3.5.2 Gas bottles
X Propane gas is capable of gasification up to -42 °C, whereas butane gas gas-
ifies at 0 °C. Below these temperatures no gas pressure is available. Butane
gas is unsuitable for use in winter.
X Regularly inspect the gas tube fitted to the gas bottle connection for tight-
ness. The gas tube must not have any tears and must not be porous. Have the
gas tube replaced by an authorised specialist workshop no later than
10 years after the manufacturing date. The operator of the gas system must
see to it that the parts are replaced.
X Due to its function and construction, the gas bottle compartment is a space
which is open to the exterior. Never cover or block the standard forced ven-
tilation. Otherwise leaking gas cannot be dispersed to the outside.
X Do not use the gas bottle compartment as storage space as it is not moisture-
proof.
X Secure the gas bottle compartment in order to prevent unauthorised per-
sons opening it. To do so lock the access.
X The regulator tap on the gas bottle must be accessible.
X Only connect gas-operated devices (e.g. gas grill) which have been designed
for a gas pressure of 30 mbar.
X The exhaust gas pipe must be fitted tightly to the heating system and to the
vent and must be sealed. The exhaust gas pipe must not show any evidence
of damage.
X Exhaust fumes must be able to escape into the atmosphere unhindered and
fresh air must be able to enter unhindered. Therefore keep the waste gas
vents and intake openings clean and free (e.g. of snow and ice). No snow
walls or aprons may be allowed to lie against the vehicle.
X Gas bottles are only to be transported within the designated gas bottle com-
partment.
X Place gas bottles vertically in the gas bottle compartment.
X Tie down gas bottles so that they are unable to turn or tilt.
X If the gas bottles are not connected to the gas tube, always place the protec-
tive cap on top.
X Close the regulator tap on the gas bottle before the gas pressure regulator or
gas tube are removed from the gas bottle.
X Use your hands only to connect the gas pressure regulator or the gas tube to
the gas bottles. Do not use any tools.
X Only use special gas pressure regulators with a safety valve designed for
vehicle use. Other gas pressure regulators are not permitted and cannot
meet the demanding requirements.
X Use the defroster (Eis-Ex) for the gas pressure regulator at temperatures
below 5 °C.
X Use only 11 kg or 5 kg gas bottles. Camping gas bottles with a built-in reflux
valve (blue bottle with max. 2.5 or 3 kg content) are permitted in exceptional
cases with a safety valve.
X Use the shortest possible tube lengths (150 cm max.) for external gas bottles.
X Never block the ventilation openings in the floor under the gas bottles.
