• This product is fueled by LPG. LPG is invisible, odorless, and flammable. An odorant 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.
• LPG is heavier than air and leaking LPG will sink to the lowest level possible. It can ignite by ignition sources including matches, lighters, sparks or open flames of any kind many feet away from the original leak. Use only LPG set up for vapor withdrawal.
• LPG should be stored or used in compliance with local ordinances and codes or with ANSI/ NFPA 58. Turn off LPG when not in use.

EXPLOSION - FIRE HAZARD

• Never store LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) near high heat, open flames, pilot lights, direct sunlight, other ignition sources or where temperatures exceed 120 degrees F (49°C).
• LPG is heavier than air and can accumulate in low places. If you smell gas, leave the area immediately.
• Never install or remove LPG cylinder while outdoor stove is lighted, near flame, pilot lights, other ignition sources or while outdoor stove is hot to touch.
• During lighting and operation, this product can be a source of ignition. Never use the stove in spaces that contain or may contain volatile or airborne combustibles, or products such as gasoline, solvents, paint thinner, dust particles or unknown chemicals. Minimum clearances from combustible materials: 24 inches from the sides and 48 inches from the top.
• Provide adequate clearances around air openings into the combustion chamber.

CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD

• This stove is a combustion appliance. All combustion appliances produce carbon monoxide (CO) during the combustion process. This product is designed to produce extremely 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 stove.
• 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!
• For outdoor use only.
• Never use inside house, camper, tent, vehicle or other unventilated or enclosed areas. This stove consumes air (oxygen). Do not use in unventilated or enclosed areas to avoid endangering your life.

SERVICE SAFETY

• Use only LPG set up for vapor withdrawal.
• Keep all connections and fittings clean. Always inspect gas cartridge, stove connections and "O" ring seal for damage, dirt and debris before attaching cartridge (Fig. 1). Replace if damaged or worn. Never use stove with damaged or worn seals.
  
  
• During set up, CHECK FOR LEAKS in one or more ways: Apply soapy water to connections. Bubbles indicate a leak. Listen for hiss of escaping gas. Feel for extreme cold. Smell for rotten egg odor. Never use a flame. Check that the connection is not cross-threaded and that it is tight. Perform another leak check. If there is still a leak, remove the cylinder and contact Coleman for service or repairs.
• Use as a cooking appliance only. Never alter in any way or use with any device or part not expressly approved by Coleman.
• Never use as a space heater.
