FOR OUTDOOR USE ONLY

3) Do not expose the propane cylinder to excessive heat.
4) Always inspect the lantern, propane cylinder and connectors for damage, debris or dirt before attaching the cylinder to the stove.
5) Always attach/detach the propane cylinder away from any open flame or pilot light and only after the lantern has cooled.
6) Always inspect the burner holes for obstructions prior to operation. Do not operate if any blockage is found.
7) Do not use or operate if either the lantern or propane cylinder is found to be damaged.
8) Always disconnect the propane cylinder when not in use and/or transporting. Store in and upright position and in a cool, well ventilated area.
9) Be sure to tightly secure all connections to the propane cylinder prior to usage.
10) Absolutely never operate the lantern near any flammable liquids or vapors and keep all flammable or combustible materials beyond the
clearance zone as indicated on the back panel.
11) Discontinue operation and close valve if:
• Ambient temperature drops below-10ºF.

• Lighting cannot be performed quickly and easily.
• Combustion becomes unstable or there are repeated flame-outs.
12) Absolutely do not use as a space heater, or in a tent.

CONNECTING THE FUEL CYLINDER:

1) Use only 16.4 oz propane cylinders as approved by the United States Department of Transportation.
2) Make sure the valve knob is turned off (twist in a clockwise direction).
3) Make sure the rubber seal is clean, undamaged, and in its proper centered position. The rubber seal is part of the valve adapter assembly and
the cylinder connection is to be made to the underside of the valve adapter assembly.
4) Screw the propane gas cylinder onto the lantern valve adapter. Hand tighten only.
5) Apply soapy water to the connection to check for leakage. (Leaking gas will form bubbles).
