Propane is a wonder-
fully, convenient fuel
for.cottagers,
camppers.and backyard barbecuers.. It's clean,'
Buick and efficient for cooking, refrigeration
and lighting. But, like all flammable materials,'
propane must .be used with care. Did you know,
for instance, that: • • '
CI Propane barbecues should neverbe used in
an enclosed area. .
0 Propane cylinders must be stored outdoors
and checked for safety every 10 years.
d A propane cylinder should always be moved
or stored in an upright position. • ,•r
o .Propane cylinderr'must be located outside
recreational vehicles or in a compartment that
is gas-tight to the vehicle interior and ventilated
directly to ,the outdoors:
o It is strongly recommended that propane—
fuelled refrigerators '
• be cleaned and, adjusted
every year.
You'll find these safety facts and more in our
free booklet: Mail the coupon today and get
your copy. It's a great reference guide, and it will
ensure that propane is always a helpmate rather
than a hazard to you and your family.
