Should you experience a gas “freeze-up”, close the main valve and
wait 15 minutes before trying again. Keep the container valve (s)
closed when traveling. Some states prohibit traveling with the pro-
pane container valves open, especially in underground tunnels on
expressways.
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. Solve leak before proceeding.
4. Light appliances as needed and directed in Chapter Five - Appli-
ances
If You Smell Gas:
1. Extinguish any open flames, pilot lights, and all smoking materi-
als.
2. Do not touch electrical switches.
3. Shut off the gas supply at the tank valve( s) or gas supply connection.
4. Open doors and other ventilating openings.
5. Leave area until the odor clears.
6. Have the gas system checked and leakage source corrected
before using again.
