Here are a few simple - but important rules to remember :

• Ensure your cylinder is filled by an authorized LP Gas Dealer*.
• When filling the cylinder with gas, always ensure that it is not overfilled. Every cylinder has its own tare weight (ie. its weight empty) stamped on the foot ring. Each cylinder size is designed to hold a specific quantity of gas ie. No.3 Cylinder - 1.4kg No.7 Cylinder - 3.0kg No.10 Cylinder - 4.5kg No.13 Cylinder - 6.0kg Therefore the weight of the filled cylinder should not exceed the sum of the above two figures ie. tare weight together with weight of gas.
• If on checking you find that your cylinder is overfilled, proceed as follows : Take the cylinder outdoors, away from any naked flames, drains or openings to basements and open the bleeder plug slightly with a 4mm Allen key (do not remove). Liquid gas (in the form of a misty vapour) will emerge from the bleeder plug. Allow this to continue until the liquid flow stops and clear gas only comes out, then close the bleeder plug. However, it is the legal responsibility of the retail outlet, filling your cylinder, to ensure that it is not overfilled. Please ensure that the dealer checks the weight of the cylinder immediately after filling.
• Before fitting any appliance to the cylinder, remove the dust protection plug from the cylinder opening (always replace dust protection plug when not in use). Check that the sealing washer on the appliance is in place and intact. Then screw the appliance firmly into the cylinder opening. Fit the control key (stored in the cylinder carry handle) to the cylinder valve. With a flame ready, open the valve slightly by turning the key in an anti-clockwise direction. A gentle hissing will be heard. Without delay apply the flame to the source of gas on the appliance.
