unexpectedly when mixed with air.
LP Tank Filling
• Use only licensed and experienced dealers.

• Dealer should NEVER fill LP tank more than
80% of LP tank volume. Volume of propane
in tanks will vary by temperature.

Immediately close LP tank valve and call
local LP gas dealer for assistance.
• Do not release liquid propane (LP) gas
into the atmosphere. This is a hazardous
practice.
• To remove gas from LP tank, contact an
LP dealer or call a local fire department for
assistance. Check the telephone directory

reputable exchange companies that inspect,
precision fill, test and certify their cylinders.
Exchange your tank only for an OPD safety
feature-equipped tank as described in the
“LP Tank” section of this manual.
