DANGER – Gas Safety

Liquid propane (LP) gas is flammable and hazardous if handled improperly. Become aware of its characteristics before using any propane product.

•

Propane Characteristics: Flammable, explosive under pressure, heavier than air and settles in pools in low areas.

•

In its natural state, propane has no odor. For your safety, an odorant has been added.

•

Contact with propane could cause freeze burns to the skin.

•

This grill is shipped from the factory for propane gas use only.

•

Never use a propane cylinder with a damaged body, valve, collar or footing.

•

Dented or rusted propane cylinders may be hazardous and should be checked by your propane gas supplier.

•

Never keep a filled container in a hot car or car trunk. Heat will cause the gas pressure to increase, which may open the

release valve and allow gas flow to escape.
