Propane Detector
All recreation vehicles with a propane
system require a propane leak detection
device (Fig. 35) for safety protection. A
converter or auxiliary battery is required to
supply 12-volt DC energy to operate the leak
detector. Carefully read, understand and
follow the information supplied by the
propane detector manufacturer which is
supplied with your trailer. Consult with your independent, authorized dealer and/or visit
the manufacturer’s website at www.mtiindustries.com if you have any questions on the
operation or maintenance of this detector.
I
WARNING: For your safety, make sure that the propane detector is
properly maintained and functioning. The detector requires 12-volt DC
energy through the converter or from an auxiliary battery to operate.
Without a proper energy source, the detector will not work and you will
not be warned of leaking propane.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
General
The electrical system in your trailer consists of 120-volt AC
(alternating current) and 12-volt DC (direct current) circuits
and components. All installations are made in compliance
with safety requirements of ANSI standard A.1192,
National Electric Code, and Canadian Standards
Association.
All trailers will have 30-amp service pre-wired into the breaker box.
Caution: Power surges experienced while plugged in at a campground could
potentially damage electronic component parts in your recreation vehicle. Damage
from power surges are not covered by your Jayco warranty. Consult the component
part manufacturer’s owner’s manual and/or your independent, authorized dealer
for recommendations on power surge protection.
