• Apartment Dwellers: Check with management to learn the
requirements and fire codes for using an LP Gas appliance
at an apartment. If allowed, use outside on the ground floor

• Before opening LP tank valve, check the coupling nut for
tightness. When appliance is not in use, turn off control knob
and LP tank valve on supply cylinder.
• Never use LP tank if visibly rusted, damaged, or out of date.

appliance onto valve, hose or regulator, turn off gas supply at
once. Determine the cause, correct, clean and inspect valve,
hose and regulator before continuing. Perform a leak test.
• The regulator may make a humming or whistling noise during
operation. This will not affect the safety or use of appliance.
