FOR YOUR SAFETY
If you smell gas:
1. Do not attempt to light appliance.
2. Extinguish any open flame.
3. Disconnect from fuel supply.
WARNING!
Do not store or use gasoline or any liquids with flammable vapors in the vicinity of this or any other heat producing
appliance.
CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD
This appliance can produce carbon monoxide which has no odor. Using it in an enclosed space can result in
serious injury or death. Never use this appliance in an enclosed space such as a camper, tent, car or home.
DANGER
EXPLOSION −FIRE HAZARD
A hazardous situation which can result in death or serious injury is inevitable if the following situations are not
avoided:
●Never store propane near high heat, open flames, pilot lights, direct sunlight, or other ignition sources or where
temperatures exceed 120 degrees F (49 degrees C).
●Propane is heavier than air and can accumulate in low places. If you smell gas, leave the area immediately.
●Never install or remove the propane tank while outdoor stove is lighted, near flame, pilot lights, other ignition
sources or while outdoor stove is hot to the touch.
●During operation, this product can be a source of ignition. Never use the stove in spaces that contain or may
contain volatile or airborne particles or unknown chemicals. Minimum clearance from combustible materials: 12
inches from the sides and 48 inches from the top
WARNING
A potentially hazardous situation could result in death or serious injury if the following situations are not heeded:
● Never leave stove unattended when hot or in use.
●Keep out of the reach of children.
●Not for use inside home, tent, RV or any area with poor ventilation.
12
WARNING (continued)
●Use the preset regulator that came with the stove. Do not attempt to adjust this regulator.
●This product is fueled by propane gas. Propane gas is invisible, odorless, and flammable. An odorant is normally
added to help detect leaks. The smell can be described as that of "rotten eggs". 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 possible. Ignition sources can
include 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.
●This fuel, and byproducts from the combustion of this fuel, contain chemicals known to cause cancer, birth
defects, or other reproductive harm in the state of California (CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65).
CAUTION
A potentially hazardous situation may result in minor or moderate personal injury or property damage if the
following situations are not avoided:
●This stove is a combustion appliance. All combustion appliances produce carbon monoxide (CO) during the
combustion process. 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. CO
produces flu-like symptoms, watery eyes, headaches, dizziness, fatigue and possibly death. If these symptoms are
present during operation of this product get fresh air immediately!
●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 SOTO for service.
●Use as a cooking appliance only. Never alter in any way or use with any device or part not expressly approved
by SOTO.
●Clean stove frequently to avoid grease accumulation and possible grease fires.
