If you are in doubt or you can hear or smell gas, do not attempt to light the appliance. Unscrew the cartridge and contact your local dealer.
  5. Make sure that the burner is securely screwed in. The stove is now ready for use.

OPERATING THE APPLIANCE

  1. The gas-powered device should always be on a stable surface when in use. Make sure the lid is in the correct position.

  3. Adjust the size of the flame by turning the control knob (1).
  4. After lighting, operate the appliance upright and do not move it around. Flaring may occur if the appliance has not fully warmed, or if it is moved carelessly.
  5. After use, close the valve on the gas cylinder. Once the flame has gone out, close the valve (valves) on the gas-powered device
  6. Distance to inflammable materials must be ensured. Minimum distance to combustibles at least 500 mm (20 inches) from sides and 200 mm (8 inches) from top.
    To avoid a fire hazard these minimum distances must be complied with.

CHANGING THE CARTRIDGE

  1. Shut the valve fully. Be sure the flame is extinguished and no other flame is nearby. Take the unit outdoors away from other people. Unscrew the cartridge from the valve and replace the appliance sealing O-ring if it is cracked or worn. Avoid cross threading by puting the valve onto the cartridge screw thread squarely and screw on hand tight only, as described in section 4.
