RANGE/COOKTOP

The range is fueled by propane gas and functions very much like your
range at home. Some functions may be slightly different because of being
powered by propane gas.
Important Safety Information you must know and understand:
• Never use the range to heat your camper. This is a major fire hazard
and can also cause carbon monoxide poisoning.
• Always turn on the range hood exhaust fan and open vents when
cooking. Gas cooking appliances need fresh air to operate safely.
• Prevent fire and damage hazards by using approved pan sizes.
Generally, the pan should cover the burner but must not be
more than one inch larger. Keep handles turned inward but not over
other burners.
• Only use cookware that is approved for use on top burners and are
suitable to be exposed to direct flame.
• When using the burners and afterward, do not touch the burner grates.
• If you need to light the range with an external source, use a grill,
kitchen or BBQ lighter as opposed to a flint lighter. This will keep
your hands away from the flame.
• Keep the area around the appliance clear and free from
combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors
and materials.
• Never leave unattended food, utensils or food on the range.
• Do not use aerosol cans near any appliance with open flames.
Most aerosol cans are explosive when exposed to heat and may be
highly flammable.
• Do not leave plastic items on the cook-top as they may melt or
soften. This can contaminate food if it is in plastic containers.
The best practice is to discard the container and contents as a
safety precaution.
• Familiarize yourself with the safety information on propane gas.
See page 30-32.
• In a fire emergency execute your family's Safety Plan as outlined on
page 10-13 This is vital to you and your family's safety.
Operating Information:
• An igniter switch will light the burners. Press the igniter switch
while turning on the control knob to release gas. Sometimes it
may be necessary to light the burner with an external ignition such
as lighter.
• Depending on the altitude where you are camping, the range
temperatures may be affected because of the thin air and minimal
oxygen. In extreme altitudes you may not be able to heat food
properly. The only real solution to this is to move to a lower altitude
or pack cold food.
Read the owner or operator manual included in your Owner's Packet for
detailed safety information and operating instructions pertaining to the range.
DANGER
Do not use gas cooking appliances for
comfort heating. May lead to carbon
monoxide poisoning, which can lead to
death or serious injury.
WARNING
Do not turn the burner control knobs
ON, allowing gas to escape before
lighting a match or using an electronic
igniting device.
WARNING
Gas cooking appliances need fresh air
for safe operation. Before operating:
Open vents or windows slightly or turn
on exhaust fan prior to using cooking
appliance. Gas flames consume oxygen,
which should be replaced to ensure
proper combustion. Improper use may
result in death or serious injury.
