OPERATING PRECAUTIONS
Propane is heavier than air. If propane leaks from a connection or
fitting, it sinks to the floor, collecting there with the surrounding
air, forming a potentially explosive mixture. During set up check
all connections and fittings for leaks using soapy water. Never use
flame. Bubbles indicate a leak. Check that the connection is not
cross threaded and that it is tight. Perform another leak check. If
there is still a leak, remove the cylinder and contact Mr. Heater
direct for service or repair.

Use for water heating only. Never alter in anyway or use with
any device or part not expressly approved by Mr. Heater.
