CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65:
WARNING: This fuel, and byproducts of com-
bustion of this fuel, contain chemicals known to the
state of California to cause cancer, birth defects,
or other reproductive harm.
WARNING
• This product is fueled by propane gas. Propane
gas 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.
• Propane gas is heavier than air and leaking
propane 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 propane gas set up for vapor withdrawal.
• Propane gas should be stored or used in compli-
ance with local ordinances and codes or with
ANSI/NFPA 58. Turn off propane when not in use.
DANGER
• EXPLOSION - FIRE HAZARD
• Never store propane near high heat, open
flames, pilot lights, direct sunlight, other ignition sources or where temperatures exceed
120 degrees F (49°C).
• Propane is heavier than air and can accumulate in low places. If you smell gas, leave the
area immediately.
• Never install or remove propane tank 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: 12 inches from the
sides and 48 inches from the top.
• Do not obstruct the flow of combustion or
ventilation air.
WARNING
Not for home or recreational vehicle use.
We cannot foresee every use which may be
made of our products.
Check with your local fire safety authority if
you have questions about use.
Other standards govern the use of fuel gases
and heat producing products for specific uses.
Your local authorities can advise you
about these.
• Never refill disposable cylinders.
• Use the preset regulator that came with the
lantern. Do not attempt to adjust.
• Use only Coleman®accessories or parts.
During lantern set-up, check all fittings for
leaks using soapy water. Never use a flame.
DANGER
• CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD
• This lantern 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 lantern.
• 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, vehi-
cle or other unventilated or enclosed
areas. This lantern consumes air (oxygen).
