How to use

Ensure the lighter is empty of flame and kept away from open heat. Remove the old flint following the lighter manufacturer's instructions or by accessing the flint compartment, typically located under the spark wheel or in the base of the ignition assembly. Insert the replacement flint into the flint tube or holder with correct orientation, secure any retaining spring or cap, then reassemble the lighter. Test ignition briefly in a safe area to confirm proper spark generation and adjust if necessary according to the lighter's adjustment features.

Usage recommendations

Replace the flint as soon as ignition becomes intermittent or weak. Store replacement flints in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children. When installing, avoid excessive force that could damage the spark wheel or flint tube; if the lighter still fails to ignite after replacement, inspect other components such as the wheel, spring, or fuel level before discarding the lighter.
