Requirements for Safe Energy Use
Since the appliances and entertainment devices installed in your motorhome require portions of the propane
and electrical system for proper operation, follow all safety-related messages concerning safe propane and
electrical system use.
Propane Requirements
In order to function properly, gas appliances will require a safe and reliable source of propane gas (LP). Your
motorhome is furnished with a propane system that is designed to deliver an ample supply of propane for the
water heater, furnace, and all factory-installed gas-fired appliances.
Propane gas pressures are factory set to 11 inches of water column. Do not adjust or bypass the gas regulator
or modify any component of the propane system. If you experience problems with your gas appliances or
any propane system component, promptly have a qualified propane service technician inspect the propane
system make all necessary repairs.
Propane Safety
Familiarize yourself and follow all propane gas safety procedures listed within this document, the TMC
Propane Gas System Guide, your Owner’s Manual, and the documentation associated with all gas and
electrical appliances of your motorhome.
IF YOU SMELL PROPANE GAS
1. Extinguish any open ames and all smoking materials.
2. Shut off the propane supply at the container valve(s) or propane supply connection.
3. Do not touch electrical switches.
4. Open doors and other ventilating openings.
5. Leave the area until the odor clears.
6. Have the propane system checked and leakage source corrected before using again.
Ignition of ammable vapors could lead to a re or explosion and result in death or serious injury.
DANGERDANGER
Turn OFF all pilot lights, appliances, and their igniters (see operating instructions) while the
motorhome is traveling or in motion, and before refueling the motorhome’s fuel tanks and/or
propane containers.

SAFETY
Electrical Requirements
Most, if not all of the devices described in this guide require electricity for proper operation. Control circuits
and igniters of gas appliances require 12 volts DC, while entertainment components generally require 120
volts AC. For safe and reliable operation, your motorhome must be able to supply electrical energy to your
appliances and entertainment devices.
For 12 volt DC power, the main battery switch must be ON. Operating the generator or being connected to a
shore power source will supply 120 volts AC as needed.
Make sure the propane/carbon monoxide (LP/CO) detector and alarm is always kept in good
working order. Test this device regularly and immediately replace if it is not functioning properly.
The LP/CO detector operates on house 12 volts DC and is only operational when the main battery
switch is ON.
CAUTIONCAUTION
NOTICENOTICE
The electrical system of the motorhome must be in good working condition; being able to supply
both 12 volts DC and 120 volts AC, in order to operate the appliances and entertainment devices
installed in your motorhome.
NOTICENOTICE
It is possible to overload the electrical system if too many electrical appliances and entertainment
devices are operating at the same time, particularly if the electrical power is being supplied only by
the generator. Be familiar with the power demand (in watts) of the devices being operated and do
not exceed the power capacity (in watts) of the generator.

THOR MOTOR COACH | MADE TO FIT
Kitchen and Appliances
Introduction
One of the first things you will notice when stepping into a roomy Thor
Motor Coach motorhome is its excellent appointments of appliances
and entertainment systems. Being able to take all the conveniences
of home with you while experiencing unique places and events is
what makes motorhome travel so compelling, enjoyable, and relaxing.
Whether you enjoy your morning coffee brewed over an open campfire,
prepared with your favorite electric coffee maker, or warmed with a
microwave oven, your TMC motorhome is well equipped for the task
and ‘Made to Fit’ your traveling lifestyle.
Within this guide is important safety and operational information that will
allow you to maximize the features and conveniences of the devices that
truly make your TMC motorhome, your ‘home on wheels.’
Kitchen Made to Travel
As in your own home, the kitchen of your TMC motorhome is often
the central location for many family activities. The appliances of your
motorhome have been carefully selected to provide you with maximized
food preparation conveniences, while ‘right-sizing’ the appliances to
proportionally fit the floorplan of your particular motorhome. Several
TMC floorplans take kitchen conveniences a step further by providing
an additional outdoor food preparation area, which enhances out-of-
doors family and other activities.
Your Thor motorhome is well appointed
with modern, convenient appliances
KITCHEN AND APPLIANCES
Do not store combustible materials in this area (kitchen and
cabinets). Failure to comply could result in re or personal
injury.
DANGERDANGER
Be cautious when opening cabinets after travel. Contents may
have shifted and could inadvertently fall out.
CAUTIONCAUTION
Cabinets
Not only is your mobile kitchen well appointed with appliances, it is
well equipped with generous cabinet storage for food, cooking utensils,
cleaning supplies, and portable appliances. Some cabinets feature
pull-out storage trays and shelf dividers. All have door catches that stay

