• CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD

• This lantern is a combustion appliance. All combustion appliances produce carbon mon- oxide (CO) during the combustion process. This product is designed to produce extreme- ly 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 lantern.

• 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 present 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 lantern consumes air (oxygen). Do not use in unventilated or enclosed areas to avoid endangering your life. CAUTION

• Use only propane set up for vapor withdrawal.

• Keep all connections and fittings clean. Inspect propane cylinder and lantern propane connections for damage before attaching.

• During set up, CHECK FOR LEAKS in one or more ways: Apply soapy water to connec- tions. Look for bubbles. Listen for hiss of escaping gas. Feel for extreme cold. Smell for rotten egg odor. Never use a flame. Do not use if leaking.

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

• Never use as a space heater.

accessories or parts

• During lantern set-up, check all fittings for leaks using soapy water. Never use a flame. WARNING

• This product is fueled by propane gas. Propane gas is invisible, odorless, and flammable. An odor

ant is normally added to help detect leaks and can be described as a ”rotten 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 pro

pane will sink to the lowest level possible. It can ignite by ignition sources including matches, light- ers, 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 compli- ance with local ordinances and codes or with ANSI/NFPA 58. Turn off propane when not in use. WARNING DANGERTo Set Up DANGER
