GAS (LPG) WARNINGS
• LP gas is flammable and hazardous if handled
improperly. Please review the characteristics
before using any LP gas product.
• Propane Characteristics: Flammable, explosive
under pressure, heavier than air, and settles in pools
in low areas. In its natural state, propane has no
odor. For your safety, an odorant is typically added.
Contact with propane could burn the skin.
• Propane is extremely flammable and hazardous
if handled improperly.
• Cylinders must be stored outdoors in a
well-ventilated area out of reach of children.
• Disconnected cylinders must have threaded
valve plugs tightly installed and must not be in
a building, garage or any other enclosed area.
• Never use a propane cylinder with a damaged
body, valve, collar or footing.
• Dented or rusted propane cylinders may be
hazardous and should be checked by your
propane gas supplier.
• LP gas tank must be arranged for vapour withdrawal.
• The LP gas tank must have a tank collar to
protect the tank valve.
• The LP gas tank should not be dropped or
handled roughly.
• Never store your LP gas tank where temperatures
can reach over 52°C(125°F).
• Do not store the LP gas cylinder in direct sunlight
or near a source of heat or combustion.
• Never keep a filled LP gas tank in a hot car or
car trunk. Heat will cause the gas pressure to
increase, which may open the relief valve and
allow gas to escape.
• Place dust cap on valve outlet whenever the LP
gas tank is not in use. Only install the type of
dust cap on the LP gas tank valve outlet that is
provided with the LP gas tank valve. Other types
of caps or plugs may result in leakage of propane.
• Do not store a spare LP gas cylinder under or
near this appliance.
• Never fill the LP gas cylinder beyond 80% full.
• LP gas cylinders should be filled only by a
certified LP gas dealer.
