Troubleshooting

Stove does not light with Piezo ignition

Ensure the gas canister is properly screwed in and gas is flowing. Check if the Piezo igniter needs to be cleaned or if the electrode is misaligned. You may need to manually light the stove with a match or lighter.

Low flame or weak heat output

Check if the gas canister is low on fuel. Ensure the gas flow adjustment valve is fully open. Verify that the burner ports are not clogged; clean them gently with a fine needle if necessary. Make sure the windshield is correctly positioned.

Stove wobbles or feels unstable

Ensure the stove is placed on a perfectly level and stable surface. Check that all folding legs are fully extended and locked into position.

Gas leaks detected

Immediately turn off the gas supply by closing the control knob. Check the connection between the stove and the gas canister for tightness and damage. Replace the gas canister if the seal appears faulty. Do not use if a leak persists.
