where temperatures exceed 50° C (120° F) can result in the
canister exploding.
Never move a burning or hot stove. Allow stove to cool for at
least 10 minutes before moving it.
Never transport or store the stove with the gas canister
connected to it.
Always store gas canisters in a well-ventilated area away from
any possible heat or ignition source such as: water heaters,
stoves, pilot lights, furnaces or where temperatures exceed
50°C (120°F).
MAINTENANCE
Before each use, check the O-ring where the stove connects to
the gas canister.
FIGURE [1]
Leakage may result if the O-ring is
not in place, or if it is worn or damaged. Replace the O-ring by
teasing it out with a tool such as the blunt end of a sewing
needle. Never use a sharp or pointed object that can damage
the seal surfaces. Fit the new O-ring with care to avoid
damaging it. Only use original Optimus O-rings (Art. Nr.
8017867) for this purpose. Do not modify the stove. Only
qualified individuals are allowed to do additional service. For
major repairs send stove back to Optimus.
