Safety and Warnings
1. Warnings
These are the most critical warnings summarized below.
• If the instructions in this manual are not followed exactly, a fire or explosion may
result, causing property damage, personal injury or death.
• Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable substances and liquids near this or
other appliance,
• Never use this appliance as a space heater to warm a room.
• Installation of this appliance must be done by a qualified service agency or gas
supplier.
Using a dual gas detector highly recommended
This is a dual fuel stove that can run on Propane or Methane. Both fuels have added a
hydrogen sulfide, which smell like rotten eggs, to make it easier to detect. However,
some individuals may not be able to detect the smell. Because fuel gas leaks cannot
always be detected by smell, the use of a gas detector is highly recommended,
Inexpensive dual fuel gas detectors are available commercially today.
• Gas suppliers recommend that you use a gas detector approved by UL or CSA.
• For more information, contact your gas supplier.
• If a gas leak is detected, follow the “What to do if you smell gas” instructions
below
What to do if you smell natural methane or propane gas
• Do not light any appliance
• Do not touch an electrical switch
• Immediately call the gas supplier from a neighbor’s phone
• Open a window and leave the area
• Follow the gas supplier’s instructions
• If you cannot reach the gas supplier, call the fire department
Important Food Safety Warnings
• According to the United Sates Department of Agriculture:
DO NOT hold foods at temperatures between 40ºF to 140ºF more than 2 hours.
Cooking raw foods below 275ºF is not recommended.
Safety and Warnings
Suffocation Warning / Carbon Monoxide Poisoning
• Never cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire rack
with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the oven and
may cause carbon monoxide poisoning.
• Aluminum foil lining may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard.
