provided with these stoves can result in death, serious
bodily injury and property loss or damage from hazards of
fire, explosion, burn, asphyxiation, and/or carbon
monoxide poisoning.
• 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, non-hazardous amounts of CO if used and
maintained in accordance with all warnings and instructions.
Do not block air flow into or out of the stove.
• 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, camper, tent, vehicle or other
unventilated or enclosed areas. This stove consumes air
(oxygen). Do not use in unventilated or enclosed areas to
avoid endangering your life.
• Never store propane near high heat, open flames, pilot lights,
direct sunlight, other ignition sources or where temperatures
exceed 120°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 lit, 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.

• Provide adequate clearances around air openings into the
combustion chamber.

including matches, lighters, sparks or open flames of any kind
many feet away from the original leak.
