WARNING
Your LPG tanks must be filled as directed by the
tank manufacturer. Instructions are located on a
decal near the fill valve. The decal must not be
defaced.
WARNING
The LPG tanks are securely mounted on the
front A- frame of your trailer. If these tanks
must be removed for service or replacement, it is
important that they be reinstalled correctly to
prevent any possibility of their falling off or
becoming dislodged during travel.
WARNING
Use only the LPG tanks furnished with your
trailer. If replacement is required, it must be a
bottle of the same size and design.

Basic Rules for LPG Safety

A warning label is displayed in the cooking area
reminding you to provide an adequate supply of
fresh air for combustion. The amount of oxygen
supply in a trailer is limited due to its compact
design. When using the cooking appliances, proper
ventilation will prevent dangers of asphyxiation. It
is especially important that cooking appliances not
be used for comfort heating as the danger of
asphyxiation is greater when the appliance is used
for long periods of time.
WARNING
A warning label has been located near the LPG
container. This label reads: DO NOT FILL
CONTAINER(S) TO MORE THAN 80
PERCENT OF CAPACITY. Overfilling the LPG
container can result in uncontrolled gas flow,
which can cause fire or explosion. A properly
filled container will contain approximately 80
percent of its volume as liquid LP gas.
WARNING
Do not bring or store LPG tanks, gasoline, or
other flammable liquids inside the vehicle
because a fire or explosion may result.
WARNING
Portable fuel burning equipment, including
wood and charcoal grills and stoves, shall not be
used inside the recreational vehicle. The use of
this equipment inside the recreational vehicle
may cause fires or asphyxiation.
WARNING
Do not store LPG tanks within a vehicle. LPG
tanks are equipped with safety devices that vent
gas should the pressure become excessive
Twice a year, or after a long storage period, we
suggest you take your unit in for a checkup and
cleaning of the gas-operated appliances.
If You Smell Gas
1. Extinguish any open flames, pilot lights, and
all smoking materials.
2. Do not touch electrical switches.
3. Shut off the gas supply at the tank valve(s)
or gas supply connection.
4. Open doors and other ventilating openings.
5. Leave the area until odor clears.
6.
Have the gas system checked and leakage
source corrected before using again.
