Do's and Don'ts 3

Do's and Don'ts

Warning. Not following this can lead to bad results.

Caution. You really should follow this to avoid bad results.

Don't do it. Doing this can result in injury, severe damage, or death.

Information, cautions, and warnings

Level Item Comment

SEAT BELTS Use only forward facing seats equipped with factory installed seat belts while the vehicle is in

motion. All passengers must be seated in these seats only, with the seat belts fastened while

the vehicle is in motion.

TV Turn the TV off and stow it while the vehicle is in motion.

TV The flat screen TV should not be stored inside the Roadtrek in cold temperatures. Remove it to

reduce the chance of damage from the cold. Check the Owner's Manual for the TV for storage

and operating temperatures.

Do's and Don'ts 4

TV To remove the TV, remove the four mounting bolts on the back of the TV mounting bracket

and remove the RCA cables, power supply cable and antenna cable.

PROPANE Do not store propane tanks inside your vehicle. Propane tanks are equipped with safety

devices which relieve excessive pressure by discharging gas to the atmosphere.

PROPANE Do not refuel the propane tank to more than 80% of its capacity.

PROPANE The propane tank valve must be closed and ALL PILOT LIGHTS, APPLIANCES, AND THEIR

IGNITERS, MUST BE TURNED OFF during refueling of the motor fuel tank and/or the propane

fuel tank. Only qualified personnel should refuel your propane tank.

PROPANE Purchase propane from a reputable propane facility. Contaminated propane is a common

cause of system failure and is not covered under any warranty.

PROPANE The BBQ quick disconnect is regulated to 10 P.S.I. Please ensure that all devices connected to

this are either rated for “high pressure” or have their own regulator. Many grills sold in the

United States are "low pressure" (1/2 P.S.I.) and will require an additional regulator to step the

pressure down to a useable level. If hooked directly to the BBQ quick disconnect they will be a

severe fire hazard.

should not be used inside your vehicle. Use of this type of equipment inside your vehicle may

cause a fire or asphyxiation.
