WARNING
TO AVOID INJURY,
read, understand, and follow all instructions and warnings
in this manual before using the stove.
Leaking fuel is a serious fire hazard and poses a risk of
property damage, personal injury, and death.
Using your stove in an enclosed area is dangerous. Do not use your stove in a tent, car, or house. MSR recommends
you use your stove outside, because fire and carbon monoxide poisoning can kill you.
Keep the fuel in your fuel bottle, by inspecting and replacing any worn or damaged O-rings and pump seal each
time you use the stove. Damaged or worn O-rings or pump seal may result in leaking fuel.
Double check for spilled or leaking fuel before lighting up your stove. If you find spilled fuel, move to another
area. If you find leaking fuel, your stove may be broken. Repair it or send it to your MSR retailer or MSR Product
Service Center for repairs. Always recheck for leaking fuel following any repairs or maintenance. Note: When tem-
peratures are below -24°C (-10°F), O-rings might get stiff and break, resulting in leaking fuel.
Use only MSR fuel bottles. Non-MSR fuel bottles won’t fit properly with MSR pumps, resulting in leaking fuel.
Protect yourself! Never place your head or body above the stove when in use. Keep clothing and other flammable
things away from the stove, too.
Don’t unlock the catch arm or disconnect the stove, pump, or fuel bottle when the stove is lit or
near any ignition source. Leaking fuel will result.
Only light the stove when it’s cool. Relighting a warm stove may cause a dangerous fireball.
Never leave dry cookware on a burning stove; the fuel bottle may overheat and explode. Severe injury and stove
damage can occur.
Use small diameter cookware (9 in./23 cm or smaller). Cookware with a large diameter may cause the fuel
bottle to overheat and explode. Severe injury and stove damage can occur.
Always supervise children in the vicinity of stoves. Never allow them to use stoves or leave a burning/hot stove
unattended.
Only use the stove for cooking food and boiling water.
Don’t disassemble beyond what is described in these instructions. Don’t alter the stove in any way. And don’t use
the stove if any parts are missing or broken.
You are about to use a highly flammable liquid to cook food.
