Safe Use of Mini Gas Stoves

Step 1: Install the Gas Can into the Gas Cylinder

Step 2: Slide the Handle Down to the Lock Position

Step 3: Turn the Knob Counterclockwise

Turn the knob to the ON position until you hear a “click” sound and the flame will ignite.

If the flame doesn’t ignite, turn the knob to the OFF position and repeat the step again.

Step 4: Turn the Knob from High to Low to Adjust the Flame Intensity

Note: When first igniting the flame, it may not burn evenly. After 10-15 seconds of use or when placing a pot on the stove, the flame will self-adjust and burn evenly.

Step 5: After Using, Turn the Knob Clockwise to the OFF Position to Extinguish the Flame

You should slide the handle to the UNLOCK position to lock the gas for added safety. Remove the mini gas canister from the stove when not in use.

Notes When Using Mini Gas Stoves

To ensure safety when cooking on a mini gas stove and prevent gas leaks and explosions, users need to take note of the following:

– Do not use gas canisters that are too old, as they may not be safe and can cause dangerous leaks and explosions.

– Avoid using pots and pans that are too large on the mini gas stove, as it may not provide sufficient heat and support.

– Do not cook continuously for too long on the stove, as it can cause the gas canister to heat up.

– Pay attention to the correct installation of the stove and gas canister to ensure safe gas flow and efficient stove operation.

– Regularly clean the stove to prevent rust and ensure its longevity, durability, and safety.
