Igniting the cooktop
While holding down the red direct spark ignition, press down on the gas control knob and
turn it counter clockwise. Once the flame has ignited, continue holding the gas control
knob for 2-3 seconds.
If the burner does not start after a few attempts, discontinue the process, let the released
gas dissipate, then try the process again. The burner knobs operate in a counter-clockwise
manner and must be gently pushed inwards as they are being turned. Never use the cook
top when the RV is in motion.

The oven is equipped with a piezoelectric ignition source instead of a pilot light. Therefore,
you do not need to light a pilot light when operating your oven.
cooktop and oven safety
It is wise to have a qualified service technician periodically check the entire LP-gas distribu-
tion system in the RV. Scheduling such an inspection annually would be a recommended,
preventative-maintenance routine for each RV owner.
• DO NOT USE cooking appliances as heating sources for the RV. Cooking appliances re-
quire fresh air for safe operation. Before using any cooking appliance, make sure that an
overhead vent or window is open and/or turn "on" an exhaust fan.
• All LP-gas operated appliances in the RV will consume oxygen. If the unit is totally
closed during such operation, the oxygen level may be reduced and the associated
carbon monoxide level may be increased, thereby causing possible harm or death to the
occupants through asphyxiation. Always use these appliances with proper ventilation.
• Portable fuel burning equipment, including wood and charcoal grills and stoves, should
NEVER be used inside the RV. The use of this equipment inside the RV can cause fire or
asphyxiation and could result in serious injury or death.
• IF YOU SMELL GAS, YOU SHOULD IMMEDIATELY: Extinguish any open flames, pilot
lights, and all smoking materials. Do not touch or operate any electrical appliances or
switches. Immediately shut off the gas supply at the main tank valve or supply con-
nection. Open doors, windows, and other ventilation openings. Exit the RV to allow
entrapped LP gas to dissipate. Have the LP-gas system checked to locate and fix the
source(s) of the leakage.
RANGE Ho oD
In the RV, the "exhaust" or air-filtration fan is built into the microwave, it's called the range
hood, and its function is to filter the air and exhaust to the outside.
