PROPANE GAS SYSTEM
Safe operang procedures for your propane gas system
The OP15 is ed with a dual mount for two 20lb. PROPANE gas
boles and an automac changeover dual regulator. Both boles can
be connected to the regulator at the same and the regulator will
automacally switch between the gas boles as required. The OP15
gas system will also work with only one propane tank installed. Please
ensure the gas boles are turned o when the gas is not in use.
To install a gas cylinder, place the gas bole in the holder and use the
provided clamp to hold the cylinder in place. Adjust the t if necessary
by turning the threaded triangle bolt. Ensure that you have the correct
gas hose to connect the gas cylinder to the xed gas regulator; your
OP15 comes with a regulator-to-gas bole pigtail hose which should
be compable with most US standard propane boles. Once
connected to the propane bole, the gas tap/valve on the top of the
gas bole can now be opened.
To connect the gas system on the kitchen; stowed under the sink there is a gas hose ed to the stove that has a quick connect on
the other end. Thread the gas hose through the aperture under the kitchen and connect to the gas quick connect on the side of the
OP15. Turn on the blue gas tap on the gas quick connect on the side of the OP15 by turning 90° so that it is parallel with the xture.
To operate the gas stove; li up the stainless steel lid, turn on one of the burners (push in, turn and hold to ignite). Keep pressing
the buon unl the gas has had me to ll up the system and the
burner will ignite. You may need to hold the buon in for up to 10
seconds before ignion to overcome the accidental ignion safety
precauon in-built in the hob. Do NOT lean across the burners to
reach the stove controls.
When the stove is not in use, please ensure the gas is turned o at the
quick connect valve on the side of the OP15. If not using the Truma
combi system, please also turn the valve on the gas boles to the o/
closed posion.
Please note that your Truma Combi System uses the propane system. Your propane tanks must be connected and in the open/ on
posion to supply the Truma Combi system to produce heat or hot water. Please refer to the secon on the Truma Combi system
for further informaon on how to operate.
You have an Propane (LP) / Carbon Monoxide (CO) detector installed in your OP15, direct wired to the baery. Please read the
user manual supplied for the detector to fully understand correct usage. If the Propane or Carbon Dioxide warning alarm sounds,
evacuate the trailer immediately and, if safe to do so, close o and fully disconnect the propane tanks. Do not touch any
electrical switches.. Follow proper and safe steps to venlate the trailer and await for the alarm to stop before returning to the
trailer. If a propane leak is suspected fully disconnect the propane tanks and make an appointment to have your OP15 serviced
with your dealership.
Ensure that the gas bole valve is closed prior to packing up the OP15 for transit or storage, the quick connect valve on the side of
the OP15 has been closed and that the gas hose has been disconnected from the side of the OPUS and carefully stowed inside the
kitchen. Please make sure that the gas hose is fully inserted into the kitchen before sliding the kitchen into the storage
compartment. Failure to do so can lead to the gas hose geng caught in the runners which can lead to damage.
Do not use any other gas systems than those provided with the OP15. Always turn o the shut o valve IMMEDIATELY aer use.
