## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it come filled with propane?**
A: No. It ships empty, pre-purged, and vacuum-sealed, so it’s ready for its first fill. Take it to any propane refill station and let the attendant know it’s a new, pre-purged tank. No purging is needed.

**Q: How should I store my propane tank?**
A: Outdoors, upright, in a shaded, well-ventilated spot away from heat, flames, and sparks, with the valve closed. Never store it indoors, in a garage or basement, or anywhere the temperature could top 120°F. Keep it out of reach of children.

**Q: Can the tank be mounted upside down?**
A: No. This tank is built to be used, stored, and transported upright. Upright, the valve draws propane vapor from the top of the tank. Upside down or on its side, liquid propane can reach the valve and your appliance, which is unsafe.

**Q: Can I carry it in my car?**
A: Yes. It’s DOT and Transport Canada certified for transport. Close the valve, keep the tank upright and secured, ventilate the vehicle, and go directly to your destination. Never leave it in a hot, parked car.

**Q: What does the built-in propane gauge indicate?**
A: The easy-to-read gauge provides an approximate indication of propane level: Green = plenty of gas, Yellow = low gas/early warning, and Red = refill needed.
