  1. Ensure the torch is turned off and the safety lock is engaged.
  2. Turn the torch upside down. Locate the butane gas filling hole at the base.
  3. Insert the nozzle of your butane gas can into the filling hole. Press down firmly for 3-5 seconds. You may hear a hissing sound, which is normal.
  4. Repeat this process until the gas gauge (if visible) indicates "MAX" or the torch is fully filled.
  5. After filling, allow the torch to sit for at least 10 minutes for the butane to stabilize before use.
