The gas hose between the pressure
controller and the gas installation must be
checked regularly. If there is any porosity
or an actual leak, it must be replaced
immediately.
The new hose must be in accordance
with the standard printed on the old hose.
The forced ventilation of the gas cylinder
box may not be blocked (e.g. by slush,
cleaning rags etc.) to ensure that the gas
can escape if there is a leak.
The forced ventilation must be inspected
at regular intervals!

The gas distributor block is located in the
kitchen block. Each consumer has its own
fast-acting closure valve there which opens
or closes the gas supply. The valves are
marked with pictograms on the knob.
A = Heating
B = Refrigerator
C = Gas cooker
Where the gas distributor is installed in
vertical position (for example see picture),
the knobs are open when they are in the
horizontal position; where the distributor is
installed horizontally, they are open in
vertical position. All gas devices are doubly
secured. Please also note the attached
operating instructions.
If you do not use your mobile home for
several days, you should always close your
gas cylinders.
The following safety instructions must be

installation.
The system may under no circumstances
be connected to the municipal or long-

Every time the gas installation screw con-

must be conducted on the installation by
authorised, skilled personnel.
The gas devices may be operated with
propane gas throughout the year, but
