17.6 Gas supply in European countries<br />
In Europe, there are several different connection systems for gas bottles. It<br />
is not always possible to fill or exchange your gas bottles in a foreign<br />
country. Get information about the connection system in the country you<br />
are travelling to before embarking on your journey, e.g. at a motoring club<br />
or in the trade press.<br />
General tips<br />
Always observe the following instructions:<br />
Only go on vacation with completely filled gas bottles.<br />
<br />
Use all of the gas bottles' capacity.<br />
<br />
Take along adapter sets (available in camping supply stores) for filling gas<br />
<br />
bottles in foreign countries and for connecting the gas pressure regulator<br />
to foreign gas bottles.<br />
During the cold time of the year observe filling with propane gas component<br />
<br />
(butane does not gas below 0 °C).<br />
Use blue bottles from the firm Campingaz (distributed world-wide). Only<br />
<br />
use gas bottles with safety valves.<br />
When bottles from other countries are used, check the gas bottle compartments<br />
to see if the gas bottles fit into them. Gas bottles from other countries<br />
<br />
do not always display the same size as your own gas bottles.<br />
17.7 Toll regulations in European countries<br />
Many European countries have introduced a mandatory toll system. The toll<br />
regulations and how they are collected vary greatly from country to country.<br />
Nevertheless, ignorance is no excuse. Penalties can be quite severe.<br />
As is the case with traffic regulations, the vehicle driver is required to be<br />
familiar with the toll formalities before starting out on a trip. For example, in<br />
Austria the vignette does not meet the toll requirements for motorhomes that<br />
weigh more than 3.5 t. There, a so-called "Go-Box" must be obtained and<br />
charged.<br />
Contact your automobile club or the Internet for further information.<br />
Windscreens with solar filters can affect the functioning of automatic toll<br />
collection systems (e.g. Go Box). This must be taken into account when<br />
acquiring the appropriate device (e.g. Split Go Box).<br />