closed while you’re underway. As a safety precaution, cabinet contents
can shift during travel. Please ensure that all cabinet doors are closed
and latched before traveling to prevent the contents from falling out,
causing possible injury or damage.
Drawers are designed to ensure that they do not open inadvertently
during travel. To open the drawers, pull out until catch releases. Some
cabinets have a wire-frame or wooden pull-out pantry. To extend this
pantry, remove the travel lock pin at the bottom track and pull the pantry
rack outward. To prepare for travel, push the pantry rack in and reinsert
the travel lock pin.
NOTICENOTICE
To clean the countertops of your motorhome:
A simple wipe with soapy water or disinfectant spray is usually
all that is needed to keep the surface clean and looking new.
Although the materials are durable, they can be damaged with
sharp and/or hot objects. Use cutting boards for slicing and
dicing and protective heat pads for hot pots and pans.
Countertops
Your mobile kitchen is designed with countertops that provide durable
food preparation surfaces. Countertops are made of laminate or solid-
surface materials similar to those found in your home. Both surface
types provide easy-care and low maintenance. Some kitchen floorplans
are supplied with additional folding countertops, which further increases
food preparation surface area, while conveniently stowing away when
not needed.
RANGE AND SINK COVERS
Thor motorhomes are well appointed
with spacious and durable countertops
KITCHEN AND APPLIANCES
Flip-up range covers provide additional
countertop space
Slide-out pantry rack
For your food preparation convenience, the kitchen sink may be
equipped with a solid cover, made of the same material as the
countertop. Additionally, several range models are supplied with a range
cover that provides additional counter space when needed.
When opened, the range cover acts as a grease and splash guard. To
raise the range cover, lift and push back until it snaps into place. To
return the cover to its counter flush position, lift straight up to disengage
the holding mechanism, and return it to the original position.
NOTE: For secure and safe travel, ensure all kitchen cabinet doors are closed and latched to prevent contents
from falling out during travel.

• The vehicle must be level and stabilized.
• Do not violate manufacturers’ instructions on required
clearances for cooking appliances during use.
• Do not store cooking appliances until cool to the touch.
Can lead to a re and explosion and result in death or serious injury.
WARNINGWARNING
Kitchen Sink and Faucet
The stainless steel kitchen sink installed in your motorhome is much like
the one in your home. It may be a single or dual-bowl design and equipped
with a sink cover board which, when in place, increases countertop space.
Only waste water should be disposed of down the kitchen drain. Be sure
to always use the catch basket on the drain. Your motorhome kitchen
sink drain DOES NOT have a garbage disposal unit. Never put grease,
food, or other solids or semi-solids down the drains of your motorhome
because you may clog the drain and/or waste water holding tank.
The faucet and sinks installed in your motorhome operate just like those
in your home. As long as there is water system pressure, provided by
the on-demand pump or city source, hot and cold water is conveniently
available for washing and food preparation.
To operate the faucet, rotate the hot and cold handles for desired water flow
rate. To operate the sprayer, pull out on the head of the faucet. Press the
button on top to release the water. To reinsert the hose, gently guide it back
to the original position.

