Safety notes regarding the operation of the liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) unit
The yacht is equipped with an LPG unit. Please observe the following notes when
operating it:
Action in case of a smell of gas
If you smell gas, shut the valve of the gas cylinder and air the boat intensively. The presence of gas
fumes can be checked for by means of gas detectors.
Have a specialist examine and remedy the cause before using the gas system again!
Notes on preventing malfunctions of the LPG unit:
 Shut the valves of the supply line and the cylinder if the stove is not in use. In case of an
emergency, shut the valves immediately.
 Make sure that the valves of the appliances are shut before opening the valve of the cylinder!
 Check the LPG unit for possible leakages on a regular basis. Check all connections with soap
water. (When doing so, the valves of the appliances must be shut and the valves of the
cylinders and the unit open.)
