FAQs

How often does this lighter need to be refueled?

Refueling frequency depends on usage and environmental conditions. On average, a properly filled Zippo lighter can last for several days to a week with moderate use. Fuel will evaporate over time even when not in use.

What type of fuel should I use?

For optimal performance and to maintain the warranty, it is recommended to use genuine Zippo premium lighter fuel. Other fuels may cause improper burning or damage the lighter.

Does the "Works or we repair it Free" guarantee cover cosmetic damage?

The lifetime guarantee covers the mechanical functionality of the lighter. It does not cover cosmetic damage like scratches or dents that do not affect its ability to light. Normal wear and tear is not covered.

How do I change the flint?

You need to pull out the fuel insert, unscrew the flint screw at the bottom, replace the old flint with a new Zippo flint, and then replace the flint screw. Allow fuel to saturate the wick before lighting.

Is the street chrome finish prone to scratches?

The street chrome finish is designed to have a vintage look and may show signs of wear and minor scratches over time, which contributes to its character. While durable, it can be scratched like most metallic finishes.

Can I use this lighter in high altitudes?

Zippo lighters are generally more reliable at high altitudes than most butane lighters due to their design. The windproof capability also aids performance in varying conditions.

Troubleshooting

Lighter does not ignite.

Ensure there is sufficient Zippo lighter fuel. Check that the flint is properly seated and not worn down. If the flint is worn, replace it. Check that the wick is properly saturated with fuel.

Flame is weak or sputtering.

The lighter may need refueling. Ensure the wick is fully saturated. Check that the windproof shield is clean and free of debris. Make sure the fuel insert is correctly seated.

Lighter smells strongly of fuel.

This can occur if overfilled or if the fuel insert is not properly sealed. Allow excess fuel to evaporate in a well-ventilated area. Ensure the fuel insert is correctly placed.

Difficulty opening or closing the case.

Ensure the fuel insert is correctly seated within the case. Check for any debris obstructing the hinge mechanism.
