DANGER
• EXPLOSION - FIRE HAZARD
• Never store propane near high heat, open flames, pilot lights, direct

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 outdoor stove is lighted,
near flame, pilot lights, other ignition sources or while outdoor stove is
hot to touch.
• During operation, this product can be a source of ignition. Never use
the stove 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" from the sides & 48" from the top.
• Provide adequate clearances around air openings into the combustion
chamber.
• DO NOT use gas stove indoors or store any propane cylinder(s)
indoors, including in the garage, breezeways, sheds or enclosed areas.

DANGER
• CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD
• This stove is a combustion appliance.All combustion appliances produce carbon monoxide (CO) during the combustion process.This
product is designed to produce extremely minute, nonhazardous
amounts of CO if used and maintained in accordance with all warnings and instructions.Do not block air flow into or out of the cookstove.
• 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,or other unventilated or enclosed areas.
This cook stove consumes air (oxygen). Do not use in unventilated or enclosed areas to avoid endangering your life.
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 withdraw.
• Propane gas should be stored and used in compliance with local
ordinances and codes or with ANSI/NFPA 58. Turn off propane when
not in use.
