designated vent openings while appliances are in use. Do
not use the stove or oven space heang. Never obstruct
venlaon openings.

LPG Pipe & Hoses
Your LPG system consists of hoses connecng the LPG tank to the stove. The hoses in the LPG system
must be inspected regularly, at least annually, and replaced if any deterioraon is found.
System Leak Test
Prior to the boat leaving the factory, the LPG system is tested for any potenal leaks. However,
Quicksilver® recommends that you test the system regularly. Test all connecons for leakage by
means of the following:
1. Before each use, close appliance valves; open LPG cylinder valve; allow indicated gauge
pressure to stabilize; close LPG cylinder valve; observe pressure gauge reading near cylinder
valve for three minutes; pressure gauge reading should remain constant if no leak in the
system is present. IF PRESSURE GAUGE READING FALLS, LEAK IS PRESENT. DO NOT USE LPG
APPLIANCES.
2. Roune observaon of bubble leak detector (if ed on the system).
3. Manual leak tesng with foam-producing, soapy water or detergent soluons (with appliance
burner valves closed and cylinder and system valves open); foam-producing soluons for leak
detecon on gas installaons in accordance with EN 14291 meet these requirements.
If a leak is present, shut o the LPG supply at the main supply valve. Exnguish any open ames
(heaters, stoves, etc.) and do not operate any electric switches. Finally, evacuate the area if possible.
Quicksilver® recommends that any LPG system repairs should be made by your authorized
Quicksilver® dealer.
Do not use an LPG system that has leaked unl it has been
inspected and repaired by a competent person.
If a leak is detected, shut o the main LPG supply valve and
do not use LPG appliances
Changing LPG Cylinders
To replace empty LPG cylinder:
1. Turn o the stove and close the shuto valve.
2. Close the valve on the LPG cylinder.
3. Remove the regulator by turning the nut clockwise.
4. Replace the empty tank.
5. Inspect the regulator. Make sure that the gasket located on the regulator nut is in good
condion. If not, replace regulator gasket or regulator itself.
6. Re-install and ghten the regulator by turning the nut counterclockwise.
7. Check for any leaks before restarng the stove.
9. Bow Anchor Windlass (oponal)
