Important Notes

Always ensure adequate ventilation when using indoors, and store unused butane canisters in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. While the magnetic locking system significantly reduces the risk of incorrect installation, users should visually inspect the connection before each use to confirm a secure fit.

Do not attempt to modify or disassemble the stove. Keep the unit away from children and pets, and always allow the stove to cool completely before storing.
