Here you will find all the necessary steps to cook in your Travel Home:
- Turn on the gas bottle (2.8kg) at the back in the boot. It is located in the rear cupboard on the back left, in the lowest compartment (lift the cover and unscrew the white cap).
- Also open the grey lever below the fridge, behind the interior table on the side of the rear seat bench (set it to horizontal):
- Open both glass covers.
- Turn on the gas at the hob and ignite it with the black button to the left.
Lighting the gas stove can sometimes take several attempts and/or seconds.
This is because when the gas pipe is empty, it must first fill up completely before propane gas can escape from the stove.
It is quite normal to smell a slight odor of propane gas before the stove ignites.
Attention
- After cooking and especially when driving, always close the shut-off valves and the gas bottle!
- Please also note that, for safety reasons, the gas compartment must not be used as storage space.
- A little tip when cooking: retract the window blinds and ensure ventilation.
Troubleshooting
No gas?
You should be able to hear a slight hiss of the gas flow and also smell the gas. If not, check the gas flow again from start to finish:
- Is the gas bottle full? Lift it or weigh it: a completely full bottle weighs about 6.4kg, an empty bottle about 3.7kg.
- Is the gas bottle open? Turn it at least 2 turns towards "+".
- Is the grey safety lever in the kitchen open? It must be in the direction of the gas line to be open. Usually, there is a sticker showing which position is open.
Stove not igniting?
You should clearly hear the click of the electric igniter. If not, check if you have switched on the 12V circuit and if the battery is sufficiently charged.
If you still don't hear the click despite working power, the electric igniter may be defective. In this case, you can carefully ignite the gas at the stove ring with a lighter.

Stove won't stay on?
Press the gas knob while turning it – you should now hear the gas flowing. Ignite now. Keep the gas knob pressed for a few more seconds after igniting the gas. This will give you a stable flame.
