Maintenance
Although your motor home has been carefully tested at the factory and by your selling dealer
for leakage, travel vibrations can loosen ttings. Have the vehicle propane system checked
at all connections soon after the purchase of your vehicle, and after the initial lling of the
propane tanks.
Continued periodic checks of the propane system at 5,000 miles of travel (or at least once
a year), by a qualied propane service representative as part of your normal maintenance is
recommended. Hand tighten the LP gas system valves only, do not use a wrench or pliers as
over tightening may damage the valve seals and cause them to leak.

the time of manufature. Dealers are required to recheck and adjust
pressure before retail delivery

Leaks may be found easily with a soapy water solution. Do not use a solution containing
ammonia or chlorine when locating leaks. These products are corrosive to copper gas lines
and brass ttings, which could result in deterioration of the copper and brass components.
Apply the soapy solution to the outside of the gas piping ttings. If a leak is present, the
soapy solution will “bubble” at the leak point. If a leak is indicated, shut off the propane
system valve(s) and contact an independent Entegra dealer or qualied propane service
representative immediately.
