1.2 Gas system safety instructions
The gas cylinder is located in a locker of the cockpit settee.
Type of cylinder 13 kg (butane), or according to current standards of
your country.
Close the valves on the system and on the cylinder when the
appliances are not used.
Close the valves before you change cylinders and immediately in case
of emergency.
Never leave unattended an appliance that is working.
Do not install flammable materials above or over the stove (curtains,
papers, napkins etc.).
Do not use the oven or stove as back up heaters.
Never obstruct the fast access to the components of the gas system.
Make sure that the valves of the appliances are closed before you
open the cylinder or pipe valve.
In case you smell gas or find that the burners have gone out (although
appliance models cut off automatically if the flames go out), turn off
the valves of the appliances. Do ventilate the boat in order to get rid
of any residual gas. Find the cause of the problem.
Regularly test the gas system in order to detect any gas leak.
Check all the connections using water and soap or detergent, closing
the valves of the appliances and opening the valve on the cylinder.
If you detect a leak, close the valve of the cylinder and repair before
you use it again.
The appliances use the oxygen of the cabin and release combustible
gases. Ventilate your boat when using appliances.
Do not obstruct the air vents and at least leave the door open.
Keep the taps of the empty cylinders turned off and the cylinders
disconnected.
Keep the protections, lids, covers and taps in their places.
Store the empty and spare cylinders on the deck or in a locker with a
ventilation to the open air.
Do not use the gas cylinder storage place to store other equipment.
Only use the proper locker to store the gas cylinders.
Regularly check and replace the rubber tubings that link the cylinder
to one end of the circuit and the stove to the other one, depending on
the standards and regulations in force in your country.
Pay particular attention to keep in good condition the screw thread of
the cylinder on which the regulator is. Check the condition of the
regulator every year and change it if necessary. Use regulators
identical to the ones that are fitted.
Have the repairs carried out by someone skilled.
WARNING
- Never use a flame to detect leaks.
- Do not smoke, do not use a naked flame when you
change the gas cylinder.
