Gas bottle
Handle full or emptied gas bottles outside the vehicle only with closed
regulator tap and attached protective cap.
Gas bottles are only to be transported within the designated gas bottle
compartment.
Place the gas bottles in vertical position in the gas bottle compart-
ment.
Fasten the gas bottles so that they are unable to turn or tilt.
Connect the gas tube to the gas bottle without tension.
If the gas bottles are not connected to the gas tube, always place the
protective cap on top.
Close the regulator tap on the gas bottle before the gas pressure reg-
ulator or gas tube are removed from the gas bottle.
Depending on the connection, unscrew the gas tube from the gas bot-
tle and screw it on the gas bottle again by hand or using an suitable
special spanner. The screw connection on the gas bottle generally
has a left-hand thread. Do not tighten too firmly.
Only use special gas pressure regulators with a safety valve designed
for vehicle use. Other gas pressure regulators are not permitted and
cannot meet the demanding requirements.
Use the gas pressure regulator defroster if the temperature falls below
5 °C.
Use only 11 kg or 5 kg gas bottles. (The size of the gas bottles may
vary depending on the country.) Camping gas bottles with built-in
check valve (blue bottle with max. 2.5 or 3 kg content) can be used in
exceptional cases with a safety valve.
Use the shortest possible tube lengths (150 cm max.) for external gas
bottles.
Never block the floor ventilation openings below the gas bottles.
3.6
Electrical system
Only allow qualified personnel to work on the electrical system.
Prior to carrying out work on the electrical system, switch off all de-
vices and lights, disconnect the battery and disconnect the vehicle
from the mains.
Only use original fuses with the stipulated values.
Only replace defective fuses when the cause of the defect is known
and has been remedied.
Never bridge or repair fuses.
