Does the stove come with a gas cartridge?

Troubleshooting

Stove will not ignite

Ensure the gas cartridge is screwed on tightly and the control knob is open. Check that the burner holes are not blocked. Ensure the igniter (if applicable) is functioning or use a long lighter.

Flame is weak or sputtering

The gas cartridge may be low on fuel. Check the cartridge connection for leaks. Ensure the stove is upright and not tilted. Cold temperatures can also affect gas pressure.

Unstable when cooking

Ensure the stove is placed on a flat, level surface. Check that the folding legs and pot stands are fully extended and locked in place.

Gas smell after connecting cartridge

Turn off the gas immediately. Unscrew the cartridge and re-attach, ensuring a tight seal. If the smell persists, the cartridge or stove connection may be faulty; do not use.
