CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65:

WARNING: This fuel, and byproducts of

combustion of this fuel, contain chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.

• 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.

WARNING

DANGER

• 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 lantern is lighted, near flame, pilot lights, other ignition sources or while lantern is hot to touch.

• During operation, this product can be a source of ignition. Never use the lantern 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.

• Do not obstruct the flow of combustion or ventilation air.

• Proper lantern operation produces a bright white light.
