X Never leave children in the vehicle unattended.
X Keep flammable materials clear of heating and cooking appliances.
X Lights can get very hot. WHen the light is switched on, a safety distance
of 30 cm to combustible material has to be maintained. Fire hazard!
X Never use portable heating or cooking appliances.
X Only authorised qualified personnel may modify the electrical system,
the gas system or the appliances.
X Always carry a dry powder fire extinguisher in the vehicle. The fire extin-
guisher must be approved, tested and close at hand.
X Have the fire extinguisher tested at regular intervals by authorised qual-
ified personnel. Observe the date of testing.
X The fire extinguisher is not included in the scope of delivery.
X Always keep a fire blanket at hand near the cooker.
X Evacuate all passengers.
X Cut off the electrical power supply and disconnect from the mains.
X Close regulator tap on the gas bottle.
X Sound the alarm and call the fire brigade.
X Fight the fire if this is possible without risk.
Z Keep escape routes clear.
Z Observe the fire extinguisher instructions for use.
X The oxygen in the vehicle interior is used up by breathing and the use of
gas operated appliances. That is why the oxygen needs to be replaced
on a constant basis. For this purpose, forced ventilation options (e.g.
skylights with forced ventilation, mushroom-shaped vents or floor vents)
are fitted to the vehicle. Never cover or block forced ventilations from the
inside or outside with objects such as e.g. a winter mat. Keep forced ven-
tilations clear of snow and leaves. There is a danger of suffocation due
to increased CO

levels.
X Observe the headroom of the doors.
X Gas lines and electrical cables are laid in the floor. Never drill holes or
screw screws into the floor. There is danger of a gas explosion or of a
power cut or short circuit due to damage to a line or cable.
