#### CRITICAL SAFETY WARNINGS

* **Pressure Limitations:** The maximum working pressure for this keg is 4.0 bar.
* **PRV Requirement:** Before attaching a gas supply, you must have a pressure relief valve (PRV) installed on your regulator and/or keg coupler to prevent excessive pressure from entering the keg.
  * ***Approved Options:*** The KegLand [KL09164 (Green)](https://kegland.com.au/products/cornelius-type-pressure-relief-valve-prv-for-keg-lids-or-mk4-regulator-green-65-psi-4-5bar) or KegLand [KL05333 (Red)](https://kegland.com.au/products/cornelius-type-pressure-relief-valve-prv-for-keg-lids-or-mk4-regulator-red-35psi-2-5bar) PRVs are both acceptable safety measures. And the [A-Type Talos Filling Coupler SS KL35194](https://kegland.com.au/products/talos-a-type-filling-coupler-nickle-plated-brass) has a pressure release valve installed.
