between the appliance and the gas container (cartridge). Do not use the appliance if it has damaged or
worn seals. Do not use an appliance which is leaking, damaged, or which does not operate properly.

OPERATION WARNINGS
Do not leave stove unattended while in use. Keep stove area clear and free from combustible materials,
gasoline, and other flammable vapors and liquids. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation
air to the stove. Check the seals before connecting a new gas container to the appliance.
The gas
container/canister shall be changed in a well ventilated location, preferably outside, away
from any sources of ignition, such as naked flames, pilots, electric fires, and away from
other people.
If there is a leak on your appliance (smell of gas), take it outside immediately into a well
ventilated, flame free location where the leak may be detected and stopped. If you wish to check for leaks
on your appliance, do it outside. Do not try to detect leaks using a flame, use soapy water. Put some
soapy water on the gas connection points between gas cansister and the appliance, if bubble found,
there is gas leakage. DO NOT fry or cook foods with low moisture content when using Jetboil 5L Flux Pot
(1.3). If heating liquids near maximum capacity, use only low flame settings and exercise caution to
prevent boil-over. Ensure a 1” minimum gap between Windscreen and any cookware used when
Windscreen is attached. Use only windscreen provided with stove. Other windscreens can overheat the
fuel cylinder. If you overheat the cylinder, it can explode.
