Specifications

Always ensure that the new filter cartridge is
pushed fully home into the housing.
CARVER COMPACT
Connect the fresh water hose directly to the
Carver Compact inlet.
Finally put the “pump” switch on the control
panel to “on” and turn the cold tap on until
water flows.
Prior to operation of the water heater, ensure
water is flowing from hot tap.
GAS
Your motorhome is designed to operate using
either propane or butane liquefied petroleum
gas at 30m/bar. Gas can be obtained from your
motorhome dealer.
Your motorhome is designed to accept a
maximum 2 x 7.5kg gas bottles.
TYPES OF GAS
BUTANE
Butane is supplied in the U.K. in Green or Blue
bottles. All these have a male left hand thread
except for Camping Gaz, which has a special
female right hand, Calor, 7.5 kg and 15 kg
bottles have a special clip-on connection.
Continental bottles usually have a male left
hand thread similar, but not identical, to U.K.
butane.
Butane is suitable for use at temperatures
down to 2°C but will not work below that.
PROPANE
Propane is supplied in red, or partly red bottles
which have a female left hand threaded
connector.
Scandinavian countries use the same
connector.
Germany or Austria supply propane with a
male connection.
Propane will work at temperatures as low as -
40°C and is therefore suitable for all winter
caravanning.
CONNECTION
Make sure that heating, cooking appliances
and gas cylinders are switched off.
Ensure the correct regulator for the gas
chosen has been connected to the gas bottle.
The regulator is a governing device which
adapts the bottle pressure to one that suits the
equipment in the motorhome.
It is recommended that the regulator valve
should be fitted with an over-pressure release
valve to 150m/bar.
Note: Regulator valves should always be in the
‘OFF’ position when towing.
HOSES
Low pressure flexible hoses with a maximum
length of 700mm should be fitted between the
pressure regulator and the rigid pipework.
