lp-gaS Safety tIpS
LP-Gas is one of the safest and most reliable
fuels available on the market when handled
properly. LP-Gas, however, does have a great
explosive “potential” if handled improperly.
Danger is minimized by becoming familiar
with and following a few safety precautions,
and by learning how to properly operate LP-
Gas appliances. Use of LP-Gas requires the
responsibility to enforce extra safety measures.
The motorhome is equipped with many
LP-Gas operated appliances because it is a
convenient and efcient source of fuel. LP-Gas
appliances must be operated and maintained
in accordance with the product manufacturer’s
instructions.
The National Propane Gas Association
(NPGA) has a special service program
offered called GAS® (Gas Appliance System)
Check. The GAS® Check program is aimed
at educating users about the convenience
of propane with safety and peace of mind.
For information on the NPGA Gas® Check
program, call [phone] or visit www.

Maintenance and Safety Tips for the
LP-Gas Refrigerator and Furnace:
Have the refrigerator and furnace
systems inspected annually by an
authorized server center.
Have the venting system checked for
blockage before using the refrigerator
or furnace for the rst time each season.
Insects may have built nests that will
obstruct ow.
At the rst indication of incomplete
combustion (yellow ame instead of a
blue ame or soot is present) contact a
service technician immediately. Improper
combustion can cause carbon monoxide
buildup, which is potentially fatal!
Maintenance and Safety Tips for the LP-
Gas Range:
Burner ame should be a blue color,
which indicates complete combustion. If
not, have the unit serviced by a qualied
technician.
DO NOT cover the oven bottom with
foil. Air circulation will be restricted.
Never use LP-Gas ranges or ovens for
heating purposes.
Always have pot handles turned inward.
Ensure children understand never to turn
or play with the knobs on the front of the
LP-Gas range.
