Propane is a true gas compressed into a
liquid form. As the fuel is released from the
container, it changes to vapor which is then
used for the operation of the appliances.
Propane will not run through the appliances in
the liquid state.
Propane expands 1½ percent for every ten
degrees of increase in temperature.
imperative to leave sufficient space inside the
container to allow for natural expansion of gas
during warmer weather.
The main shut off valve must be kept closed
at all times unless you are using the propane
system or filling the propane cylinder. When
the cylinder is disconnected from the hose,
install the valve cover that is attached to the
container.
Close the propane cylinder main shut off
valve by hand tightening only. Use of tools
creates a potential to over tighten the valve

Servicing or filling

Before entering a propane or fuel service
station make sure all pilot lights are
extinguished. Shut off gas to all appliances
by closing the propane gas main shut off
valve. Always shut OFF any engine before
refueling. Do not smoke and do not
operate other ignition
refueling.
Have the RV checked for leaks at the
connections on the propane system soon
after the purchase and the initial filling of each
propane cylinder. When you have a new
cylinder filled for the first time, make sure your
propane supplier purges your new cylinder of
trapped air. Otherwise, an improper mixture of
gas and air will make it impossible to light
your propane appliances.
No one should be inside and only the qualified
propane service technician should be near the
RV while the propane tank is being filled. The
new propane container must be carefully
purged for best performance and must
NEVER BE OVERFILLED. The following
label should be kept permanently affixed to
your RV.
