LPG System Operation Summary
Close the tank valve immediately in any emergency.
(LPG tank is located under upper station dash)
Be sure all appliance valves are closed before opening
the tank valve.
Always apply a lit match or other flame source to burner
before
opening burner valve.
Close the tank valve whenever appliance is not in use.
Test the system for leakage at least twice a month in
accordance with the following procedure:
1. With appliance valves CLOSED and with tank valve
OPEN, note the pressure on gauge.
2. CLOSE the cylinder valve. If the pressure reading on the
gauge drops,
