TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Gas Category: direct vapour pressure I3B/P – butane/
isobutane/propane mix. Combustibles: Use only Optimus
100,110,220,230,450g gas cartridges certied to the EN417
standard. US/Canada only: Alternatively, a rellable bulk
LP-gas tank with a max. capacity of 20 lbs (9 kg) may also be
used with an adapter (Optimus Adapter sold separately). Only
use hoses certied to UL569,CSA8.1 or CSA8.2 to connect to
the adapter. It may be hazardous to attempt to t other types
of gas canisters.
Gas Consumption (per burner): EU: 2.3kW nominal EN521
US/CA: EN417 disposable gas cartridges: 3.4kW; 240g/h;
11‘600BTU/h. Rellable propane cylinder max 20 lbs(9kg):
1.8kW; 6‘200BTU/h
Injector size of stove: 0.37mm
1SET UP STOVE
1. Lay out fuel hose to full length and make sure that it is not
twisted in any place.
2. Check the O-ring in the valve connector before each use
for damage (see under 5. Maintenance). FIGURE [1]
3. Fold out legs of the stove. Legs are in place when unfolded
until resistance is felt. FIGURE [3]
4. Fold out both control valve handles and make sure that
they are fully closed (turned fully clockwise), even if only
one burner will be used.FIGURE [4]

2CONNECT STOVE TO GAS CANISTER
1. Hold onto the canister fuel adaptor and screw the canister
counterclockwise tightly. Tighten by hand only and be
careful not to damage the threads when you connect the
gas canister.
2. Always keep the gas canister/cylinder in upright position
while connecting to the stove. The stove is designed to run
on vapour pressure only. FIGURE [5]
3. Always ensure that the stove is placed on a rm horizontal
surface before using it.
4. Allow plenty of free space around the stove, at least 1.25m
(4ft) on each side and 1.5m (4.5ft) above it.
NOTE: Optional use of 20 lbs (9 kg) propane gas tank (US,
CA only): the stove has a pressure regulator built into the
housing. It needs to be connected with a certied high
pressure hose directly to the tank without an exterior pressure
regulator. Otherwise the ame will be too low. FIGURE [5]
WARNING
Risk of burning or serious injuries due to gas leakage
hazard.
Never light the stove if you detect a hissing sound or the smell
of gas after tightening the canister to the stove. The gas has
an additive with a foul smell. Never use a stove that smells of
gas.
• Do not use stove if damaged or if it does not operate
properly.
• Never over-tighten fuel canister when connected to stove.
Overtightening can damage stove or canister causing fuel
to leak.
• Use extreme caution when using stove in temperatures
below freezing. In freezing temperatures, O-rings can
stiffen and leak fuel (see General Safety Information).
• Always check for fuel leaks before and after lighting the
stove.
• Keep highly ammable fabrics away from stove, such as
outdoor clothing, sleeping bags, tents etc.
5
• Never leave a burning or hot stove unattended.
• When a canister change is necessary, please follow steps
1-5 of this manual carefully.
3USE THE STOVE TO COOK
1. Always light up and use your stove with the canister in
upright position to withdraw vapour and to avoid large are
ups. Light only one burner at the time. FIGURE [6]
2. Open the control valve approximately one turn counter-
clockwise and light the burner. The ame ring should be
complete and the ame should be mostly blue and
non-pulsating.
3. Adjust the control valve to get the ame you want.
4. CAUTION: accessible parts may become very hot. Do not
leave this stove unattended while the stove is in operation;
keep children and pets away from the stove at all times.
5. If the output is weak, it could mean the gas is running out,
or that the canister is too cold. Turn off the stove and let it
cool down. Make sure there is no open ame nearby when
changing the gas canister.
TIPS FOR OPTIMAL USAGE:
In cold weather, the butane/isobutane/propane mix is
adversely affected by the cold. The gas mix becomes less
efcient at 0°C (32°F). The butane ceases to vaporize and the
stove runs solely on isobutane and propane. If the propane
runs out, you can only use the rest of the container at
temperatures above freezing.
• Keep the gas canister warm inside your jacket or in your
sleeping bag at night.
WARNING
Overheating and explosion hazards
• Keep solid combustibles at least 1.25m (4ft) away from the
top and 1m (3ft) from sides of a burning stove or a stove
that you are in the process of lighting.
• Keep ammable liquids and vapors at least 8m (25ft) away
from the top and sides of a burning stove, or a stove that
you are in the process of lighting.

• Never attempt to light a stove if control valve has been left
open. If control valve is left open, close it immediately and
thoroughly ventilate area before lighting stove. Failure to
ventilate area can result in an explosion.
• Never use cookware with a diameter larger than 230mm
(9in). Pan plus food must not weigh more than 4 kg (8.8
lbs.) per burner side. FIGURE [7]
• Never place and operate two or more stoves together.
• Never operate stove with empty or dry cookware.
4TURN OFF, COOL AND PACK STOVE
1. Turn off the stove and double-check that both ames are
completely extinguished.
2. Allow stove to cool for at least 10 minutes before moving it.
3. Disconnect the gas canister after having double checked
that the ame is completely extinguished and that gas
supply is fully turned off by turning the control valve handle
fully clockwise. When used with a rellable LP-gas cylinder
turn off the gas at the supply cylinder when the stove is not
used. If stove is stored indoors, detach and leave cylinder
outdoors.
4. It is normal for a small amount of gas to zz out when you
unscrew the gas canister.
5. Fold in pot support legs, stow fuel hose in the base of the
stove and store in stuff sack.
CAUTION
Burning hazard due to incorrect handling and storage
Storing fuel canisters near any heat or ignition source, or
where temperatures exceed 50°C (120°F) can result in the
canister exploding.
• Never move a burning or hot stove.
• Never transport or store the stove with the gas canister
connected.
• Always store fuel canisters in a well-ventilated area away
from any possible heat or ignition source such as: water
heaters, stoves, pilot lights, furnaces or where temperatu-
res exceed 50°C (120°F).

5MAINTENANCE
• The stove should be wiped clean with a wet, lint free cloth. If
needed use a mild cleanser, e.g. dish-washing liquid.
• Before each use, check the O-ring where the stove connects
to the gas canister. FIGURE [1] Leakage may result if the
O-ring is not in place, or if it is worn or damaged. Replace
the O-ring by teasing it out with a tool such as the blunt end
of a sewing needle. Never use a sharp or pointed object that
can damage the seal surfaces. Fit the new O-ring with care
to avoid damaging it. Only use original Optimus O-rings (Art.
No. 8019247) for this purpose.
• Do not modify the stove. Only qualied individuals are
allowed to do additional service. For major repairs send the
stove back to Optimus.