Cooktops and Ovens
GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR PROPANE AND GAS-BURNER APPLIANCES
Propane Gas Use
Most RV cooktops, ranges, and refrigerators use propane (LP) gas or a combination of gas/electric to
operate. Some appliances may have electronic gas ignition, while others may require a pilot light to be lit
before operating.
KITCHEN AND APPLIANCES
When equipped, the exterior kitchen unit provides a convenient outdoor food preparation and clean-up
station. The outside kitchen unit is accessed by an exterior compartment door, usually located at the rear,
curb-side of the motorhome. Compared model-to-model, the kitchen unit may contain different features, but
all will have a sink, with hot and cold running water, a refrigerator, and a GFCI 120 volts alternating current
(AC) receptacle. Also located along the right-side rear, some motorhome models provide a convenient liquid
petroleum (LP) gas connection for a portable grill or other gas appliance.
Use caution whenever a LP gas appliance is connected and in-use. Inspect the gas supply hose for any
cracks or damage. Do not use if damaged in any way. Inspect the burners, they could have shifted out-of-
place during transport. Keep the appliance well away from the side of the motorhome or other flammable
materials. Always turn OFF the gas supply when appliance is not in use. Instruct children to stay clear of hot
devices and allow adequate time to cool before stowing away any cooking device or appliance.
PROPANE GAS IS HIGHLY VOLATILE AND EXTREMELY EXPLOSIVE. DO NOT USE MATCHES OR A
FLAME TO TEST FOR LEAKS. USE ONLY APPROVED PROPANE GAS LEAK TESTING SOLUTIONS
FOR LEAK DETECTION.
Unapproved solutions can damage copper tubing and brass ttings. Never attempt to adjust
propane gas regulators. Only qualied personnel should perform any maintenance or repair to the
propane gas system.
DANGERDANGER
DO NOT USE GAS APPLIANCES FOR COMFORT HEATING.
CAN LEAD TO CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING, WHICH CAN LEAD TO DEATH OR SERIOUS
INJURY.
DANGERDANGER
PREVENT ANY FLAMMABLE MATERIALS, SUCH AS CLOTHING, PAPER OR CLOTH TOWELS,
CURTAINS OR SHADES, ETC., FROM BECOMING CLOSE TO OPEN FLAME OR HOT SURFACES.
DANGERDANGER

9
THOR MOTOR COACH | MADE TO FIT
All control knobs must be turned to OFF when not in use. Fire and/or burning hazard may occur if
a burner is accidentally left ON.
DO NOT operate range or cooktop if it is damaged or not working properly.
In case of emergency or gas detection, know where the main LP gas shutoff valve is located and
know how to TURN OFF gas supply.
If any burner should extinguish (after initial lighting or due to accidental blow-out), turn all burner
knobs to OFF and WAIT 5 MINUTES before attempting to re-light burner.
DO NOT touch top burners, burner grates, or other areas near top burners during and after use. Do
not let clothing or other flammable materials contact top burners or areas near top burners until
they have had sufficient time to cool.
Be sure that glass cooking utensils are safe for use on the cooktop. Only certain kinds of glass
utensils are suitable for surface or top burner use without breaking due to the sudden changes in
temperature.
Never leave top burners unattended. A boil-over could result and cause smoking and greasy
spillovers that could ignite.
Turn pan handles inward, but not over other top burners. This reduces the chance of burns due to
bumping the pan.
DO NOT leave children alone or unattended in area where range or cooktop is in use. Never allow
anyone to sit, stand, or climb on any part of the range cooktop. They could be burned or injured.
DO NOT heat unopened containers. They could explode. The hot contents may cause burns and
container particles may cause injury.
Replace range cover only after burners and grate have sufficiently cooled.
DO NOT operate burners with control knob set to the LITE position. Damage to the ignition module
and burner electrodes may result.
Top burner flame size should be adjusted so it DOES NOT extend beyond the edge of the cooking
utensil.
WARNINGWARNING
Follow all safety instructions when using LP Gas appliances and the LP Gas system of your
motorhome. The risk of fire and/or explosion and bodily injury exists with improper use of LP gas
or any other flammable substances.

