Open the gas cylinder’s valve.
• Press the hose-break safety device and,
if necessary, the gas-flow monitor (see:
Taking into operation).
When changing hoses, make sure that the
gasket inside the hose connection is installed
properly and undamaged.
We recommend replacing the gasket every
time you replace a hose. Anytime after making
changes, check the hose connections to the
cylinder valve and to the inlet of the SecuMotion
gas-pressure regulator for leaks (see: Checking
for leaks in the high pressure area).
Checking for leaks in the high pressure area
A trained technician must check the low
pressure area for leaks. In addition, we
recommend that the person responsible for
operating the gas system check the high
pressure area for leaks after every cylinder or
hose replacement.
In particular, the screw fittings on the gas
cylinder valve and on the regulator inlet should
be checked for leaks with the proper tools,
such as a leak-finder spray according to DIN
EN 14291.
Warning: When travelling using the en-route
system all other lpg appliance shut off valves
must be in the closed position including the
fridge, cooker, water heater etc.
Note: It is dangerous and illegal to operate
other LPG appliances whilst travelling
Warning: If you smell gas or suspect a
leak and it is safe to do so, isolate the
heater and turn off the gas bottles at
the regulator. Evacuate the vehicle and
ventilate. Seek professional advice as to
the cause of the leak
Service and repairs must only to be carried
out by a competent service engineer.
THERMAL INSULATION
AND HEATING
Your vehicle has been designed to achieve a
thermal insulation and heating level for specific
climatic conditions when tested according to
the procedure in EN1646-1. The classifications
are as follows:
GRADE 1
A vehicle with an average thermal transmittance
(u) that does not exceed 1.7w/(m
2
k).
GRADE 2
A vehicle with an average thermal transmittance
(u) that does not exceed 1.7w/(m
2
k) and
which can achieve an average temperature
difference of at least 20k between inside
and outside temperatures when the outside
temperature is 0°C.
GRADE 3
A vehicle with an average thermal transmittance
(u) that does not exceed 1.2w/(m
2
k) and which
can achieve an average temperature difference
of at least 35k between inside and outside
temperatures when the outside temperature
is -15°C.
