How do I safely use the cooktop, oven, and range hood in my trailer?

Please take a moment to watch the video below for step-by-step guidance, or follow the step-by-step written directions.

If you need additional help, our After Sales team at Escape Trailer will be happy to assist you. You can submit a support ticket using this form. 

1. Prepare the Range Hood (Optional)

  • Go to the outside of your trailer.

  • Locate the two knobs on each side of the range hood vent.

  • Use your thumbs to flick them open slightly—just enough for the fan to draw out cooking fumes.

  • If you don’t have a range hood, open a window or use a max fan for ventilation.

 

2. Turn On Ventilation Inside

  • Go inside the trailer and locate the face of the range hood.

  • Find the light button (turns on the hood light) and the fan button (turns on the hood fan).

  • Press the fan button if you want the hood fan running, or use a max fan instead to reduce noise.

3. Turn On the Oven/Range

  • Locate the on/off capacitive touch button on the oven face.

  • Press it once to power on the oven (no need to push—just rest your finger on it).

  • Open the glass cover above the burners.

 

4. Using the Burners

  • Identify which burner you want to use.

  • Push the corresponding knob in and turn it to high (or desired gas level).

  • Hold the knob for a few seconds until the burner stays lit.

  • Adjust the heat by turning the knob between low and high.

  • When finished, turn the knob to off and allow the burners to cool.

  • Close the glass cover.

5. Using the Oven

  • Press the oven button on the front to turn on oven controls.

  • Press the temp button and use the +5 / -5 buttons to set the desired temperature in Fahrenheit (e.g., 360°F). Wait for the display to stop blinking.

  • Locate the oven knob on the far right. Push it in and turn to pilot.

  • Check the back of the oven for a small flame. Once visible, turn the knob to auto.

  • The oven will automatically heat to your set temperature.

  • When finished cooking:

    • Press the oven button to turn off the oven controls.

    • Turn the oven knob to off.

 

6. Final Steps

  • Confirm that all grates and burners are cooled.

  • Replace any grates over the range if removed.

  • Press the on/off button again to ensure the oven is completely off.

  • If the range hood vent was opened, return outside and snap it closed at the corners.
