• Eliminate all sources of sparks or flames where the alcohol is stored or

• Never fill the canisters while still in the stove. Never pour fuel through

the burner openings in top of the stove (fig. 1, page 3).

• Overfilling, spilt alcohol and hot objects can cause severe burns.

• Denatured alcohol burns with almost invisible flame, so great damage

can arise before you notice the danger.

• Mop up any spilt alcohol immediately to prevent uncontrollable

• Do not smoke when handling alcohol or when operating the stove.

• Fill the canister to the maximum capacity only. Alcohol expands in the

canister when heated. Overfilled alcohol can cause uncontrollable

burning inside the stove.

2.3 Operating the device safely

• Use long matches or long lighters to light the burner.

Quickly remove your hand as soon as the burner ignites.

• Wear proper clothing when operating the stove.

Do not wear hanging garments which can catch fire.

• Let the stove cool down to ambient temperature before you touch it

• Keep the area surrounding the stove and interior parts free of grease,

fat, alcoholic substances, plastic or inflammable cloths (for instance

curtains, towels, kitchen utensils).

• Use only pots and pans with flat bottoms and with a maximum

diameter of 23 cm (9"). The pots and pans should be large enough to

cover the heating element. The use of undersized utensils will expose

a portion of the heating element to direct contact and may result in

ignition of clothing.

Proper sized utensils will also improve efficiency.

• When cooking ensure that pans and pots are securely in position.

Recommended is the use of pot holders (fig. 2 2, page 3,

• Never allow pot handles to extend beyond the edge of the stove. Turn

pot handles inward, but not extending over other burners. This will

minimize the possibility of spillage, ignition of flammable materials

and/or serious burns.

• Be careful when heating grease or oil. Grease and oil catch fire when

exposed to great heat.

• Use only dry pot cloths to prevent the formation of steam. Do not use

towels or the like instead of pot cloths as these can catch fire.

• Only operate the device when you or another person can attend to it.

Pots boiling over can cause smoke and fires.

• Move the burner control (fig. 2 1, page 3) to the off position before

•Do not use the stove as a heater.
