Section 7 - LP Gas Systems
Page 7-4
Since your vehicle was manufactured to provide you with access to all gas
line connections, it is suggested that a check for leaks be made each time the
LP gas tank is refilled. Continued periodic checks of the system are recom-
mended due to the vibration encountered during travel.
Be sure to shut off the main LP gas supply valve when the vehicle is not
in use.
WARNING
The LP gas supply valve, the thermostats for both furnaces, the water
heater switch, and the refrigerator control switch should also be shut off
while the vehicle is being refueled to prevent any accidental ignition of
fumes by the automatic ignition spark.

ETECTOR
The LP leak detector is designed to sound an alarm when an LP leak is de-
tected and 12 volt power is available.
The leak detector should be tested weekly. To test the unit, simply press
the Test switch. The LED should flash RED and the alarm should sound. Re-
lease the switch to end the test.
If the LP alarm sounds during normal operation:
1. Do not touch any electrical switches.
2. Do not use the phone in your vehicle.
3. Turn off all gas appliances (stove, furnaces, water heater, refrigerator).
4. Extinguish any open flame.
5. Open windows and doors.
6. Evacuate the vehicle.
7. Turn off the main gas supply (valve at tank).
8. Immediately call your gas supplier, fire department, or other emergency
service if you feel it is necessary.
9. Do not re-enter until the problem is corrected.
The microprocessor will activate an alarm when it detects a malfunction
in the leak detectors operation. The LED will alternately flash Red and Green,
while the sounder beeps twice every 15 seconds. Remove the detector imme-
diately and return it to the manufacturer for repair or replacement.
CO D
ETECTOR
The CO detector is designed to sound an alarm when excessive carbon
monoxide is detected and 12 volt power is available. This detector will only in-
dicate the presence of carbon monoxide gas at the sensor.
