Fuel Safety
Some generators are fueled by the same system used to fuel the chassis engine. Check the
generator manufacturer and the chassis manufacturer information to help determine the type
of fuel best suited for this dual application.
Remove the fuel ll cap by slowly turning it counterclockwise, waiting for any “hiss” noise
to stop, and then unscrew the cap all the way. To close the fuel ll cap, securely turn the cap
clockwise until you hear clicking sounds.
Use care when fueling your motor home. If you spill fuel on the motor home, clean it up
immediately. Fuel can dull or soften paint and damage other surfaces.
Automotive fuels can cause serious injury or death if misused or mishandled.
If you have further questions, consult your dealer or Customer Service for
assistance.
Always shut OFF the vehicle engine while refueling.
Do not bring or store fuel or other ammable liquids inside the motor
home as a re or explosion may result.
Before refueling, extinguish all smoking materials and any open ames.
Before refueling, always turn OFF all spark producing appliances (i.e.,
water heaters, furnaces, etc.).
Do not overll the fuel tank(s). The pressure in an overlled fuel tank
may cause leakage and lead to fuel spray and/or re.
Fuel spills represent a serious re hazard, and should be cleaned up im-
mediately.
Never restart an engine or re-light any pilot lights while raw fuel is pres-
ent.
Do not replace the fuel ll cap with one of a dierent type. Only use a cap
specied for your motor home. Use of a substitute cap may create excessive
fuel system pressure, resulting in fuel station damage and improper operation
in a collision.
All pilot lights, appliances and their igniters (see operating instructions)
should be turned o before refueling of motor fuel tanks.
These can cause ignition of ammable vapors, which can lead to a re or
explosion.
