No, all Zippo lighters are shipped empty of fuel for safety during shipping.
Zippo strongly recommends using genuine Zippo premium lighter fluid for optimal performance and to avoid clogging the wick.
You will notice the flame size decrease or the lighter will fail to light when the fuel level is low.
A single flint typically lasts for several weeks of normal use, but this varies based on how frequently you strike the wheel.
The royal blue matte finish is durable and fingerprint-resistant, though it may show scratches if exposed to abrasive materials.
Check if there is sufficient fluid in the insert and ensure the flint is not worn down to a nub.
Trim the wick to remove carbon buildup or replace it if it has become excessively frayed or short.
Check if a piece of a spent flint is lodged in the wheel or if the flint spring needs adjustment.
To begin using your lighter, you must first fill the insert with Zippo premium lighter fluid. Carefully remove the insert from the case, lift the felt pad at the bottom, and saturate the rayon balls with fluid—taking care not to overfill. For maintenance, ensure the wick is trimmed regularly to a height level with the chimney and replace the flint once you notice the spark wheel no longer strikes effectively. Always store the lighter in a cool, dry place to prevent excess fuel evaporation.
