WARNING
!
TRANSPORTATION AND STORAGE:
PROPANE GAS IS HEAVIER THAN AIR, AND WILL COLLECT IN LOW AREAS,
INCREASING THE ABOVE RISKS. THEREFORE:
• ALWAYS use the cylinder cap provided with your cylinder whenever the
cylinder is not connected to your barbeque. (Figure 4)
• DO NOT store in a building, garage or any other enclosed area. Store in a
well-ventilated area.
• DO NOT store near any gas burning apparatus or in any high-heat areas
such as a closed car or trunk.
• Transport and store the cylinder in an upright position – do not tip on its side.
• Store out of reach of children.
• DO NOT smoke while transporting a cylinder in your vehicle.
WARNING
• Never fill a cylinder beyond 80% full.
• An over filled or improperly stored cylinder is a hazard
due to possible gas release from the safety relief valve.
This could cause an intense fire with risk of property
damage, serious injury or death.
• If you see, smell or hear gas escaping, immediately get
away from the LP cylinder/appliance and call your fire
department.
Although it is safe when used properly,
careless handling of the propane gas cylinder
could result in fire, explosion, and/or serious
injury.
FILLING:
FOR SAFETY REASONS, IF AN OPTIONAL
L.P. GAS CYLINDER WAS SUPPLIED
WITH YOUR BARBEQUE, IT HAS BEEN
SHIPPED EMPTY. THE CYLINDER MUST
BE PURGED OF AIR AND FILLED PRIOR
TO USING ON YOUR BARBEQUE. WHEN
GETTING YOUR CYLINDER FILLED:
• Allow only a qualified L.P. gas dealer to fill or repair your cylinder.
• DO NOT allow the cylinder to be filled beyond 80% full.
• Make sure the L.P. gas dealer checks the cylinder for leaks after filling.
LP CYLINDER EXCHANGE
Many retailers that sell grills offer you the option of replacing your
empty LP cylinder through an exchange service. Use only those
reputable exchange companies that inspect, precision fill, test and
certify their cylinders. Exchange your cylinder only for an OPD safety
feature-equipped cylinder as described in the "LP Cylinder" section of
this manual.
• Always keep new and exchanged LP cylinders in upright position
during use, transit or storage.
• Leak test new and exchanged LP cylinders BEFORE connecting
to grill.
