b) The initial use of dry powder
extinguishers is recommended only if it
likely that the leakage can be stopped by
closing the cylinder valve or that the
cylinder can be speedily removed.
c) Cool with water all gas cylinders that
cannot be removed.
d) As soon as possible remove cylinders
adjacent to the fire to safe place in order
to gain access to the seat of the fire.
CONNECTION
Ensure that the gas regulator hose is
correctly connected to the gas cylinder in
gas bottle compartment and that the hose
connection is tight.
Gas bottles must be fully located, seated at
the base of the bottles and restrained by the
strap provided in the dedicated
compartment position.
Straps are positioned to suit 6kg, 7 kg and
13kg bottles.
WARNING: If using cylinders other than
those recommended, the user must
ensure these are adequately supported,
ventilation openings must not be
obstructed and the cylinders must not
cause damage to other fixtures and
fittings located in the compartment.
Open ended gas hoses must always be
protected from dirt and insects.
Before turning on the gas supply at the
regulator, ensure that all gas operated
equipment in the motorhome is turned off.
All gas equipment is supplied through a
central Gas Manifold System which has
individual isolation taps for each appliance

THERMAL INSULATION HEATING
Your motorhome has been designed to
achieve a thermal insulation and heating
level for specific climatic conditions when
tested according to the procedure in
EN1646-1. The classifications are as follows:
GRADE 1
A motorhome with an average thermal
transmittance (u) that does not exceed
1.7w/(m
2
k).
GRADE 2
A motorhome with an average thermal
transmittance (u) that does not exceed
1.7w/(m
2
k) and which can achieve an
average temperature difference of at least

20k between inside and outside temper-
atures when the outside temperature is 0°C.
GRADE 3
A motorhome with an average thermal
transmittance (u) that does not exceed
1.2w/(m
2
k) and which can achieve
an average temperature difference of at
least 35k between inside and outside
temperatures when the outside temperature
is -15°C.
