SOLUTION
• DO NOT light the burner. Extinguish any open
flame near the spill. Wipe up the spill, and wait
several minutes for the residue to evaporate.
If you see no additional fuel on the ground,
you may light the burner. If you see additional
fuel on the ground, you might have a leak. DO
NOT use this appliance if it leaks fuel.
• The appliance may not be level. Check
to make sure the appliance is level, and
shim under the grate legs or rear support, if
necessary. Shim only with metal washers or
other non-flammable objects.
• A small piece of foil that covers the
opening of the illuma-fuel
®
canister might
be obstructing the piercer tube. Open the
fuel canister door on the left side of the
appliance. Gently wiggle the fuel canister
left to right and front to rear on the fuel
canister tray to enlarge the opening in the
foil. DO NOT lift the illuma-fuel canister from
the tray, as this could cause a fuel spill.
• The tubes connecting the burner to the fuel
reservoir might be clogged. Starting at the
tube opening in the bottom of the burner, run
a thin, flexible wire through the length of the
tube to remove the obstruction.
• The battery in the igniter may be dead.
Replace it with a new battery
• The sparker tip may be out of position. The
tip of the sparker should be about ¼” above
the level of the sparking point. Carefully
bend the wire so that the tip of the sparker
wire is in this position
• The fuel is cold or the appliance is cold.
Use a long match or a long butane lighter to
ignite the fuel.
• If the fuel is hot, the fuel vapors stop oxygen
from being in the vicinity of the spark. Thus
not allowing the fuel to ignite. Wait until the
fuel is cool or relight the appliance using a
long match or a long nosed butane igniter.

1. You see fuel on the ground near the
appliance.
2. You do not see fuel in the burner prior to
