6. Do not carry or store filled or empty LP gas containers,
including accessories such as gas barbecues, in your motor
home. LP gas containers are equipped with a safety device that
relieves excessive pressure by discharging gas to the atmos-
phere. Leaks can occur at valves and fittings. Always store LP
tanks outside with the valves closed and plugged.
7. Do not use any LP gas tank other than the one furnished with
your motor home without being sure that all connecting com-
ponents are compatible.
8. Turn off LP gas main valve before filling LP gas tank or enter-
ing an LP gas bulk plant or motor fuel service station. Turn off
all pilot lights and appliances individually before refueling of
motor fuel tanks and/or LP gas containers. When not individu-
ally turned off, automatic ignition appliances may continue to
spark when LP gas is turned off at the container.
9. Do not fill LP gas containers to more than 80% capacity.
Overfilling can result in uncontrolled gas flow which can cause
fire and explosion. A properly filled container holds about 80%
of its volume as liquid.
10. LP gas regulators must always be installed with the
diaphragm vent facing downward. Make sure that the regulator
vent faces downward and that the cover is kept in place to min-
imize vent blockage which could result in excessive gas pres-
sure causing fire or explosion.
11. Do not use a wrench or pliers to close the tank shut-off
valve. This valve is designed to be closed leak-tight by hand. If
a tool is required to stop a leak, the valve probably needs repair
or replacement.
12. If you do not have the special tools and training necessary,
do not attempt to repair or modify LP gas system components.
13. Always think safety.
