How to use

To operate, flip open the top with a thumb or finger, spin the flint wheel with the thumb to create a spark and expose the wick to the flame. To refill, remove the insert from the case, lift the felt pad to expose the cotton reservoir and add the recommended lighter fluid carefully to avoid overfilling. Replace worn flints and trimmed or replaced wicks as needed to maintain reliable ignition and a steady flame. Close the lid after use to protect the ignition and prevent fuel evaporation.

Usage recommendations

Use only the manufacturer-recommended lighter fluid and genuine replacement flints and wicks. Keep the lighter away from children, store it in a well-ventilated area away from open heat sources, and avoid overfilling. For consistent performance, check and replace the flint and wick periodically and wipe external surfaces clean of debris or residue.
