. The flexible
exhaust pipe connects to the flue tube of the refri
g
era-
tors coolin
g
unit and routes to the bottom openin
g
of
the vent terminal housin
g
. Use the non-combustible
insulation material supplied with the vent-air intake/ex-
haust kit.
Do not insulate the Air Intake pipe.

Testing of the Vehicle’s Gas Supply Piping
When installation is complete, the propane
g
as
suppl
y
pipin
g
must be inspected and tested for leaks
from the refri
g
erator to the main
g
as suppl
y
tank. Use
a leak detection solution.
Do not test for leaks with an
open flame.
If compressed air is used for leak testin
g
, the pressure
must not exceed 1/2 psi
g
(
14 inches water column
)
.
The appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be
disconnected from the
g
as suppl
y
pipin
g
s
y
stem durin
g
an
y
pressure testin
g
of that s
y
stem at test pressure in
excess of 1/2 psi
g
(
14 inches water column
)
.
The appliance must be isolated from the
g
as suppl
y
pipin
g
s
y
stem b
y
closin
g
its manual shutoff valve durin
g
an
y
pressure testin
g
of the
g
as suppl
y
pipin
g
s
y
stem at
test pressure less than or e
q
ual to 1/2 psi
g
(
14 inches
water column
)
.
Check the
g
as pressure to the refri
g
erator without
other
g
as appliances operatin
g
. The pressure should
not exceed 11 inches water column. With other appli-
ances operatin
g
the pressure should not be less than
10.5 inches water column.
Check Out of Flame Failure Safety Device
1. To verif
y
operation of the flame failure safet
y
device, start the refri
g
erator in the
g
as mode
(
