experience a propane "freeze-up," close
the main valve and wait at least fifteen
(15) minutes before trying again. Refer to
the regulator manufacturer's
manual.
4. Listen carefully - a "hissing" sound longer
than one second may indicate a propane
leak. If you feel there may be a leak
present, close the valve and contact your
dealer or qualified propane technician for
repair assistance.
Replace all protective covers and caps on the
propane system after filling. Make sure the
valve is closed and the compartment door is
securely latched.
Maintenance
Propane gas is normally non-corrosive - you
need not worry about the inside of your
container. However, the outside should be
kept free from rust by a periodic coat of paint
in a light reflective color. Rust, scratches
and/or dents can affect the safety of the
cylinder. Inspect the cylinder at regular
intervals. If there is a problem, have it
evaluated by a qualified technician and
discard it. DOT requires that a visual
inspection be made prior to each filling.
