all the way and make sure that it is closed.
Remove the canister cap of the canister.
Make sure that the guide (protrusion) is in the

If the canister is installed
tilted, liquid gas may enter the
main unit, which may cause
the flame to become larger
during ignition. Install the
canister horizontally.

excessive force when
attaching or removing a

Excessive force will damage
the canister holder.
When it is difficult to install the canister

Notice
The following canisters can be used with this product:
Iwatani Butane Fuel and FORE WINDS Butane Fuel.
Because of the difference of the outer diameter of the canister, a slight amount
of rattling occurs on tables and other flat surfaces, but this does not indicate a
malfunction.
Always use a fuel canister labeled as “Iwatani Butane Fuel” or “FORE WINDS Butane Fuel”
