2.4 ASPHYXIATION
1. Do not use portable fuel-burning equipment
including wood and charcoal grills and stoves
in the vehicle. The use of this equipment can
generate deadly carbon monoxide gas or
cause fires.
2. Provide proper ventilation when using the gas
range or oven to prevent asphyxiation. Do not
use the oven or range to heat the vehicle.
Long term use of these appliances for space
heating increases the chance of asphyxiation.
Before using the range or oven:
a. Open overhead vent or turn on exhaust
fan, and…
b. Open window.
3. Avoid breathing the exhaust fumes from the
tow vehicle engine and LP gas burners such
as the range, oven, refrigerator, furnace or
water heater. Provide ventilation to the inside
of the trailer for adequate air exchange when
appliances or furnaces are being used to
prevent a build-up of carbon monoxide. Be sure
all alarms are working.
4. Do not run tow vehicle engine in a confined
area such as a garage unless you are immedi-
ately moving it out of the area.
5. Close windows when driving to prevent draw-
ing exhaust fumes into trailer.
2.5 FORMALDEHYDE
TOPAZ
Formaldehyde based adhesives are used in some
components in this vehicle and may release small
amounts of formaldehyde fumes into the vehicle for
an unknown period of time until fully dissipated.
Some people who are allergic to the fumes may
experience irritation to the eyes, ears, nose and
throat. Small infants may have a more serious
reaction. Although long range effects are not well
understood, testing to date has not revealed any
serious health effects in humans at the level of
emission from these products. Reduce the effects
of the formaldehyde fumes by keeping the unit well
ventilated.
1. Read, understand and follow safety sign next to
stove:
2. Use soapy water to check for leaks and watch
for bubbles. Do not use an open flame.
3. Correct or repair leak(s) before using appli-
ances or vehicle again.
2.6 LP GAS LEAKS
IF YOU SMELL GAS
1. Extinguish any open flame, pilot lights and all smoking
material.
2. Do not touch electrical switches.
3. Shut off the LP tank valve.
4. Open doors, windows and roof vents.
5. Leave the area until the odour is gone.
6. Have the system checked for leaks and make the necessary
corrections and repairs.
