THE AUTO SAFETY DEVICE
In the case of long term or excessive heat near the fuel car-
tridge, pressure will build up to set off the safety device. The gas
cartridge is automatically ejected in the event of over-pressure in
the gas cartridge and the flame will be extinguished. The unit will
not operate until the gas pressure of the cartridge returns to the
normal range.
How to reset the auto safety device
1. Turn the control knob to the “O” position
2. Remove the gas cartridge.
3. Turn the ignition knob to the “MAX” position and wait for 5
minutes to release any excess gas inside the unit.
4. Return the ignition knob back to the “O” position.
5. Push the cartridge lever down to the “LOCK” position and
then release it back to the “UNLOCK” position.
6. Determine the cause of over-pressure, i.e. Stove used in
strong direct sunlight, an oversized pot/pan has been used,
insufficient ventilation, etc.
7. Make necessary adjustments to location, pot/pan used,
and if necessary, allow the gas cartridge to cool before
re-installing. Another option is to install a fresh cool gas
cartridge.
8. Follow the procedures for installing the gas cartridge and
ignition, then re-ignite.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
•
Before caring for, or cleaning your butane stove, make sure
that the ignition knob is in the “O” or “off” position. If the
stove is still hot, wait for it to cool down before cleaning.
•
Ensure that there are no signs of blockage (eg. debris,
insects, etc) in either the burner portholes, the primary air
inlet or the neck of the iron burner. Use compressed air or
pipe cleaner wire to clear obstructions. A copper wire brush
can be used to remove corrosion from the burner surfaces.
Brush it afterwards lightly with cooking oil to prevent the
formation of rust while storing.
WE RECOMMEND THAT THIS SHOULD BE DONE AFTER
EVERY COOKING SESSION IN COASTAL AREAS.
Taking care of your stove will prolong its lifespan.
Cleaning & maintenance
1. The unit must be cleaned after each use and maintained
at least once every six months. The unit must only be
serviced by a licensed service professional.
