2.2 Safety precautions when handling denatured
alcohol
Keep inflammable substances apart from heating and cooking
d
devices and other light and heat sources.
Store alcohol in suitable containers only and in sufficient
distance from the heater.
Eliminate all sources of sparks or flames where the alcohol is
stored or filled-in.
Overfilling, spilt alcohol and hot objects can cause severe
burns.
Denatured alcohol burns with almost invisible flame, so great
damage can arise before you notice the danger.
Mop up any spilt alcohol immediately to prevent uncontrollable
a
burning.
Do not smoke when handling alcohol or when operating the
heater.
Fill the tank to the maximum capacity only. Alcohol expands in
the tank when heated. Overfilled alcohol can cause uncontrolla-
ble burning inside the heater.
