When lighting your propane barbeque, open the lid and strike your match or lighter before turning on the gas.

When you have finished barbequing, remember to turn off your propane cylinder valve first and then the BBQ burners. Ensure that you close the cylinder valve tightly, even if you think the tank is empty.

Store your BBQ and propane cylinder outdoors.

Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for the safe use, cleaning and maintenance of your BBQ.

Test your cylinder for leakages on a regular basis. When testing for leakages, never use matches or an open flame. Use soapy water or a leak detector.

Store your cylinder away from heat and insert a safety plug on the valve.
