- It’s recommended that you open a window slightly when your internal cook top is in use.
- Never use your cooking appliances for comfort heating.
- Only use external cook top bayonet for your supplied cook top, never for a space heater or BBQ (from as5601.1 Appendix G).
- Familiarize yourself with the odor of unburnt LP gas to assist in the early detection of leaks.
- Check your connections at appliances, regulators, hoses and cylinders periodically for leaks with soapy water or equivalent, NOTE: this should be done at least annually.
- In the event of fire immediately close the cylinder valve if safe to do so.
