SAFETY AND PRECAUTIONS
Unlikehomes,the amountofoxygen supply is
limited due to the sizeof the recreational vehicle,
and proper ventilation when using the cooking
appliance(s) avoids dangers of asphyxiation. It is
especially important that cooking appliances not
be used for comfort heating, as the danger of
asphyxiation is greater when the appliance is
used for long periods of time. Failure to comply
could result in death or serious injury.
PROPANE GAS LEAKS
Check propane gas system for leaks yearly, or
as necessary.
Thefollowing procedures are notedona label,
located in the vehicle near the range area. If you
