Warning notices for handling propane gas (liquefied petroleum gas)
• LPG is flammable and dangerous if handled improperly. Be aware of the
properties of propane gas and read the respective instructions before
using a liquefied gas product.
Properties of propane gas: flammable, explosive under pressure, heavier
than air and settles in pools at low levels. In its natural form, propane gas has
no odour. For your safety, an odorous substance is usually added. Direct skin
contact with propane gas can cause burns. Propane gas is highly flammable
and dangerous if handled improperly.
Safety instructions for handling liquid gas cylinders
• Gas bottles should be stored outdoors in well-ventilated areas out of the
reach of children. Gas bottles must not be stored in buildings, garages or
other closed areas.
• Gas cylinders separated from the appliance must have permanently
installed threaded valve plugs and must not be located in buildings,
garages or other enclosed areas.
• Never use a gas bottle with a damaged housing, valve, collar or stand.
• Dented or rusted gas bottles can be dangerous and should be checked by
your propane supplier before use.
• The liquid gas bottle must be designed for the extraction of steam.
• The liquid gas bottle must have a collar to protect the gas bottle valve.
• Liquid gas cylinders must not be dropped or handled roughly.
• Never store gas bottles in places where temperatures above 50 ° C can be
reached.
• Do not store liquid gas bottles in direct sunlight or near a heat source or
source of combustion.
• Never store gas bottles in a heated car or trunk. The heat causes the
gas pressure to rise, causing the pressure relief valve to open and gas to
escape.
• Place the dust cap on the outlet of the gas bottle valve when the gas bottle
is not in use. Use only the type of dust cap that came with the gas bottle
valve. Other types of caps or plugs could cause propane gas leakage.
• Never store replacement gas bottles below or near the device.
• Make sure that the liquid gas bottles are filled with a maximum of 80% of
the total volume with gas.
• If the above instructions are not followed exactly, this can lead to property
damage and / or personal injury and death.
• LPG bottles should only be filled by a certified LPG dealer.
• The gas pressure regulator is set to the gas pressure of the respective
country. The outlet pressure of the regulator corresponds to the gas
pressure of the respective country.
