Technical Characteristics - Coleman Northern Nova 2555 Series User Manual

WARNING
• This product is fueled by propane gas. Propane
gas is invisible, odorless, and flammable. An odor-
ant is normally added to help detect leaks and
can be described as a "rotten egg" smell. The
odorant can fade over time so leaking gas is not
always detectable by smell alone.
• Propane gas is heavier than air and leaking pro-
pane will sink to the lowest level possible. It can
ignite by ignition sources including matches, light-
ers, sparks or open flames of any kind many feet
away from the original leak. Use only propane gas
set up for vapor withdrawal.
• Propane gas should be stored or used in compli-
ance with local ordinances and codes or with ANSI/
NFPA 58. Disconnect cylinder when not in use.
DANGER
• EXPLOSION - FIRE HAZARD
• Never store propane near high heat, open
flames, pilot lights, direct sunlight, other igni-
tion sources or where temperatures exceed
120 °F (49 °C).
• Propane is heavier than air and can accumu-
late in low places. If you smell gas, leave the
area immediately.

oxide (CO) during the combustion process.
This product is designed to produce extreme-
ly minute, non-hazardous amounts of CO if
used and maintained in accordance with all
warnings and instructions. Do not block air
flow into or out of the lantern.
• Carbon Monoxide (CO) poisoning produces
flu-like symptoms, watery eyes, headaches,
dizziness, fatigue and possibly death. You
can't see it and you can't smell it. It's an
invisible killer. If these symptoms are present
during operation of this product get fresh
air immediately!
