DANGER: DO NOT smoke while changing cylinders or working on
your propane system. See the use, danger and warning instructions
throughout this manual for the propane system.
Propane Cylinders
1. The propane cylinder must be painted with a light color, such as white or silver plate,
to reflect heat and light.
2. Rust, scratches, and/or dents can affect the safety of the cylinder. The D.O.T. requires
that a visual inspection be made prior to each filling.
3. Any cylinder that has been exposed to fire, leaks or appears to be damaged should not
be refilled.
4. A propane cylinder must always be placed in an upright position. Assure that the
cylinder is secured in place prior to moving the vehicle.
5. The D.O.T. requires that propane cylinders be inspected, certified and labeled when
they are twelve years old. (The number of years for certification may vary in your
area.) Following the initial twelve-year period, the cylinder must be certified every
five years.
6. The valve of the cylinder must be CLOSED at all times except when it is connected
to the recreation vehicle propane system or is being refilled.
7. Inspect the cylinder at regular intervals. If there is a problem, have it evaluated by a
qualified technician and discard it, if necessary. Verify with your local propane dealer
that all required inspections and certifications have been completed on the propane
cylinder within the correct time period before refilling the cylinder.
