flame for 3 seconds.

LIGHTING PROPANE APPLIANCES
Detailed operating information for the Propane
appliances can be found in your Owner's
Information Package. Please read and follow
these instructions.
Air trapped in the Propane lines may delay the
initial lighting of any appliance. It could take
several seconds or minutes for the Propane to
reach the appliance. To purge some of the air
from the Propane system, first light a burner on
the range. The other appliances will then light
more quickly.
The first time the furnace or oven is operated,
paints and oils used in its manufacture may gen-
erate some smoke and fumes. If this occurs,
open doors and windows to air out the motor
home. These materials should burn off after the
first 15 to 20 minutes of appliance operation.
Always follow the appliance manufacturer's
lighting, operating and maintenance instrllctions.
A
WARNING
The Propane detector/alarm is powered by a 12·volt
source. Any interruption in power will render this
alarm inoperative. Always ensure power is applied
especially when appliances are in use .
