Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin using your Zippo, you must fill the insert with official Zippo premium lighter fuel.
- Filling: Pull the inner metal insert from the outer case. Lift the felt pad at the bottom and saturate the rayon balls with lighter fluid. Do not overfill to prevent leakage.
- Maintenance: Periodically replace the flint when you notice the sparking mechanism becomes difficult to strike. The cotton wick may also require trimming or replacement if it becomes carbon-heavy.
- Compatibility: This model is compatible with standard Zippo flints, wicks, and premium fuel. Avoid using off-brand fuels to prevent clogging the internal system.