Typical 3-Burner LP Gas Range and
Oven
Gas Range and Oven Combination
Similar to the illustration to the right, your motorhome may be equipped
with a two or three-burner range and oven combination. This unit
requires a pilot light to be lit in order to operate the oven. The oven
is designed this way in order to reduce the possibility of unintended
ignition.
TO LIGHT THE OVEN PILOT
• Ensure that the LP gas supply is ON at the LP tank.
• Turn the oven control knob to the PILOT position and push IN.
• Light the pilot with a lighter.
• Hold in the knob for at least 30 seconds until the pilot flame is well
established.
THE PILOT WILL NOT COME ON
• Check to determine if the main gas valve is turned ON.
• Is there LP gas in the tank?
• Check for blockage of the orifice, pilot assembly or pilot line.
• Check for kinks in the pilot gas line.
PILOT WILL NOT STAY ON
• Hold oven knob, in the pilot position, for up to 30 seconds.
• Check gas supply; ensure the main valve is ON and there is LP in the tank.
• Confirm that thermocouple is fully inserted into the thermocouple holder.
• Pilot flame out of position; pilot flame is not engulfing thermocouple. Pilot assembly needs to be adjusted
so that pilot flame is engulfing thermocouple.
NOTICENOTICE
Become familiar with all safety-related warnings and instructions whenever a propane appliance
or device is in use. Routinely, check for gas leaks. If gas is ever detected, either by smell or by an
alarm, know the safety and evacuation procedures.
Any gas leaks have the potential of causing explosion or re, resulting in severe injury or death.
Always have gas leaks repaired immediately by a qualied and certied technician.
Follow all propane-related warning labels afxed throughout your motorhome and included in the
manufacturer’s owner’s manual for each appliance. For further information on the Propane (LP) Gas
System of your motorhome, please refer the Propane Systems Guide, available on the Thor Motor
Coach website.
NOTE: The pilot gas line will
remain open as long as the
pilot is lit and the thermocouple
senses flame. If the pilot goes
out, the magnet will drop out and
shut off gas flow to the pilot.

OVEN OPERATION
• After the pilot is lit, rotate the oven control knob counter-clockwise to the desired temperature setting or
to BROIL. The oven will pre-heat in approximately 15 minutes. For best results, always allow adequate
time for the oven to come to temperature.
• To extinguish the oven burner, rotate the oven control knob clockwise to PILOT/PUSH/HOLD position.
The oven burner will extinguish, but the pilot will remain lit.
USING THE BROILER
• Ensure the pilot is lit.
• Push and rotate the oven control knob to the BROIL position.
• Center the cookpan under the broiler flame. Move and turn food frequently for even browning and
cooking.
• When cooking is complete, rotate the oven control knob clockwise to PILOT/PUSH/HOLD position.
• For complete oven shut-down push in the oven control knob and rotate clockwise to the OFF position.
Pilot should extinguish. For safety, visually check to confirm that the pilot did, in fact, extinguish.

ignites.
3. To extinguish the top burner flame, turn the appropriate burner knob
clockwise to OFF.
LIGHTING TOP BURNERS WITH ELECTRONIC IGNITION
1. Turn the appropriate burner knob counterclockwise to ON or LITE. This will automatically activate the
ignition system, and all burners will begin to spark repeatedly. This is the “clicking” sound you will hear.
2. The burner will light within five seconds. Once the burner is lit, turn the knob counterclockwise to the
desired setting.
3. To extinguish the top burner flame, turn the appropriate burner knob clockwise to OFF.
4. If 12 volts DC power is not available to the ignition module for any reason, top burners may be lit
manually (see manual lighting instructions above).

Gas Cooktops
The kitchen of your motorhome may be equipped with a 2 or 3-burner
gas cooktop (similar to the illustration here), and instead of a gas oven,
your kitchen may be equipped with either a microwave or a combination
microwave/convection oven (see microwave oven section).
If so equipped, your gas cooktop operates similarly to the gas range
burners described previously. Please note all LP gas-related safety
instructions when using this or any gas appliance.
TO OPERATE THE GAS BURNERS
• Ensure that the LP gas supply valve at the tank is ON.
• Push in the burner control knob and rotate to the LITE position. The
electronic igniter should begin “clicking.”
• After burner ignites, rotate knob to adjust flame to the desired level.
TO TURN OFF GAS BURNER

• Before traveling, turn OFF the LP gas supply valve at the tank.
