SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

LP GAS LEAKS

The following label is located in the vehicle

near the range area. If you smell gas within the

vehicle, quickly and carefully perform the proce-

dures listed.

LP GAS ALARM

Your coach is equipped with an LP gas detec-

tor which sounds an alarm if an unsafe amount of

LP gas is present inside the coach. Because LP

gas is heavier than air, the detector is located on

a cabinet face near the floor of the coach.

A green light on the face of the alarm shows

when the unit is active. The red button is used to

reset the alarm.

If The Alarm Sounds

If the alarm sounds, do not touch any electri-

cal switches. Immediately turn off the main LP

tank valve and all LP appliances, open all win-

dows and roof vents, and leave the coach until

the alarm stops sounding.

If the alarm keeps sounding at regular inter-

vals, a leak may be present. Contact your dealer

or an LP gas service center to have the problem

corrected before using the LP system again.

If the coach batteries become extremely

drained, an amber light on the face of the alarm

will come on and in some cases the LP alarm may

begin to sound on its own. This condition typical-

ly occurs only during storage situations when

battery charge is not being restored by the invert-

er charger or solar charger.

Power Connection

The gas alarm is powered by the coach batter-

ies. If the battery cable is disconnected from the

batteries, auxiliary battery switch is shut off, or

the circuit breaker is tripped, the alarm will not

work. The LP gas alarm breaker is located on the

coach breaker fuse panel shown on page 6-8.

IF YOU SMELL GAS

1. Extinguish any open flames, pilot

lights and all smoking materials.

2. Do not touch electrical switches.

3. Shut off the gas supply at the tank

valve(s) or gas supply connection.

4. Open doors and other ventilating

openings.

5. Leave the area until odor clears.

6. Have the gas system checked and

leakage source corrected before

using again.

WARNING

Never use an open flame to test for

gas leaks. When testing for gas line

leaks with a soapy water solution, DO

NOT use a detergent containing

ammonia or chlorine. These sub-

stances may generate a chemical

reaction causing corrosion to gas

lines, resulting in dangerous leak con-

ditions.
