flare fittings. If any of the gas lines rupture, do not attempt to splice them.
Always run a new line. We recommend gas distribution work be performed by
an authorized service technician. The main valve at the LP tank must be closed
when removing or servicing any gas appliance. This will prevent dangerous
gas leakage that could result in an explosion and possibly serious injury. If a
leak is suspected, have the systems inspected and repaired by a qualified
service technician.
Precautions & Recommendations
•
Inspect the LP fill valve for foreign materials before refueling.
•
Shut the pilot lights off prior to refueling LP gas tanks.
•
Never check for gas leaks with an open flame (match, etc.).
•
Gas lines should be visually inspected periodically.
•
Have the gas system inspected yearly and before and after extended
trips.
•
The gas system should be inspected and repaired by qualified
technicians only.
WARNING
The LP system in your recreational vehicle is designed for liquefied petroleum
gas only. Never attempt to connect natural gas or butane gas in this system.

recognizing the danger and practicing common sense safety and maintenance
habits. For safety reasons, your unit is furnished with both a fire extinguisher
and a smoke alarm.
