AVERTISSEMENTS POUR LE CONSOMMATEUR:

Savoir reconnaître l’odeur du gaz PL.  Si vous entendez un
sifflement ou si vous sentez une odeur de gaz PL, éloignez
immédiatement toutes les personnes qui sont près de la bouteille
et appelez le service d’incendie.  N’essayez pas de réparer.

Le gaz PL étant plus lourd que l’air, il peut s’accumuler près
du sol avant de se dissiper.

Tout contact de la peau avec la phase liquide de la bouteille
causera des brûlures par le froid.

Ne laissez pas les enfants manipuler ou jouer avec la bouteille.

Lorsque la bouteille n’est pas raccordée à l’appareil, gardez la
soupape de la bouteille fermée.  Les radiateurs autonomes pour
patio doivent utiliser une bouteille d’une capacité maximale de
20 lb. (9kg) ou moins.

Ne pas utiliser, entreposer ou transporter la bouteille en l’ex-
posant à une température excessive car la soupape de sûreté
risque de s’ouvrir et de laisser échapper une grande quantité de
gaz inflammable.

Pour transporter une bouteille de gaz PL, la maintenir solide-
ment fixée en position verticale avec la soupape fermée.

CUSTOMER WARNING:

Know the odor of LP Gas. If you hear, see or smell leaking LP
gas, immediately get everyone away from the cylinder and
call the Fire Department. Do not attempt repairs.

LP Gas is heavier than air and may settle in low places while
dissipating.

Contact with the liquid contents of cylinder will cause freeze
burns to the skin.

Do not allow children to tamper or play with cylinder.

When not connected for use, keep cylinder valve turned off.
Self contained outdoor gas fireplaces shall be limited to a
cylinder of 20 lb. capacity or less.

Do not use, store or transport cylinder where it would be
exposed to high temperatures. Relief valve may open allow-
ing a large amount of flammable gas to escape.

When transporting, keep cylinder secured in an upright
position with cylinder valve turned off.
