Coleman 5444 manual English-2, Carbon Monoxide Hazard, Service Safety, Explosion Fire Hazard

WARNING

•This product is fueled by propane gas.

Propane gas is invisible, odorless, and flam- mable. An odorant is normally added to help detect leaks and can be described as a ”rot- ten egg” smell. The odorant can fade over time so leaking gas is not always detectable by smell alone.

•Propane gas is heavier than air and leaking propane will sink to the lowest level pos- sible. It can ignite by ignition sources includ- ing matches, lighters, sparks or open flames of any kind many feet away from the original leak. Use only propane gas set up for vapor withdrawal.

•Propane gas should be stored or used in compliance with local ordinances and codes or with ANSI/NFPA 58. Turn off propane when not in use.

DANGER

•EXPLOSION - FIRE HAZARD

•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 accu- mulate in low places. If you smell gas, leave the area immediately.

•Never install or remove propane tank while outdoor stove is lighted, near flame, pilot lights, other ignition sources or while outdoor stove is hot to touch.

•During lighting and operation, this product can be a source of ignition. Never use the stove in spaces that contain or may con- tain volatile or airborne combustibles, or products such as gasoline, solvents, paint thinner, dust particles or unknown chemi- cals. Minimum clearances from combustible materials: 12 inches from the sides and 48 inches from the top.

DANGER

•CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD

•This stove is a combustion appliance. All combustion appliances produce carbon monoxide (CO) during the combustion pro- cess. 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 pres- ent 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.

CAUTION

•SERVICE SAFETY

•Keep all connections and fittings clean.

Inspect propane cylinder and stove propane connections for damage before attaching.

•During set up, check all connections and fittings for leaks using soapy water. Never use a 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 Coleman for service or repairs.

•Use as a cooking appliance only. Never alter in any way or use with any device or part not expressly approved by Coleman.

•Clean stove frequently to avoid grease accumulation and possible grease fires.
