Light the fuel at the wick using a match or lighter. The
wick is the white pad in the center of the burner, in the
bottom of the cup. This is accessed via one of the holes
in the cup. Of course, it is important to make sure that
you never hold your face or any other part of your body
directly over the stove when you light it. The fuel may ignite explosively. If the stove
cannot be lit, you might not have released enough fuel. If this is the case, repeat step
6.The fuel will burn with a yellow, fl aring fl ame and heat the burner. Wait a short time until the fuel has
almost burned out and the fl ame has become small.

Release a small
amount of fuel for
preheating.
The stove’s burner has to be hot to allow the
liquid fuel to vaporize at the nozzle and burn
effi ciently. Therefore, you have to preheat the
burner before you can start preparing food.
This is done by fi rst releasing a squirt of fuel
and allowing it to burn for a short time, heating
up the nozzle in the burner.
The preheating time varies depending on
what type of fuel you are using. For example, gasoline is vaporized more readily than kerosene and
requires less preheating. Preheating takes longer when it is cold and if the stove is not protected
from the wind.
Start by opening the control valve for two seconds. It is diffi cult to see how much fuel has run out
onto the wick, but as time goes by you will get a feel for this. Proceed with caution as you familiarize
yourself with your stove.
WARNING! Check for fuel leaks at the bottle, pump, hose and burner before
lighting the stove.

Light the fuel and wait until the
fl ame has almost burned out.
WARNING! Keep children away from the stove and never leave it without
supervision.
