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.
DANGER
• 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 gas when not
in use.
WARNING
DANGER
• EXPLOSION - FIRE HAZARD
• Never store LPG 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 fill with fuel 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.
• Proper lantern operation produces a bright
white light.
