Setup and Preparation
- Ensure the area is well-ventilated and free from any ignition sources (e.g., open flames, pilot lights, electrical sparks, hot surfaces).

Operating Instructions: Refilling Your Device
The Bernzomatic 5.5 Oz Butane Refill features a universal fueling tip designed to fit most butane-compatible devices.
- Invert the Bernzomatic butane refill can.
- Align the universal fueling tip with the refill valve on your device.
- Press the can firmly down onto the refill valve. You should hear a hissing sound, indicating that butane is transferring.
- Hold in this position for approximately 5-10 seconds, or until a small amount of liquid butane escapes from the refill valve, indicating the device is full.
- Release the can and allow any excess butane to evaporate.
- Wait a few minutes after refilling before attempting to ignite your device to allow any residual butane vapor to dissipate.
Storage
- Store the butane refill can in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area.
- Keep away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and ignition sources.
- Do not store in vehicles or areas where temperatures can exceed 120°F (49°C).
- Store upright and ensure the cap is securely in place if applicable.
Maintenance
This product is a single-use refill can and requires no maintenance. Ensure the universal fueling tip is clean and free of debris before each use to ensure a proper seal during refilling.
Troubleshooting
Device Not Refilling:
- Ensure the butane can is inverted during refilling.
- Check if the universal fueling tip is properly aligned with the device's refill valve.
- Verify that the device's refill valve is not clogged or damaged.
- Some devices may require a specific adapter (not included with this product).
Leakage During Refill:
- This can occur if the tip is not perfectly aligned or if the device's valve is worn. Try adjusting the angle or applying more firm, steady pressure.
- Ensure you are in a well-ventilated area to allow any leaked butane to dissipate safely.
