling and
operation of the propane system.

Traveling With Propane
