propAne sAfety procedure
Propane is a colorless and odorless gas that, in the liqueed state, resembles water. An
odorant (usually a sulfur compound) is added as a warning agent. If you smell propane
within the vehicle, quickly and carefully perform the procedure listed on the label below.
This label has been placed in the vehicle near the range, for models equipped with a propane
system
When propane container is low, occasionally there may be a concentration of an onion or
garlic-like odor, which can be mistaken for a propane gas leak. After the propane container
has been refueled, the odor will usually disappear. If not, turn off the valve(s) and have the
propane system inspected by your dealer or qualied propane service representative.
Fuel spills represent a serious re hazard, and should be cleaned up
immediately. Never restart an engine or re-light any pilot lights while raw
fuel is present.

propAne GAs contAiner
Propane is a true gas compressed into a liquid form. As the fuel is released from the container,
it changes to vapor which is then used for the operation of the appliances. Propane will not
run through the appliances in the liquid state. A permanently mounted A.S.M.E. approved
propane container is located under the oor of the motor home.
Propane expands 1½ percent for every ten degrees of increase in temperature. It is imperative
to leave sufcient space inside the container to allow for natural expansion of gas during
warmer weather.
NOTE: Tanks are to be installed, fueled and maintained in accor-
dance to State and Local codes, rules, regulations or laws.
