Fuel canisters can explode.
Keep them away from heat, direct sunlight,
and sources of ignition.
Canisters must be
stored outdoors in a well-ventilated area out
of the reach of children.
DANGER
^
Do not use unit on a hot surface.
If you cannot keep your palm on a surface
for more than 5 seconds, the surface is too hot to place a fuel canister on
.
If there is a leak on your appliance (smell of gas), remove it to a well-ventilated,
flame-free location where the leak may be detected and stopped. If you wish to
check for leaks on your appliance, do it outside. Do not try to detect leaks using
a flame; use soapy water.
Accessible parts may become very hot. Keep young children away.
Helios must be operated on a horizontal surface, at least 1 meter away from any
adjacent surfaces (walls or ceilings), flammable materials, and ignition sources.
Do not lean over stove, and keep hair and other body parts away from unit dur-
ing ignition. Do not move, lift, or tilt Helios while burner is lit. Flaring may occur.
