following
connections:
NEVER store a spare LP tank under or near grill or in
enclosed areas.
Never fill the cylinder beyond 80% full. An overlilled
spare LP tank is hazardous due to possible gas
released from the safety relief valve. The safety relief
valve on a LP tank could activate releasing gas and
cause a fire.
If you see, smell or hear escaping gas, immediately
get away from the LP tank/grfll and call your fire
department.
All spare LP tanks must have safety caps installed on
the LP tank outlet.
