Here you can find out how to cook in the Road House:
- Open the gas bottle (11kg) in the left compartment of the boot. On the gas bottle, turn the brass-coloured control knob to + or - to open or close it:
- Then also set the safety lever for the hob to the horizontal position (pot symbol). This is located behind the cover next to the rear seat:
- Open both glass covers, as the heat when cooking could cause the cover at the sink to shatter.
To ignite the gas hob, press the desired gas knob down and turn it at the same time, while using the small black button to ignite the flame.
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.
Warning
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.

Troubleshooting
No gas?
You should hear a faint hissing sound from the gas and also be able to smell the gas. If this is not the case, check the gas flow thoroughly from start to finish:
- Is the gas bottle full? Lift or weigh it: a completely full bottle weighs about 23 kg, an empty bottle about 12 kg.
- Is the gas bottle open? Turn it at least 2 turns towards the "+".
- Has the hose rupture protection been vented? Some models have a black button directly on the bottle valve. Press it firmly – you will hear a metallic click and this will release the air from the line.
- Is the grey safety lever in the kitchen open? It should be pointing towards the gas line to be open. There is usually a sticker showing which position is open.
Hob not igniting?
You should clearly hear the electric click from the igniter. If not, check that you have switched on the 12V circuit and that the battery is sufficiently charged.
If you still do not hear the click despite working power, the electric igniter may be faulty. In this case, you can carefully ignite the gas at the hob ring with a lighter.

Hob does not stay lit?
Press the gas knob in while turning it – you should now hear the gas flowing. Ignite now. Keep the gas knob pressed for a few seconds after lighting the gas. This will give you a stable flame.
