DANGER
All pilot lights, appliances and their
igniters shall be turned off before
refueling of motor fuel tanks and/or
propane containers. Failing to do so may
cause ignition of flammable vapors,
which can lead to a fire or explosion and
result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
Do not fill propane container(s) to more
than 80% capacity. A properly filled
container contains approximately 80% of
its volume as liquid propane. Overfilling
the propane container(s) can result in
uncontrolled propane flow, which could
lead to a fire or explosion and result in
death or serious injury.
Get Cookin'
Follow Steps 8-10 after stabilizing and

Truck Campers • nucamprv.com
Only approved DOT propane gas cylinders may be used for
the camper.
Fill LP tanks at authorized propane fueling facilities only.
It is illegal to fill LP tanks inside the compartment or inside your
camper. Remove LP tanks from the camper to fill them.
Never overfill the LP tanks beyond the safe level.
Never put a vertical tank in a horizontal position or vice versa.
Always extinguish all open flames and shut off appliances before
removing or reinstalling LP tanks.
When LP tanks are not connected to the piping system, always
attach a dust cap to the connection fitting to keep it clean.
Steps for properly removing, filling and reinstalling the LP bottle(s):
1. Close valves securely on both LP tanks. Hand tighten only. This will
shut off all appliances.
2. Unthread the pigtail hose attached to the empty LP tank and attach
the dust cap.
3. Remove the empty LP tank from the compartment.
4. Fill the LP tank at a qualified propane fueling station.
5. Place the filled LP tank in the compartment and securely fasten it.
6. Remove the dust cap.
7. Carefully thread and hand tighten the pigtail hose connector onto
the tank's fitting.
8. Open the valve on the LP tank very slowly to prevent a rush of liquid
propane called freeze-up. If you experience freeze up, close the
valve, wait 15 minutes and try again.
9. When you open the valve, you will hear a hissing noise. If the hiss
lasts longer than 2 seconds, close the valve and have your dealer
service the propane system. You may have a leak.
10. If there is no leak, start appliances according to manufacturer's
instructions included in your Owner's Packet.

PROPANE REGULATOR

Your camper is equipped with a two-stage regulator that reduces pressure
from the LP tank to the piping system. The first stage drops pressure to 10-
13 lbs. pressure. The second stage drops pressure to the 6.35 oz. pressure
(11" Water Column or ½ PSI) needed to operate appliances properly.
Pressures that are too high or too low will cause safety hazards and affect
overall appliance performance. Consult your dealer or a qualified service
professional to have the regulator adjusted with a properly calibrated
manometer.
The regulator may have a built-in automatic changeover valve. This valve
will automatically change the gas supply over to the reserve tank if the
main supply tank should become empty.
