Operation
After the camper is completely set up and you are prepared for
camping enjoyment, follow these steps for propane operation.
1. Be sure ALL burner valves, controls, and pilot light valves are
closed.
2. Open main valve on propane container slowly to avoid a fast
rush through excess flow valve causing “propane freeze”.
3. Listen carefully as propane begins to flow. If a “hissing” sound
is heard for more than one or two seconds, close valve and
search for a potential leak.
4. Light appliances as needed and directed in Chapter Five - Appli-
ances.

FAILURE TO COMPLY COULD RESULT IN DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY.
Unlike homes, the amount of oxygen supply is limited due to the size of the
recreational vehicle, and proper ventilation when using the cooking appli-
ances avoids danger of asphyxiation. It is especially important that cooking
appliances not be used for comfort heating, as the danger of asphyxiation is
greater when the appliance is used for long periods of time.
FAILURE TO COMPLY COULD RESULT IN DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY.
