thread propane cylinder not exceeding 1 lb (See Fig.2). This appliance can also use a 20 lb propane cylinder with an alternate hose and
regulator assembly (not included). Please also refer to Section 2 for use of a 20 lb propane cylinder.

• Ensure that the gas container is fitted or changed in a well-ventilated location, preferably outdoors, away from any sources of ignition such
as naked flames, pilots, electric fires and away from other people.
• Keep gas containers away from heat and flame. Do not place on a stove or any other hot surface.
• Refillable containers are to be used only in the upright position so as to ensure proper fuel withdrawal. Failure to adhere to this may cause
liquid discharge from the gas container resulting in a dangerous operating conditions.
• Do not try to remove the gas container whilst the appliance is in operation.
• The gas container must be disconnected from the appliance after use or when in storage.
Light back
• In the event of light back (where the flame burns back and ignites inside the burner or venturi housing), immediately turn off the gas supply
by firstly closing the control valve on the gas cylinder and then the appliance valve. After the flame is extinguished, remove the regulator
and check the condition of the seal; replace the seal if in doubt. Re-light the appliance.
• Should the flame persistently light back, return the product to your authorized repair agent.
Leaks
• If there is a gas leak on your appliance (smell of gas), immediately turn off the gas supply by turning the control knob clockwise to the "OFF"
position and take it into a flame free location where the gas leak may be detected and stopped. If you wish to check for gas leaks on your
appliance, do it outside. Do not try to detect gas leaks using a flame; use soapy water.
How to check the appliance is connected to the gas supply in a sound fashion
• It is important that all gas connections have been correctly connected to prevent any gas leaks.
• The correct way is to smear the joint, i.e. where the gas container connects to the appliance, with soapy water. Turn the appliance control knob
slightly anti-clockwise to turn the gas on. If bubbles form, then there is a gas leak. Immediately turn the gas off and disconnect the gas supply
from the appliance. Check that all the connections are properly fitted. Check that the seal is in place and in good condition before connecting
the gas supply. Re-check with soapy water after refitting the gas supply.
• If a gas leak persists, return the product to your local dealer for inspection/repair.
