GENERAL INFORMATION
Gas Cylinders
Bottled Liquified Petroleum Gas (LPG) is the
most convenient portable source of fuel for
your caravan. Make sure that heating and
cooking appliances and the gas cylinders are
switched off before you move the caravan.
Regularly check flexible gas hose, joints and
connections for tightness.
Finally make sure that each gas appliance is
working efficiently to the recommendations of
the appliance manufacturers.
Only use gas bottle cylinders that are located
within their dedicated position within the front
gas bottle housing, never extend hose - hose
lengths must not exceed 400mm.
Regulator
Your caravan is supplied with a wall mounted
gas regulator plumbed inside the gas cylinder
compartment. The regulator and all appliances
work at a harmonised 30mb pressure, which
work with Butane and Propane gas.
Your caravan is supplied with a stainless steel
propane hose to connect to a propane
gas cylinder.
Pressure regulation system in this vehicle has
a fixed working pressure of 30 mbar with a
flow rate of 1.5 kg/h and complies with the
requirements of EN 12864 annex D.
Note: Regulator valves and cylinder valves
should always be in the 'OFF' position when
towing and storage.
WARNING: When leaving the caravan for
any period of time or storage always turn off
the gas at the gas cylinder.
