Safety behavior and practices
Ensuring a safe operating environment
• Suffocation through exhaust
gases. To ensure dissipation of exhaust
gases, operate the appliance outdoors only.
– Never use in enclosed spaces or tents or
breathe in the exhaust gases.
– If installing an awning, make sure that
the exhaust system terminates to the
outdoors.
– If you park the RV in an enclosed space,
such as a garage or repair shop:
· You must block the fuel supply.
· You must switch the appliance off at
the control panel.
• Use the appliance only with a functioning LP
gas and carbon monoxide detector installed
in the RV. For installation, operation and func-
tion test follow the manufacturer’s guidelines.
Consumer Safety Information
• Keep the air inlet and exhaust outlet free of
obstructions in order to ensure clean com-
bustion.
• Do not place articles on or against the ap-
pliance. Do not lean any objects against
the water heater’s access door or place any
foreign objects within 2 feet (61 cm) of the
access door.
• Do not use or store flammable materials near
the appliance.
• Do not spray aerosols in the vicinity of the
appliance while it is in operation.
• Do not modify the appliance.
Responsibilities of the operator
• Avoid possible serious health issues caused
by electromagnetic radiation. All persons
with a pacemaker are prohibited from open-
ing the access door and maintaining the
appliance during operation.
• The operator is responsible for the water
filled into the appliance and its quality.
• The use of upright gas cylinders from which
gas is taken in the gas phase is manda-
tory for the operation of gas regulators, gas
equipment and gas systems. Gas cylinders
from which gas is taken in the liquid phase
(e. g. for forklifts) must not be used, since
they would result in damage to the gas sys-
tem.
• For your own safety it is absolutely neces-
sary to have the complete gas installation
regularly checked by an expert (at least every
2 years). The vehicle owner is always respon-
sible for arranging the gas inspection.
