Liquid Propane Gas System
Do not smoke when refuelling. Keep flames, sparks and smoking material away from fuel or flammable fumes.
Never overfill the LP gas tank. Make sure your Motorhome is level when filling the tank.
Make sure all pilot lights are "OFF" before refueling any of the gas tanks on your Motorhome.
Do not smoke or have any open flame in the area where refueling is taking place.
When testing for leaks in the LP gas system use a soap and water solution. Never use an open flame to test for
leaks.
Never fill the LP gas tank when either the engine or the generator is running.
Keep all protective covers and caps in place.
Remind the service attendant to use the 80% overflow valve when refueling. Space must be left in the tank for
vaporization and expansion.
Never carry LP or any other flammable liquid containers inside the living or driving areas of your Motorhome. Gases
may inadvertently be discharged into the confined space which could result in fire or explosion.
After the LP gas tank has been filled
1.
Check all container and line connections periodically to be sure they are tight. When testing for leaks, use soapy
water (never a match). LP gas has a distinct garlic odor.
2.
If gasoline or LP gas fumes are noticed at any time, the cause should be determined and corrected without delay.
3.
Before opening the control valve via the rocker switch on the monitor panel, check that controls for all gas appliances
are in the "OFF" position. If this is not done, LP gas could accumulate inside the Motorhome creating a fire or
explosion hazard.
4.
LP gas is potentially lethal if inhaled.

Air in the LP Gas Tank

If your LP gas appliances burn poorly or do not stay lit even though you are sure you have plenty of fuel, you may have
air trapped in the LP gas tank. The air will eventually escape along with the LP gas but it may be necessary to you have
your LP gas tank purged of air by ypur LP gas dealer.

Travelling with LP Gas

In some jurisdictions it is illegal to transport LP gas on certain roads or through tunnels. Check state or provincial
regulations to make sure your trip will not be halted or impeded unexpectedly as a result.
