REPLACING FUEL CONTAINER
- If the fuel container is empty ( ), unscrew the cap with the pumping hose and remove the container from the holder ( ) (I).
- Insert a full fuel container with a cap removed ( ) (II).
- Screw the cap with the pumping hose back on (III).
FLAME IGNITION
The green diode ( ) indicates that the device is ready to ignite the flame.
Press and hold START for 3 seconds. Flame ignition will take 2-10 minutes ( ).
The smell of ethanol vapours can be present during the ignition. The diode
READY off ( ) indicates that the flame has been ignited and the device reached
the working temperature.

After 3 min, press ECO to lower the flame (two sound signals). Press ECO again
to increase the flame height (one sound signal).
ATTENTION! In case the device temperature is too high, the flame will be
automatically lowered (ECO) and the height regulation blocked. If the
temperature keeps increasing, the device will be turned off.
FLAME EXTINGUISHING
Press STOP to extinguish the flame (sound signal + ).
You can ignite the flame again when the device is cooled – the green diode
