WARNING: We recommend that your liquid propane cylinder be filled at an authorized liquid propane gas dealer by a qualified attendant, who fills the tank by weight.
IMPROPER FILLING IS DANGEROUS.
Tell your liquid propane dealer that this is a new liquid propane cylinder. The air must be removed from a new liquid propane cylinder before the initial
fi lling. Your liquid propane cylinder dealer is equipped to do this.
The liquid propane cylinder must be installed, transported and stored in an upright position, and should not be dropped or handled roughly.
Never store or transport the liquid propane cylinder where temperatures can reach 125° Fahrenheit (too hot to hold by hand – for example: do not leave the liquid propane cylinder in a car on a hot day).
For full instructions on safe handling of liquid propane cylinders, see Section “Operating”.
